Was making some sweets at ghar pe and used a bit of orange food color, then suddenly got worried. Is this kind of artificial color thik hai during pregnancy or should i avoid completely?
Honestly, I was craving red velvet cake so much that I just ate it. Baby is fine, tho he keeps me awake all night now so maybe the sugar is still working!
Actually, my doc said a little bit of food color occasionally is fine but natural colors are always better. Mumbai street food anyway has so much color, had to control myself a lot yaar.
After my IVF journey, I was super cautious about everything and completely avoided artificial colors. If avoiding them brings you peace of mind, definitely go for it.
It is always better to ask your gynac before eating anything with artificial additives. Pregnancy is very delicate, so a quick text to doc will give the safest answer.
I kept my diet very simple and avoided colored junk to stay healthy and save on extra tests. With hospital delivery packages and routine checkups costing so much, staying healthy is best.
