Pregnancy guidance

Safe with precautions

Fresh egg whites are safe with precautions during pregnancy and must be cooked until completely opaque and firm. They provide pure dietary protein and riboflavin with zero fat or cholesterol. Consuming raw egg whites carries a risk of Salmonella infection and inhibits biotin absorption due to raw avidin protein. Cook egg whites completely in scrambles, omelets, or thoroughly baked recipes.
