Pregnancy guidance
Safe with precautionsRaw chicory greens are safe to consume during pregnancy with proper food hygiene. They provide dietary folate, vitamin A, vitamin K, and prebiotic inulin that supports healthy intestinal flora. Wash the bitter leaves thoroughly under cold running water per CDC instructions to dislodge any soil bacteria or parasites. Combine washed chicory with sweet fruits like sliced pears and a mild vinaigrette to balance its sharp bitterness.
