Pregnancy guidance

Safe with precautions

Barbecue sauce is safe with precautions during pregnancy when used in culinary moderation. It adds smoky flavor, but most commercial brands are heavily sweetened with high-fructose corn syrup and contain significant sodium. Excessive sugar and salt can complicate gestational glycemic control and fluid balance. Brush a light glaze onto grilled chicken rather than using heavy dipping bowls.
