i love hakka noodles and chinese ghar pe but now im second guessing the soya sauce. is it okay in normal amount or better to avoid completely? second trimester here.
While a small amount in cooked noodles is generally fine, soy can affect hormone levels. To be absolutely safe, it's best to ask your gynac during your next routine checkup.
Haha, if soya sauce was harmful, half of our pregnancy cravings would go to waste! As long as you aren't drinking it straight from the bottle, you are perfectly fine to enjoy your food!
Soya sauce has very high sodium levels which can lead to bloating and high blood pressure. I preferred avoiding highly processed sauces, focusing on fresh home-cooked food and my daily doctor-approved yoga.
Look, eating a little soy sauce occasionally in your fried rice won't do any harm. Just ensure the food is hygienic and cooked properly at home, no need to overthink minor ingredients.
I ate so much Chinese food with soya sauce during my second trimester and my baby is absolutely healthy! Just don't have it in excessive amounts daily because of the sodium.
