Switched to olive oil for cooking some time back and now im wondering if its fine to continue in pregnancy. Also thinking of using it on my belly for the stretch marks. Anyone using it regularly?
Beta olive oil is fine for eating and even some people massage the belly with it for stretch marks. For cooking it is good, light on stomach. For massage just do gently and ask your doctor if u have any skin issue.
I switched to olive oil for salads and light cooking and my dietician was happy about it. Good fats and easy on the body. Nothing risky about it during pregnancy.
Totally safe, I cooked with olive oil all through both pregnancies. It is actually a healthy oil so no worries there. Just use it like any normal cooking oil.
We mostly use it for cooking at home and it never caused any problem. My mom even suggested it for the bump skin. Eating wise it is one of the better oils honestly.
