Mango season chal raha hai and i am craving it so badly. My MIL keeps saying it causes too much heat in body so dont eat much, but mujhe stop nahi ho raha. Im in my 5th month, can i have one daily or is that too much?
Soak the mangoes in water for an hour before eating, it reduces the natural heat. For mild cravings it is great, but if you feel any stomach pain or discomfort after eating, immediately call your gynac.
Oh I felt so guilty eating mangoes at first because everyone told me it causes heat. But my gynac said it's fine, and honestly, eating them made me feel so happy and relieved during my summer pregnancy.
Mangoes are fine but make sure to wash them properly to avoid stomach issues. Honestly, hospital visits and pregnancy tests are so expensive these days, we can't afford to get sick over simple food cravings. Just eat in limit.
I ate mangoes throughout my pregnancy and even now while breastfeeding. They are actually rich in vitamins, but just eat 1 a day so your body heat doesn't increase too much.
Be careful if you have high blood sugar or gestational diabetes. I had to strictly limit mangoes because they can spike your sugar levels instantly. Do check with your doc once about your sugar reports.
