They say it helps with digestion, but honestly, always better to ask your gynac first before trying anything new. During my time, I didn't eat any dried fruit without asking my doctor because some things can cause body heat. Just a quick call to your doc will make u stress-free, na!
Honestly, I was looking up this exact thing last week! Apparently, they are great for constipation, which is so common during these phases. I am hoping to conceive soon, so planning to add a few to my breakfast. Do u eat them raw or soak them?
Arey, prunes are like a magic pill for that jammed digestion, seriously! Just dont eat the whole packet in one go unless u want to spend the entire day in the toilet, haha. Stick to two or three a day and your tummy will thank you.
Yes, they are very good, especially for the constipation that comes with iron tablets. Don't overthink it, just eat 2 or 3 daily with your morning dry fruits. No need to eat too many, just keep a balanced diet and drink plenty of water.
Mere ghar pe my MIL told me to eat 2-3 prunes daily when I was struggling with potty issues, and it really worked. She used to soak them in water overnight saying it cools down their taseer. But yes, dont eat too many at once otherwise stomach might get upset.
Actually, when I had my checkup at Cloudnine, the clinical nutritionist there specifically added prunes to my diet chart for fiber. But please double-check with your hospital dietician or doctor once during your next visit. They will give you the exact quantity based on your body's needs.
Oh, I remember panicking when I accidentally ate a handful of prunes in my first trimester and read some scary stuff online! Honestly, nothing happens, they are completely safe and actually helped with my acidity. Just eat them in moderation and you will be absolutely fine, dear.
