Sauerkraut, the sour taste, is still fresh in many people's minds. Not only is it rich in vitamin C and cellulose, but it is also good for your health, and it is also delicious during pregnancy! However, eating sauerkraut is also particular, especially for us expectant mothers. Come and see with me what pregnant women should pay attention to when eating sauerkraut!

Health and safety first.

Choose fresh and clean sauerkraut and store it at a suitable temperature to avoid bacterial growth. Before cooking, don't forget to soak sauerkraut to remove dirt and bacteria on the surface!

Moderate consumption

Although sauerkraut is delicious, you can't be greedy! Pregnant women are advised to eat a small bowl every day (about 100g). Eating too much may upset their stomachs.

Salt intake should be controlled.

Sauerkraut has high salt content, and excessive intake may lead to edema and high blood pressure. Remember to eat less salt or use low-salt seasoning!

Pay attention to the meal time

It is best to enjoy sauerkraut after meals to avoid stomach upset. At the same time, don't eat with high-fat foods, so as not to affect digestion.

Pay attention to allergic reaction

If you are allergic to some ingredients in sauerkraut, such as nitrite, or have a history of allergies, stop eating immediately if you have allergic symptoms, and consult a doctor!
