My MIL keeps soaking kali kishmish at night and giving me in the morning. She says it helps with blood but I just wanted to check na if its actually fine during pregnancy. Anyone been told the same?
Yes, black raisins are actually excellent because they are packed with iron, fiber, and potassium. My gynac specifically suggested having them soaked overnight because soaking makes them easier to digest and helps prevent acidity. Just stick to 5-10 daily so your blood sugar stays normal.
Oh God, my energy is zero these days in this final stretch, but haan, black raisins are literally my savior. I soak some overnight and have them first thing in the morning to keep the dreaded pregnancy constipation away. Trust me, at 34 weeks, anything that keeps your stomach clear is a blessing!
I’m currently planning to conceive and my MIL was just telling me that soaked black raisins are amazing for active iron levels. Are you guys having them daily? I'm thinking of starting it too since I want to make sure my body is ready.
They are generally considered very healthy, but honestly, it is always best to double-check with your gynac once before starting anything daily. Everyone's body and sugar levels are so different during pregnancy. Better to get her green light first just to be absolutely safe.
I had some complications in my second trimester, so I became extremely careful about every single thing I ate. While raisins have great benefits, definitely ask your doctor about the right quantity for you. It's always better to consult your specialist rather than trying things on your own.
