I had buckwheat (kuttu) during navratri and now im second trimester so eating it more often. Wondering if it's actually a good choice during pregnancy or should i limit it. Anyone include it in their diet?
Kuttu is super quick to cook when you are balancing office work and pregnancy. I just whip up a kuttu cheela in 10 minutes for breakfast. It keeps you full for longer, which is great for avoiding those mid-work hunger pangs.
I just delivered my baby two months ago and I ate kuttu a lot, especially during the festive season. It really helped me with my morning energy levels and kept my digestion clean. Go for it, it's a great option!
Buckwheat or kuttu is actually very healthy and much cheaper than those expensive imported grains like quinoa. It's packed with iron and fiber, which helps keep your health in check so you can avoid unnecessary hospital checkups or extra blood tests. Do include it in your normal diet!
I felt so weak in my first trimester and was looking for something healthy that wouldn't make me bloated. When I started having kuttu khichdi, I felt so much more energetic and nurtured. It’s truly a wonderful food for both you and the baby.
Yes, kuttu is great during pregnancy because it's gluten-free and keeps your blood sugar stable. I used to make kuttu cheela or parathas during my fasts and normal days too. It is highly nutritious, just don't overeat it as it can be warm for the body.
