There is no scientific proof to suggest that sesame (til) seeds or gingelly seeds are unsafe during pregnancy. Rich in calcium, iron, oxalic acid, amino acid, proteins, vitamin b, c, and e, til is considered a healthy food. But, there is a common belief, that til is a'heat emitting food' which tends to increase body heat and upset the balance within. Some also say that eating heating foods may cause miscarriages or premature labour. However, there isn't any evidence to support this belief. Many pregnant mums across the world, eat til and til products and show no harmful effects.
