We get bel fruit at home a lot and i love it, but someone said avoid certain fruits in pregnancy. Im in second trimester now. Anyone knows if wood apple is okay to eat?
Look, wood apple is fine in small amounts but don't go eating it daily. Excess of anything is bad during pregnancy, so just eat a little piece or have some juice occasionally.
Actually, bel juice helped me a lot with my heavy nausea and acidity when I couldn't digest anything else. Just make sure it is made hygienically at home with clean water.
Wood apple has good fiber and is good for constipation, beta. But don't consume it too much if you have cold or cough tendencies, and always take your doctor's opinion first.
I freaked out when I ate bel sharbat in my 1st trimester because someone said it causes heat. But my gynac said eating a little bit is absolutely fine, so don't worry at all!
It's good for digestion, but honestly, scoop it out and make juice at home instead of buying from roadside stalls to avoid any stomach infection. Keep it clean and simple.
