Pregnancy guidance

Safe with precautions

Cooked beef sausage is safe with precautions during pregnancy when reheated until steaming hot. It provides complete protein, bioavailable heme iron, and zinc, though saturated fat and sodium levels are elevated. Heat the sausage to an internal temperature of at least 165°F to eliminate the risk of Listeria monocytogenes from handling. Eat in moderation alongside fiber-rich vegetables like sautéed peppers and onions.
