What are the vegetables to avoid during pregnancy?
Trying to be careful with my diet now that im pregnant. I keep hearing some veggies are not good for pregnancy but no one tells me which ones exactly. Can someone list out what i should stay away from?
Mainly avoid raw or undercooked sprouts, unwashed greens, and raw papaya. Wash everything really well and cook properly to be safe. Most veggies are great otherwise, dont over restrict yourself.
Beta in our homes raw papaya and too much raw sprouts are avoided. Always wash leafy vegetables thoroughly, there can be soil and germs. Cooked veggies are best, just have a good variety.
The main concern is raw or unwashed ones, not the vegetable itself usually. Cook them well, wash thoroughly and you are fine. If you have any specific condition, your doctor may add to the list.
