My mom made cabbage sabzi today and then someone told me cabbage isnt great during pregnancy. Now im confused, i used to eat it all the time before. Is it actually fine or should i be careful with it now? Im in my first trimester.
Cabbage is fine and nutritious, we made it as a simple poriyal often. The only thing my family stressed was to wash it really well and cook it properly. My doctor agreed cooked vegetables are safest, so avoid raw cabbage salads.
Cabbage was actually great for me since it is low in sugar and filling, helped during my GD diet. Just cook it well, raw veggies always made me wary. As always, balance it with your overall meal plan from the dietician.
