Pregnancy guidance

Limit

Duck fat should be limited during pregnancy due to its dense saturated fat and calorie content. The high heat of commercial rendering ensures the fat is microbiologically sterile and safe from pathogens. However, regular consumption of rendered poultry fat can elevate maternal LDL cholesterol and displace healthier unsaturated fats. Use small spoonfuls occasionally to roast potatoes or vegetables rather than as an everyday cooking fat.
