My MIL keeps making kaddu sabzi and i used to avoid it before pregnancy honestly. Now she says its healthy for me. Im in first tri, is it actually good or just a ghar wala thing?
Kaddu is generally very safe and healthy, but if you have any specific complications like gestational diabetes, it is always safer to ask your doctor or dietician. It's better to get a customized diet plan.
Having PCOS made me very careful about my diet during pregnancy. Kaddu has a decent glycemic index and lots of fiber, which is great for managing insulin levels. Just cook it with minimal oil and enjoy it safely.
Yes, pumpkin is highly nutritious, but please check with your gynac once if you are eating it in large amounts. It's always best to get confirmation from your doctor about what suits your body type.
Yes, kaddu is excellent! I ate it a lot during my pregnancy for fiber, and even after my C-section, simple kaddu soup was great for digestion. It's very light on the stomach and full of nutrients.
Kaddu is actually a great, budget-friendly vegetable that is packed with nutrition like folate and iron. Instead of buying expensive fancy organic veggies, simple local vegetables like kaddu do the job perfectly and save you money for upcoming hospital delivery expenses.
Kaddu is amazing as it's low in calories but high in essential vitamins like A and C. I loved having it baked or in soups after my evening walks, which my doctor had allowed. It kept me energized and healthy.
