Saas wants to make ladoos for me for strength and i love that haan. But there are so many types, gond, methi, dryfruit. Which one is actually good during pregnancy? Pls suggest.
During my discharge planning, the hospital nutritionist suggested whole wheat or ragi ladoos with ghee for postpartum, but for pregnancy, she warned against too much sugar. Ask your clinical dietician if safe ingredients like almonds and oats can be used in your ladoos.
I'm currently planning my pregnancy and reading up on traditional diets. I've heard gond ladoos are amazing but some people say they are too "hot" for the first trimester. Which ones did you guys eat in the early months?
Stick to simple homemade atta or ragi ladoos with dry fruits, dear. Avoid methi or heavy gond ladoos in the early months as they can be too heavy or warm for the body. Just eat one a day with warm milk, it will give you good strength.
Homemade dry fruit or ragi ladoos sweetened with dates or a little jaggery are excellent options for energy. However, traditional items like gond or methi ladoos should be taken cautiously. It is best to consult your gynac before adding them, as some ingredients can cause heat.
