A question about pasteurized foods when pregnant.

1 Answer

Answer :

The risk is to your baby. Unpasturized juices, as well as other raw foods could lead to a food based illness. There was just something in the paper warning anyone at risk not to eat raw cold cuts,lunch meats etc. I think the main risks would be from large scale processing where quality control is tougher. Doing your own like you are using shouldn’t be as risky. But I’d like to hear what others think.
