Dried fruits are a popular snack among many people because they are made from dried fruits, making them relatively healthy compared to other snacks. But pregnant mothers are a very special group, and everything should focus on the baby in their belly. Therefore, today we will talk about whether it is possible to eat dried fruits during winter pregnancy?
The production of real dried fruits is done through a drying process. During the production process, no additives are added, such as sugar, salt, essence, pigment and preservatives. Therefore, dried fruits are a natural food. However, during the drying process, the swollen sugars, fats, proteins, and various minerals are concentrated, even some heat-resistant antioxidants, dietary fiber, and vitamins are also concentrated. Only vitamin C and vitamin B1 will decrease.
Even though dried fruits can help the human body with insect control and minerals such as potassium and calcium, they can also supplement the body with dietary fiber. Due to the concentration of various natural components in dried fruits, the sugar content and calories of dried fruits are higher than those of fresh fruits. Therefore, it is necessary to consume them in moderation every time, and dried fruits cannot replace fresh fruits.
Moreover, whether pregnant or not, when purchasing dried fruits, it is important to pay attention to the labels on the packaging. Non fried fruits are the best option, and attention should be paid to whether there are any additives. It is advisable to choose natural dried fruits without added sugar or salt.
