Generally, women tend to abstain from consuming nuts and dry fruits during pregnancy due to their high heat and fat content
The truth is, almonds are completely safe to consume during pregnancy. Rumours and myths that eating nuts during pregnancy can cause nut allergies in babies lack a scientific basis. The only reason to avoid them is when you are allergic to them. If you are allergic to almonds or nuts in general, please consult a doctor before adding them to your diet. But if you were not allergic to them before pregnancy, chances are you will not be allergic even during pregnancy.
However, please note that excessive intake of raw almonds has been linked in some reports to premature delivery. Thus, consuming in moderation is paramount.
A safe and healthy way to consume almonds is by soaking them in water and peeling the skin before consuming. The skin contains tannin, a compound used to keep the nutrients locked in the almond. Peeling off the skin will release the nutrients. Enzymes useful for digestion are also released when the almonds are soaked.
A single serving of roasted almonds provides six grams of protein and three grams of dietary fiber per serving. They also supply a good source of vitamin E, calcium, iron and antioxidants. Almonds are plentiful in monounsaturated fats, which can help lower harmful cholesterol levels.
