Is custard apple good during pregnancy?

Question

Sitaphal is my fav fruit and its in season right now. But MIL said avoid it during pregnancy, idk why. Is it actually fine to eat? thoda confused.

Harshita Chakraborty · Answer

Yes, sitaphal is excellent during pregnancy because it is packed with fiber and vitamin C. Just don't overeat it because it is quite high in natural sugars. Have one fruit a day and you are good to go.

I loved eating custard apples when I was pregnant as they helped with my digestion and morning sickness. It is a very healthy fruit, just make sure you wash it well. Now that I am breastfeeding, I still eat seasonal fruits daily.

Custard apple is very healthy, but if you have gestational diabetes like I did, you have to be extremely careful. It has a high glycemic index and can spike your blood sugar levels quickly. Please consult your doctor or dietitian before having it.
