Pregnancy guidance
Safe with precautionsFrosted Cheerios are safe to eat during pregnancy as a sweetened whole grain oat cereal. Made from whole oats, they deliver dietary soluble fiber along with full fortification of folic acid, vitamin B12, and zinc. The USDA Dietary Guidelines recommend keeping an eye on portion sizes because the frosted coating adds nine grams of sugar per serving. Measure one cup into a bowl and eat with pasteurized milk to add dietary protein and calcium.
