I love adding fresh mint to my tea or making mint chutney. Now that I'm expecting, I'm unsure about some common herbs. Is mint safe to eat during pregnancy, especially in small quantities?
I’m in my 3rd trimester and currently living on mint water to fight this terrible acidity. It is very cooling for the stomach. Highly recommend it if u are feeling bloated.
My mom used to make fresh pudina and coriander chutney for me whenever I felt nauseous. It is a very safe and traditional way to soothe your stomach during these months.
Mint is perfectly safe in food quantities. Add it to your raita or lemonade, it helps with gas. Just avoid taking concentrated mint supplements or oils without asking your doctor.
Honestly, mint tea was the only thing that kept me sane when I had severe morning sickness. It settled my stomach instantly. Definitely try it if you're struggling to keep food down.
Don't worry, dear, normal pudina in your food is totally fine and actually very good for cooling your body. Just wash the leaves nicely before using them to avoid any infection.
Mint was my absolute savior! I used to have pudina nimbu paani to survive my morning sickness. Trust me, it’s safe and keeps you from throwing up every five minutes.
