My mom keeps making kambu for me saying its good for the baby. I do like it but just want to know if its actually fine to have regularly during pregnancy. anyone here eats it?
It is actually great! I made kambu rotis and had them with spicy curry to satisfy my cravings. It is super filling and healthy, so definitely give it a try.
My MIL actually made me kambu porridge during my second trimester because it is rich in iron. She said it is very healthy but advised not to eat too much in summer as it is warm.
Yaar, kambu is actually really good, especially for iron deficiency. I used to make khichdi out of it. Just don't overdo it because it can be heavy to digest.
Kambu is highly nutritious as it contains iron, fiber, and calcium, which are great during pregnancy. However, moderation is key since it is a warm grain. It is always best to discuss any major diet changes with your doctor.
Haan na, kambu (bajra) is super healthy! It helps so much with energy levels. Just make sure to drink lots of water when you eat millets so it digests easily.
When I asked my hospital nutritionist, she said kambu is great for managing energy and iron. But she suggested avoiding it if you have severe acidity. Always run your diet chart by your doctor first.
