    Dear friends

    My IL friend priyanka told the side effects of asafoetida or hing.i surf in net and got the information.Hence pregnant ladies pleas avoid it

    SIDE EFFECTS AND CAUTIONS

    Caution is advised when using the herb, as eating raw asafoetida herb has been known to induce symptoms such as nausea and vomiting in different patients. Additionally, the continuous and regular utilization of the herbal remedies made from the asafoetida over very long periods of time can induce irritation in the throat, it can lead to the accumulation of gas in the abdominal region, it can cause diarrhea, and it may also lead to the development of a distinct burning sensation during urination in patients. Pregnant women must avoid the use of this herb in any form during the term of pregnancy as possible side effects can disturb the pregnancy. The herb has been known to induce miscarriage, and it is also known to affect the periodicity of the menstrual cycle.

    Good effort Chitra........its gonna help our IL friends.:thumbsup

    One more thing i want to add is.........Hing also increases your body temperature(thats why we put hing in some dishes during winter) and increase in body temperature should be strictly avoided when pregnant.

    So ladies....please DONOT eat it when pregnant.


    Love,
    Priyanka

    thanks lavanya but during pregnancy time only its recommended to avoid. In other normal conditions we can use.for gas removal ginger garlic is best it helps in digestion and removes the gas and avoid stomach problem and never allow the body to become heat

    Ladies,

    Hing can be eaten at any quantities.....but its only during pregnancy u should strictly avoid it!
    Its a spice and it has its own good qualities as well.

    Chitra,

    Dont worry bebe......see Hing they say causes miscarriage due to increase in body heat. Touchwood u r fine now.:bowdown Just stop using it from today. Thats all. It will prevent any such thing in future!
