Pregnancy guidance

Safe with precautions

Raw ripe red tomatoes are safe and beneficial throughout pregnancy when washed thoroughly. They supply vitamin C, potassium, folate, and lycopene to support maternal hydration and fetal development. CDC advises washing whole tomatoes under running water before slicing so that the knife does not transfer bacteria from the skin into the flesh. Slice washed tomatoes into salads or sandwiches, though reduce portions if you experience pregnancy heartburn.
