Pregnancy guidance

Safe with precautions

Roasted whole turkey with meat and skin is safe with precautions during pregnancy when properly cooked. It supplies iron, zinc, and complete animal protein to meet elevated gestational protein recommendations. Verify with a meat thermometer that the breast, thigh, and wing joints all register 165°F. Reheat any leftover turkey to 165°F before eating later in the week.
