I have such bad cravings for banana chips these days, can finish a whole packet lol. Im 4 months in. Is it okay to snack on it or too much oil and not good for baccha? Just checking.
Having a few banana chips is totally fine and safe as long as they are fresh and clean. But because of my past experience, I always advise keeping packed outside food to a minimum to avoid any stomach infection. Please eat healthy and take good care of yourself.
I think banana chips should be fine in moderation since bananas are healthy, but I am still trying to conceive and learning about pregnancy diets. It sounds like a lovely, light snack. Hope you are enjoying your journey!
Homemade banana chips made in clean oil are quite good and can help with mild salt cravings. But since packed chips can be high in sodium and cause bloating, don't overeat. If you ever feel severe swelling in your feet or high BP, please check with your doctor immediately.
Actually, salty banana chips really helped me when I had terrible morning sickness and couldn't digest anything else. The saltiness settled my stomach a bit. Try eating small portions slowly, and keep sipping water so you don't get dehydrated.
I used to worry so much about the high sodium in banana chips causing water retention or raising my blood pressure! Having a handful is completely fine, but just don't eat them everyday. It's so hard not to overthink every single snack we eat, right?
I love munching on Kerala banana chips right now! They really help me when I feel slightly empty and nauseous. Do you guys prefer the salted ones or the sweet ones, and how often do you eat them?
Banana chips are okay in small amounts, but they are deep-fried so they have a lot of calories. I prefer having fresh banana or some roasted makhana instead to keep my energy up for my daily walks. Just make sure your doctor has cleared you for light exercise like walking!
In my 3rd trimester, I will eat anything that doesn't require me to stand in the kitchen! Banana chips are great for a quick munch when you are too tired to move. Just keep a bottle of water nearby because they can make you quite thirsty.
Oh absolutely, they are a lifesaver for salty cravings! Just don't finish the whole packet in one sitting, or you'll have to deal with some crazy bloating. Enjoy your snack time!
My mummy always says that eating bananas is great for pregnancy, but outside chips have too much salt and cheap oil. She actually made some fresh, baked banana chips at home for me so that my cravings were satisfied safely.
