I love patta gobhi sabzi but my saas keeps saying avoid it now. Im in second trimester and craving it honestly. Is there really something to worry about or just a typical ghar wala myth?
I am currently 5 months pregnant and I love eating steamed cabbage rolls! But I always make sure it's cooked really well at home. Is anyone else eating raw cabbage or is everyone strictly cooking it?
Absolutely safe, just don't eat it raw. Make sure it is washed thoroughly and cooked completely to kill any bacteria. I ate patta gobhi ki sabzi throughout my pregnancy without any issues.
Haan, you can eat it, but my MIL always says to boil it in warm water with salt first before cooking to clean it properly. It's a great traditional way to make sure there are no germs or worms left in the leaves.
I am currently planning my pregnancy and was actually wondering about this too! From what I read, it's fine but we should avoid eating it raw in salads. Cooked cabbage should be perfectly safe, right?
Yes, you can eat it, but make sure to discuss your diet with your doctor first, especially if you have thyroid issues. My gynac checked my TSH regularly and told me to limit goitrogenic foods like raw cabbage, so always consult your doctor.
Yaar, don't stress too much about every single vegetable! Cooked cabbage is totally fine and healthy. Just wash it really well, cook it normally at home, and enjoy your food without overthinking.
