Pregnancy guidance
Safe with precautionsRaw collard greens are safe during pregnancy provided they are washed thoroughly. They supply substantial folate, calcium, and vitamins A and C to bolster maternal health. CDC advises washing both sides of each broad leaf under running tap water to remove soil and microbial contaminants like Toxoplasma. Slice washed collard leaves into very fine ribbons for slaws, or massage them with olive oil to soften their tough texture.
