My family recently made rice beer at home, and I was wondering if it has any effect during pregnancy. Is it safe to consume rice beer while expecting, or should it be avoided completely?
During my pregnancy, I completely avoided all local fermented drinks and alcohol because I didn't want to take any chances. It's just a matter of a few months. Safe pregnancy is the priority.
Any form of alcohol, including home-brewed rice beer, can easily cross the placenta and affect baby's development. There is no safe limit for alcohol in pregnancy. Please avoid it strictly.
With twins, I didn't even have time to think about drinks, but seriously, alcohol of any kind is a strict no during pregnancy. Rice beer is still fermented alcohol. Keep it away for these 9 months!
I'm trying to conceive and have completely cut out alcohol. Even traditional drinks like rice beer have alcohol content, right? Better to be safe and avoid it completely.
Oh god, please stay away from any beer, even if it's homemade rice beer! Your baby doesn't need a party inside just yet. Stick to coconut water for now, beer can wait!
Apart from the alcohol risk, fermented rice drinks can spike your blood sugar levels significantly. It's really not safe for the baby. Please avoid it and consult your doctor for safer beverage options.
