Pregnancy guidance
Safe with precautionsPapad flatbread is safe during pregnancy when cooked thoroughly until crisp. Made primarily from spiced legume flours, it supplies small amounts of plant protein and folate. Roast or microwave papad rather than deep frying to minimize excess cooking fats, and check labels for high sodium levels. Serve a single crisp papad alongside lentil dal and steamed rice.
How to read this
During pregnancy you need more of certain nutrients each day, like folate, iron and choline. Each bar shows how much of that daily amount 100 g of Papad provides. 100% means 100 g alone covers the whole day; smaller numbers show its share. A ✓ marks 100% or more.
