Is methi harmful during pregnancy?

Question

I love cooking with methi (fenugreek) but I heard some things about it during pregnancy. Is methi harmful, especially in the first trimester? I want to be careful.

Don't overcomplicate, cooked methi as part of normal meals is totally fine and healthy.

Not at all harmful in food! Eat your methi parathas happily 😋.

Kalpana Modi · Answer

Normal methi ki sabzi or paratha is absolutely safe. Just avoid drinking methi water or seeds in high quantity.

Methi can sometimes cause contractions if eaten in huge medicinal amounts, better to check with your doctor.
