Someone gifted me this mushroom powder supplement and im in my second trimester now. Honestly not sure if its ok to take during this time. Has anyone used it while pregnant? thoda confused hu.
I would avoid mushroom powder completely. Many of them contain wild mushroom extracts or adaptogens that aren't well researched for pregnancy. Stick to normal, cooked button mushrooms instead.
My MIL strictly said no to any herbal or organic powders from outside during my pregnancy. She said ghar ka fresh khana is best. Better to avoid such powders and eat normal food.
Actually yaar, skip these trendy powders. Normal mushrooms are totally fine if cooked well, but powders can have unknown additives. Don't take risks during these 9 months.
When I was staying at my parents' house, my mom always preferred whole fresh mushrooms over any packaged powders. It is safer to eat fresh, well-cooked foods during these months.
I totally understand wanting to add healthy supplements for the baby's growth, sweetie. But please be cautious with mushroom powders. It is always safer to double check with your doctor first.
