Pregnancy guidance
RecommendedHard-boiled eggs are recommended during pregnancy as an ideal and safe source of essential nutrients. They provide rich dietary choline for fetal neural tube and brain development, alongside complete protein and vitamin B12. Boiling eggs until both the white and yolk are completely firm destroys all Salmonella bacteria. Keep peeled hard-boiled eggs refrigerated and eat within one week of cooking.
