Pregnancy guidance
Safe with precautionsSalted sesame seed kernels are safe with precautions during pregnancy due to their added sodium. They deliver plant calcium, zinc, and iron, but salted processing raises total salt intake quickly. Moderate your portion sizes and favor unsalted seeds when using them frequently in home cooking. Shake a teaspoon over stir-fried greens or noodle bowls for crunch.
