I Have Been Craving Karela: Kareena Kapoor's Pregnancy Diet

IANS, 20 Sep, 2016 01:49 PM
  • I Have Been Craving Karela: Kareena Kapoor's Pregnancy Diet
Kareena Kapoor Khan broke her silence and answered all that was asked by the leading nutrition and wellness expert Rujuta Diwekar in an online talk. The one hour long talk was released on Rujuta Diwekar's official Facebook page yesterday. 
 
The video is the first in the series of three online talks on food, fitness and pregnancy. During her conversation with Rujuta, Kareena was seen shattering some of the age-old myths linked to pregnancy and the associated diet.
 

"I think everybody has been thinking that I am overeating these days, which I am not. It is not important for you eat more just because you are pregnant and carrying another person inside you. Rujuta and I firmly believe that one needs to carry on doing what she has been doing before getting pregnant, just stick to your normal routine," Kareena stated.
 
Bebo, as she is lovingly called, admitted craving karela (bitter gourd) ever since she got pregnant. "I really like the taste, I enjoy the taste. Many say that when you add a bit of sugar its bitterness kind of goes away but I don't like that. I like the fact that it has a sort of bitter, pungent taste to it. It is extremely rich in iron and has all kinds of benefits," she revealed.
