Pregnancy guidance

Safe with precautions

Raw edible-podded peas are safe and nutritious during pregnancy when washed properly. They offer crisp hydration, vitamin C, folate, and gentle dietary fiber that satisfy snack cravings. CDC advises washing the whole pods under clean running water to remove agricultural dust and surface bacteria. Snap the stem ends and enjoy clean pods with hummus or pasteurized tzatziki dip.
