Pregnancy guidance

Safe with precautions

Raw tamarind pulp is safe during pregnancy when used in normal culinary quantities. It supplies non-heme iron, magnesium, and potassium, which help support red blood cell production and muscle relaxation. Avoid large medicinal doses or concentrated extracts because concentrated tamarind has mild laxative properties. Use a small amount of paste to flavor savory curries or lentil stews.
