Bollywood actress Kareena ditched caffeine when she was expecting Taimur

By Our Special Correspondent


Bollywood actress Kareena Kapoor Khan, who is a proud mother to Taimur and Jeh, has shared some tips that will come in handy for expecting mothers.

The 'Jab We Met' actress shared insights on nutrition for pregnant women in the audiobook 'Kareena Kapoor Khan's Pregnancy Bible: The Ultimate Manual for Moms-To-Be' along with inputs from renowned nutritionist Rujuta Diwekar.

Together, the two address common concerns about maintaining good health during pregnancy, such as how to eat well, the top three foods to have in each trimester, and the exercises that can be included or avoided.

Sharing her nutrition routine, Kareena says: "When I first began working with my nutritionist Rujuta Diwekar, she got me to start the morning with a banana and I've stuck to that. It is excellent for your iron and potassium requirements.

"So, my day always always begins with one banana and five almonds. This has never changed, whether or not I'm pregnant."

The actress gave up on caffeine while she was expecting Taimur back in 2016.

Adding further details about what constituted her breakfast, Kareena says in the audiobook: "Breakfast was typically poha, upma or two idlis. It is the most basic Indian diet and I can't live without it. I stopped all caffeine during Taimur's time. My first pregnancy and all right, I want it to be 100 per cent good.

"I went mostly caffeine free again for my second pregnancy. But I did have half a cup of tea in the morning. I couldn't do my morning Chai."
