The Jab We Met actress also said, “My only post-dinner sweet treat would be plain homemade yogurt mixed with chopped dates, cashews, and pistachios.”
Celebrity nutritionist Rujuta says during pregnancy, you’ll be informed about all the important nutrients to you and your baby. It can be a little dizzying. Hence, consuming homemade meals and seasonal foods are the essential nutrients a pregnant body needs.
