I've heard almonds are good for pregnant women, so I've started incorporating them into my diet. How many almonds is it safe to eat in a day during pregnancy? Don't want to overdo it.
Eating 5-6 soaked almonds daily is more than enough and keeps your dry fruit budget in control too. No need to buy those expensive pre-peeled or flavored ones from premium brands. Just buy regular almonds in bulk, soak them overnight at home, and you're good to go.
Eat as many as you can remember to soak, which in my case was zero because of my pregnancy brain haha! But seriously, around 5-6 is perfect. Right now I can barely find time to eat my cold lunch, so enjoy eating them peacefully while you can!
I used to have 5-6 soaked almonds daily along with my morning walk, and it gave me great energy. It really helped me stay active throughout my pregnancy which was so good for my normal delivery. Just keep a simple, healthy routine that feels good for your body.
I used to worry so much about this! I thought eating too many would cause body heat, so I strictly soaked exactly 4 to 5 almonds every night and peeled them in the morning. Please make sure you soak them because raw ones might be hard to digest, but don't stress over the exact number too much.
Just eat 6 to 8 soaked almonds every morning, it's that simple. There's no need to overcomplicate these small things during pregnancy. Peel the skin off as it helps with better nutrient absorption, and have them with your breakfast.
