Is popcorn ok for pregnancy?

Question

Movie cravings are real and i really want popcorn. Just the plain homemade one, not too much butter. Is it fine to snack on during pregnancy or better to avoid?

Gauri Banerjee · Answer

Oh absolutely! Popcorn is great for fiber, so don't stress too much about munching on it during movie nights. Just avoid the heavy movie theater cheese ones.

Popcorn is perfect because it takes literally 2 minutes to make when you are starving. Just don't burn it like I always did because of pregnancy brain!

Popcorn is actually a low-calorie, high-fiber snack which is great for digestion. I used to air-pop it at home with very little salt after my daily light walks.
