Its mango season and i honestly cannot resist them. But my neighbour aunty said mangoes are too hot for the body and bad in pregnancy. Is that true? im 5 months and dont want to give them up if its fine.
I love mangoes but with my gestational diabetes I had to really limit them. They are sweet so they spike sugar quickly. If your sugar tests are normal a small portion is okay, but do keep an eye on it.
Mango season during pregnancy is the best thing honestly, I enjoyed it so much. A couple of slices a day is totally fine, just don't finish a whole basket in one sitting. The sugar adds up faster than you think.
Beta in our home we always enjoyed seasonal mangoes, they are full of good things. Just eat in moderation and not on a fully empty stomach. Everything in balance is the old rule.
