Methi is great for iron, which you'll need lots of! Just don't overdo it, otherwise you'll be dealing with double the gas, trust me.

Oh, methi muthiya and hot methi parathas with ghee are my absolute favorites! Safe to eat and absolutely delicious in winter.

I had thyroid and tracked everything I ate. Cooked methi leaves are healthy, but always check with your doctor to make sure your diet aligns with your blood reports.

Preeti Sanghvi · Answer

Methi leaves are fine in normal food like parathas. Just don't go drinking methi seed water or consuming it in excess.

I was very cautious during my IVF journey. My doctor said cooked methi leaves in normal food quantities are safe, but avoid high doses of methi seeds.

Savita Karunakaran · Answer

Methi leaves are packed with iron and fiber. Just make sure they are washed thoroughly to avoid infections, and consume in culinary amounts.

I ate methi thepla and cooked methi sabzi in moderation and didn't face any issues, but I kept the quantity limited.
