Someone gifted me a big box of dry fruits and theres lots of khubani in it. I love them but thoda confused if i can eat freely during pregnancy or limit it. Pls tell.
Dried apricots are packed with iron and fiber, but be very careful if you have high blood sugar. I had gestational diabetes and my doctor told me to limit dried fruits because they are high in concentrated sugar. Just have one or two at max.
Yes, my mom-in-law used to give me 2 soaked dried apricots along with almonds every morning. She said it is great for avoiding constipation and improving blood levels. Just wash them well before eating.
They are a great healthy snack to keep your energy up for walks! I used to carry a couple of dried apricots in my bag for post-workout energy, since my doctor allowed light yoga and walks. It really helps curb those sweet cravings naturally.
I read up on this and also asked my doctor during my checkup. Dried apricots are a good source of iron, potassium, and calcium, which are very beneficial. But the doctor advised not to overeat them as they can cause mild bloating or gas.
