Trying to add more fresh juices to my diet since morning sickness is finally settling. First trimester almost done. Which juices do u all find good and easy to digest? want something healthy for me and baby.
Apple or beetroot juice is great, but honestly, eating the whole fruit gives much better fiber! With two babies pushing on my bladder, too much juice just meant running to the toilet every 5 minutes. Better to eat fruits and drink simple water!
Honestly, whatever juice doesn't make you throw up is the best juice! I survived on packed apple juice because squeezing fresh fruits felt like an olympic task with my low energy. Just make sure it doesn't have artificial preservatives.
My mother-in-law used to give me fresh tender coconut water instead of heavy juices, which was excellent for acidity. If you want juice, pomegranate or sweet lime (mosambi) juice is very good, but ask your doctor if you have gestational diabetes.
Fresh orange juice is wonderful because the Vitamin C helps absorb iron. During my delicate IVF journey, my doctor advised strictly avoiding outside juices to prevent any stomach infections. Making fresh juice at home is the safest way to nourish your body.
Fresh pomegranate juice is great, but I always worried about raw bacterial infections from outside stalls! I bought an electric juicer and made it at home after washing fruits in warm water. Please ensure whatever juice you drink is 100% pasteurized and fresh.
Oh, sweet lime (mosambi) juice was my absolute lifesaver during those exhausted, nauseous days. It gave me instant energy when I couldn't digest anything else. Listen to your body and have what feels comforting, you are doing a great job.
