We are trying since couple months and my MIL keeps saying bahar ka khana avoid karo while planning. I do eat outside sometimes with friends. Does it really affect conceiving or is she just overthinking? Curious to know.
When I was trying to conceive, I felt so much pressure to eat perfectly. Honestly, yes, too much outside food is not ideal because you don't know about hygiene and ingredients. It’s better to stick to simple, home-cooked meals for good health.
Haha, I know the struggle, especially with cravings! But honestly, while a little bit here and there is probably fine, too much outside food when trying to conceive isn't the best. It's usually richer, oilier, and you can't control the ingredients. Better to focus on fresh, healthy ghar ka khaana most of the time. Save the indulgence for small treats!
Being cautious about your diet is a great step, especially when trying to conceive, more so with conditions like PCOS. Outside food often contains hidden sugars, unhealthy fats, and preservatives, which aren't beneficial. It's not about being 'dangerous' instantly, but more about optimizing your health for conception with fresh, nutritious home-cooked meals.
I used to overthink everything about my diet while trying to conceive! Generally, yes, too much outside food isn't recommended. It often has more oil, spices, and sometimes isn't as hygienic. It's better to stick to ghar ka khaana as much as possible for peace of mind and better health.
