I love having papad with my meals, but my mother-in-law warned me to limit it now. Is it good or bad to eat papad during pregnancy, like for digestion or anything?
Please be careful because papad is made of lentils or rice starch, and the high sodium can also increase your blood pressure. If you have GD, check how it affects your sugar levels and consult your nutritionist.
I absolutely love roasted papad with chopped onions and tomatoes on top, it's my go-to evening snack! It's totally fine to eat, just try to have the roasted version instead of fried.
Carrying twins meant double the cravings, and I lived on roasted papad to survive the constant metallic taste in my mouth! Just don't fry them, roasting is much better for your tummy.
Roasted papad is perfectly fine to have in moderation! It really helps when you feel a bit nauseous and want something salty and crispy. Just drink lots of water to balance the salt.
Homemade roasted papad is fine to curb cravings, but try to avoid the market ones which have too much soda and salt. If you feel bloating or high BP, then absolutely avoid it and ask your doctor.
Having gone through IVF, I was super cautious about everything I ate. Roasted papad in small quantities is safe, but always listen to your body and your doctor if you feel any discomfort.
I'm preparing to conceive and love having papad with my meals. Good to know that having it roasted is totally fine during pregnancy, will keep this in mind!
It's a quick, easy snack when you are working and need a savory bite. Just stick to roasted papad and don't make it a daily habit because of the high salt content.
If eating papad was bad, half of our Indian babies wouldn't be here! Just don't eat a whole packet in one sitting, especially the deep-fried ones, unless you want major acidity later.
