We made arbi sabzi at home and I ate it, then someone said avoid taro in pregnancy. I am in second trimester and now wondering if it is okay. Do you eat arbi while pregnant?
Oh god, I barely remember what I ate yesterday, let alone during pregnancy! Taro root... hmm. I think I had it sometimes, but mostly my brain was like 'must eat anything edible'. Seriously though, best to ask your doc if you're not sure, especially if you have any issues.
As someone with PCOS, I always felt I had to be extra cautious about what I ate during pregnancy. Taro root (arbi) is nutritious, but I'd say just have it in moderation, like with everything else. If you have any specific health concerns, it's best to confirm with your gynac, just to be on the safe side, okay?
Actually, I had gestational diabetes, so I had to be super careful with anything starchy or high in carbs, and taro root is one of those. While it's generally safe, if you have GD or are at risk, it's vital to check with your doctor or dietician for portion control and how it fits in your diet. Don't take chances.
Haan, taro root is generally safe! It's quite healthy and good for you. My MIL used to make delicious 'arbi ki sabzi' for me. Just make sure it's cooked properly and in moderation. Enjoy your food, mama!
Arbi? Haan beta, it's generally considered good, ghar pe toh bante rehte hain. It has good fibre. Bas theek se dhoke, pakake khaao. If you are prone to gas, some people find it gives them a bit, so keep that in mind. Otherwise, it's fine, but if you have any doubts, pooch lo apne doctor se.
