My MIL soaks almonds and gives me every morning, but a friend said evening is better for some reason. Now im confused what the right time actually is. Does timing even matter or am i overthinking?
We always soaked almonds overnight and ate them first thing in the morning, peeled. They digest better that way beta. 4 to 5 a day is plenty, no need to eat a big handful.
Any time of day is fine, but soaking them overnight and having in the morning is the old trusted way. My amma did it for me. If you have any acidity issue then have them with food instead of empty stomach.
My MIL insisted on soaked badam every morning empty stomach during my pregnancy. Honestly it became a nice little routine. You can eat them any time really, morning is just what elders prefer.
I used almonds as a mid morning snack so my energy stayed up between meals. Soaked ones in the morning are great. Just keep the count small, nuts are calorie dense.
