Is bournvita safe during pregnancy?

Question

My family drinks Bournvita regularly, and I'm wondering if it's safe for me to continue drinking it now that I'm pregnant. Is Bournvita safe during pregnancy, or should I avoid it?

It is perfectly fine to have it occasionally for taste. Just don't overdo it, and try to focus more on simple plain milk or curd for your calcium needs.

Yaar, it is actually safe in moderation, but it has a lot of sugar. I used to have it once in a while when I craved chocolate milk, but don't drink it like three times a day.

My saas used to insist I drink plain milk with saffron or almonds, but I really wanted Bournvita! She finally agreed to let me have a little bit of it once a day for my mood.

Yes, you can have it, but try not to add too much sugar since Bournvita itself is quite sweet.

I felt like having chocolate milk all the time in my second trimester, so I drank Bournvita with warm milk. It was my absolute comfort drink and my doctor said a little bit is totally fine.

I am currently 5 months pregnant and drinking milk is so hard for me without some flavoring! Is Bournvita really safe to have daily, or should I switch to a proper pregnancy protein powder?
