Pregnancy

Tahini is a very versatile dip that can turn the blandest snacks into scrumptious bites. It is full of nutrients like vitamin E and packed with phosphorus, magnesium and iron. Having tahini every so often is great to nourish your body. But mummies should watch out for the high-fat content! Eating too much can lead to unwanted weight gain.

Postpartum

Mummies can enjoy a bit of tahini after giving birth! There are many minerals and vitamins that are great to help with a mummy's recovery. However, it's worth being mindful not to eat a lot as tahini has a lot of oil. Even if they’re good fats, it can lead to weight gain.

Breastfeeding

Mummies can benefit from including a bit of tahini in their diet! The baby will benefit a lot from nutrient-rich sesame paste. Just watch out for your portioning, as tahini has a lot of fat and might lead to you piling on unwanted pounds!

Baby

Tahini is sesame seeds that are ground into a smooth paste. Babies can eat tahini because of the nutritional benefits. But make sure to limit to small portions, as it has a lot of fats. If you buy store-bought sesame paste, choose the sugar-free varieties and check that there are no additives.
