Brinjal is rich in nutrients, but since I had thyroid issues, I made sure to check everything with my doctor first. It's fine in moderation, but regular doctor follow-up on your diet is always best.
Having PCOS made me very careful about my food choices. Brinjal is generally safe and contains good fiber, but eat it in moderation and don't overdo it.
My saas strictly told me not to eat baingan because of old beliefs, but my doctor said it's totally fine in moderation. Just cook it well and don't eat it daily if your family is superstitious.
I am 5 months pregnant and my mom told me to avoid brinjal, but I really crave baingan bharta! Did anyone else eat it during their pregnancy without any issues?
Brinjal is good for health, but as a working mom, I preferred quick, easily digestible meals. It can cause gas or acidity for some, so just eat a small portion if you are short on time to rest.
Honestly, brinjal is perfectly fine to eat as long as it's fresh and cooked thoroughly. Don't believe in old myths, just maintain a balanced diet and consult your doc if you're unsure.
With twins, I was eating everything, but I kept brinjal to a minimum just because it can sometimes cause acidity. It's healthy but can make you gassy, so watch out, haha!
