Mom made kathal sabzi and i love it, but MIL stopped me saying its not good for pregnancy. Im in my second trimester. Is there really any issue ya just a myth?
My hospital dietitian advised me that eating ripe jackfruit in moderation is fine, but to avoid it if you have high blood sugar. It's always best to ask your own doctor's team about your specific diet plan.
Yes, it is safe, but eat only 2 or 3 pieces because it is quite heavy to digest. Avoid eating it late at night so you don't face bloating or acidity issues.
Honestly, I had crazy cravings for ripe jackfruit and ate it with no issues at all. Just be prepared for some heavy gas afterwards, so enjoy it at your own risk!
Many elders say it produces too much body heat, so I would suggest you check with your gynac first, especially if you are in your first trimester, to be absolutely safe.
My doctor told me that jackfruit has good nutrients but can cause sudden spikes in blood sugar. If you don't have gestational diabetes, a small portion is perfectly fine to consume.
