I sometimes add poppy seeds to my food for taste. Now that I'm pregnant, I'm checking everything. Is poppy seed safe for consumption during pregnancy? I just want to be sure.
Beta, khas khas thoda garam hota hai aur isme soothing elements hote hain, isliye badi matra me khana thik nahi hai. Curries me thoda sa swad ke liye dal sakte ho, par alag se halwa banakar mat khana.
Since poppy seeds can contain traces of opiates, it's better to be extremely cautious. Please consult your doctor before consuming it in any form, especially if you have a history of pregnancy complications.
Don't complicate things; just avoid poppy seeds (khas khas) in your cooking for these few months. It's easier and safer to swap it with other thickeners like cashew paste in gravies.
Dear, it is always safer to limit khas khas during these nine months. You can use almond or melon seeds paste instead for rich gravies to be completely safe and healthy.
Having a small amount of khas khas in restaurant gravies occasionally is fine, but avoid using it regularly at home. It's always best to ask your doctor for absolute safety guidelines.
I had a very smooth pregnancy and only ate poppy seeds when they were finely ground in small quantities in festive curries. Just keep your intake very minimal and you'll be perfectly fine!
I avoided poppy seeds entirely during my pregnancy because of the potential risks, and only had light, simple home-cooked food. It's much safer to wait and enjoy all these traditional foods after your delivery.
While a tiny pinch in your regular food like curries is generally fine, it is best to avoid consuming it in large quantities. I completely avoided khas khas halwa or milk during my pregnancy just to be on the safer side.
