I usually take apple cider vinegar for general health, but now that I'm pregnant, I'm not sure if it's safe. Can I continue to have apple cider vinegar during pregnancy?
I used to crave tangy things and asked my doctor about ACV, but she said to only have fully pasteurized ones in very small amounts. Honestly, it's safer to avoid it to prevent any stomach infections. Please take care of your health!
Beta, don't take these modern vinegars during pregnancy, they are too strong for the stomach. If you have acidity, drink some cold milk or eat a banana. Stick to safe ghar ke nuskhe and ask your doctor.
My mom never allowed me to have ACV during my pregnancy as it's very acidic and can upset the stomach. She used to give me fresh coconut water or nimbu paani instead. It's always better to stick to simple, traditional things.
With twins, my acidity was off the charts, but I stayed away from ACV because pasteurized ones are hard to find. Unpasteurized vinegar can have bacteria, which is a big no-no. Just stick to normal warm water, haha!
I am planning to conceive and was wondering this too because I love ACV in the morning! Is it safe during pregnancy or should we avoid it completely? Let me know if anyone's doc allowed it.
Please be extremely careful with things like ACV during pregnancy. Unpasteurized products can carry harmful bacteria like listeria, which can be dangerous for the baby. I personally avoided it completely to be absolutely safe.
