By

Here i am with another interesting and healthy entry for my event “Come on – Lets cook buddies” which is shared  by +Aishwarya Srinivasan . Lets see what is that recipe which aishwaraya has got for us today.

Introduction 
It is safe to eat Papaya during Pregnancy, as long as it is Ripe. A Well-ripened papaya is full of Vitamins and  Nutrients. Papaya helps to prevent and control constipation and heartburn. For these reasons, many  doctors recommend that pregnant women eat moderate amounts of ripe papaya. However, if u eat Unripe papaya, it is not safe. An unripe or semi-ripe papaya is rich in a substance called latex that leads to Miscarriage.

Again, this is also a very quick and easy recipe.

Today  aishwaraya has some cooking tips to share with us . Lets see whats that useful cooking tip .  Over to aishwarya 🙂
