Turmeric During Pregnancy

Pregnancy is one of those times in a woman‘s life that is both challenging and exciting in equal measure. All said and done, it is also a phase in which expecting mothers should be particularly careful about what they eat and drink. During this time, women are generally advised against taking strong medication, allergy-inducing food substances, etc. However, turmeric may be a good addition to a pregnant mother’s diet regimen. On diyhealth.com it goes over the health benefits of turmeric. Let’s see how to use turmeric safely during pregnancy.

1# Ask Your Gynecologist

The reason why pregnant women are advised not to take herbal supplements or consume certain condiments is because there is little to no research on these substances, unlike certain prescription drugs and medications. While your gynecologist may advise you not to take herbal supplements, there is no clear recommendation on the use of turmeric. Given that it contains so many vital properties, you may consider taking a little bit after getting clearance from your doctor for better health and resistance against ailments.

2# Eat Turmeric Naturally

There is a myth regarding cryptic pregnancy that turmeric supplements can cause a miscarriage. The theory is that the miscarriage occurs as the uterus gets stimulated before pregnancy, which can have a devastating effect. But what about eating or ingesting turmeric in its natural form? Cooking food with turmeric as a spice or even chewing a small amount of it can be a great way to ingest it without the hazards of turmeric supplements. When taken naturally along with food, turmeric can support good health and resilience.

3# Have It With Milk Or Tea
