How much quantity of saffron is safe during pregnancy?
Im 5 months along and my mom got me good kesar saying to add in milk for the baby's complexion and all. I know its fine in small amount but how much exactly is safe per day? dont want to overdo it.
Just a few strands, dont go heavy on it. The whole kesar-milk-for-fair-baby thing is just a tradition anyway. I had a little in milk now and then, both pregnancies, no issue. But keep it minimal.
A tiny pinch, like 2-3 strands in milk occasionally, is what most people stick to. Large amounts are not advised in pregnancy. Honestly I'd ask ur gynac before making it a daily habit, especially in early weeks.
Beta kesar ki bahut thodi maatra hi leni chahiye, like a few strands in warm milk, not more. Hum log usually start it after the first few months. Thoda hi, zyada nahi. And just confirm once with ur doctor.
My family gave me kesar milk but only a few threads and only in the later months. Small quantity is the key word. It's more for tradition and warmth. Run it past ur doctor too, just to be safe.
