Mom got me some wood apple (bael) saying its good for digestion. Im in my first trimester and a bit careful about what i eat right now. Is it actually safe in pregnancy?
Beta, wood apple (bel) is very good for stomach heat and digestion, but eat it in very small quantities. Too much of anything is not good when you are expecting.
If you are buying wood apple juice from outside, just don't risk it because of hygiene. Better to make it at home quickly if you really crave it, or check with your doc.
I felt so confused about what to eat in my first trimester. I wanted to try bel juice, but I was scared and decided to skip it until I asked my doctor.
