Pregnancy guidance

Safe with precautions

Raw green tomatoes are safe to eat during pregnancy in modest culinary amounts when washed properly. They provide vitamin C, potassium, and dietary fiber, but contain small amounts of solanine alkaloids that can cause mild stomach upset if eaten in excess. CDC produce guidelines recommend washing green tomatoes under running tap water to remove soil bacteria before slicing. Enjoy a few thin slices in salads, or cook them gently to break down bitter alkaloids.
