I'm in my first trimester and my mom says toor dal is very healthy for me and the baby. Just wanted to know if it's really good to include in my pregnancy diet.
I am also trying to conceive and my mother-in-law told me toor dal is very good. It has protein and folate which is actually very helpful in the early stages. So u can surely eat it, but thoda limit me.
Haan, toor dal is totally safe and high in protein, but u must balance it with other foods. Honestly, during my pregnancy, I had thyroid issues so I always discussed my diet chart with my doc during regular follow-ups. Pls check with your doc too to be safe.
I had PCOS before conceiving so I was always very careful about carbs and proteins. Toor dal is good, but I kept my portions in check and combined it with lots of green veggies. It worked well for me, but every body is different so see how it suits u.
Yes, toor dal is very healthy, just make sure to add a little hing or jeera while cooking so it doesnt cause gas. Acidity and gas are normal but if u ever get severe stomach pain, dont wait and ask your doctor. For regular food, ghar pe बनी dal is best.
Oh, I remember during my first trimester, toor dal and rice was the only thing I could digest without throwing up. It's very light on the stomach and gives good protein when u can't eat anything else. Definitely try it with some ghee, it helps with nausea too.
