Sunanda Nair · Answer

Beta, ragi is very warm and nutritious. Make a nice, thin ragi porridge with milk and a little jaggery, it is very good for the baby's bones.

Ragi is an absolute superfood! It's packed with calcium and iron, so definitely include ragi roti or porridge in your diet.

Ragi helped me manage my sugar levels during pregnancy. Just make it a part of your daily meals, but don't overeat it.

Yes, ragi is excellent for calcium. I had ragi malt every single morning during both my pregnancies and it kept my energy levels up.

Ragi is great, though it looks a bit muddy when you cook it haha! But the health benefits are totally worth the weird color.

Janaki Sahoo · Answer

My pregnancy app constantly recommended ragi because of its high fiber content. It really helps with pregnancy constipation, so definitely try it!

I've been trying to eat healthier lately. Can we make ragi idlis or dosa too? Sounds like a great option for pregnancy.
