Trying to add more protein in my diet, im in 2nd trimester now. My friend keeps saying quinoa is super healthy but its not really our normal Indian food na, so thoda confused if its safe daily. Anyone eating it regularly during pregnancy?
It is a very healthy grain, full of proteins which is good for the little soul growing inside you. Eat nicely and stay positive, God will keep both of you healthy and happy.
I used to eat it a lot when I was pregnant and my toddler is so active now. Dont worry about trying to eat perfect organic stuff all the time, just regular quinoa is great for baby's growth. Enjoy this phase, it flies by so fast!
Quinoa is actually super good during pregnancy, yaar. I used to make quinoa upma and khichdi all the time because it's packed with protein and fiber. Much better than white rice honestly!
With two babies growing inside, I needed double the protein and quinoa was my savior. Just wash it thoroughly before cooking unless u want it to taste like actual soap, haha!
