Pregnancy guidance

Recommended

Raw limes are recommended during pregnancy as a nutritious citrus fruit. They provide vitamin C and dietary antioxidants that support connective tissue and collagen formation. Always wash fresh limes under cold running water before cutting to avoid transferring microbes to the flesh. Use fresh lime wedges to brighten roasted poultry and grain bowls.
