My mom keeps adding drumstick in sambar n dal saying its good for me now that im pregnant. I do like it but somewhere read u shouldnt have too much in pregnancy so getting confused. Anyone know whats actually right?
Beta drumstick is full of goodness, very good for strength. But the moringa leaves, some elders ask to be careful in the first months. The vegetable itself in food is fine, ask your doctor if unsure.
Drumstick is wonderful, we put it in sambar and it was a regular in my pregnancy meals. Family always said its good for iron and calcium. Just have it cooked, in normal amounts, you will be fine.
Drumstick is very healthy, lots of iron and good for you. I ate it in dal and sambar through both pregnancies. Some say avoid the leaves in very early days, so just check with your gynac about that part.
