Pregnancy guidance
Safe with preparationThis record contains 62 mg vitamin C and 60 mcg dietary folate equivalents per 100 g of boiled Brussels sprouts in PregNut’s historical USDA-based dataset. These figures describe a food sample, not a suggested serving. Food data and limitations
NIH lists Brussels sprouts among the foods with the highest folate levels; food folate does not replace folic acid guidance or an individualized prenatal plan. NIH: folate sources
Brussels sprouts are a vegetable, not the raw seed sprouts CDC lists as a riskier choice. CDC lists washed produce as a safer choice during pregnancy and says washed-then-cooked produce is safest. CDC: safer food choices in pregnancy
