Avoiding these items and knowing what not to eat becomes really challenging when you’re eating for two.
Sadly, your go-to green drink that’s full of nutrients, is likely unpasteurized.
Fruits and vegetables that haven’t gone through the process can carry bacteria like salmonella.
That’s because toxoplasma is a parasite that can be hiding on unwashed fruits and vegetables.
And when the produce is cut, the parasite can find its way inside and into juices.
And if you think this doesn’t impact a lot of people, you might be surprised.
TheAmerican Journal of Epidemiologyreports that 85 percent of pregnant women are in danger of becoming infected with toxoplasmosis.
It’s also important to cut away damaged or bruised areas, where bacteria can thrive.
Using a small vegetable brush is also wise, ensuring you’ve removed any surface dirt.
