Leafy greens like spinach are amazing for folate, but if you have thyroid issues like I did, limit raw cruciferous veggies like cabbage or broccoli. Make sure you get your thyroid levels checked every month. Cook your vegetables properly to avoid any infections.
I was so paranoid about pesticides that I used to wash all my veggies in warm salt water thrice! Try to eat bottle gourd, carrots, and beetroot for blood levels. Please make sure everything is completely cooked, never eat raw salads from outside.
Green beans, ladies finger, and leafy vegetables are wonderful because they don't spike your sugar levels. I had gestational diabetes, so I had to strictly avoid too much potato, sweet potato, and beetroot. Focus on high-fiber veggies for a stable blood sugar report.
Actually, pumpkin and tinda are super good even if they sound boring, yaar. You can make nice palak soup or methi parathas too. Just keep changing your menu so you don't get bored of eating healthy.
Haan, ghiya, tori aur palak toh pregnancy ke liye best hain, na. Hamare ghar mein toh saas roz green veggies banati thi. Aap bas acche se wash karke, acche se pakakar khao.
I am trying to eat more spinach and carrots, but sometimes green veggies still trigger my nausea in this trimester. Is anyone else struggling to eat healthy vegetables right now? I feel so guilty when I skip them.
