Sushila Mathrutva Clinic - Multispeciality Clinic, Whitefield

During pregnancy, a balanced and varied diet supports the health of both mother and baby. Certain foods and drinks are best avoided or limited because they may increase the risk of foodborne infections or other pregnancy-related concerns. Avoid raw or undercooked meat, poultry, seafood, and eggs, as well as unpasteurised milk and dairy products. Raw sprouts and foods prepared with uncooked eggs should also be avoided unless properly cooked. Choose well-cooked, freshly prepared foods and wash fruits and vegetables thoroughly. Pregnant women should avoid alcohol completely. Caffeine intake should be limited according to medical advice. Certain fish that are high in mercury should also be avoided, while lower-mercury fish can be included in appropriate amounts. Pregnancy nutrition needs can vary based on individual health, trimester, and dietary preferences. Sushila Matrutva Clinic provides Obstetrics & Gynaecology care in Bangalore, including guidance on healthy pregnancy and prenatal nutrition. For personalised pregnancy diet advice, consult an Obstetrics & Gynaecology specialist rather than making major dietary changes without professional guidance. 1 day ago Call now
