Pregnancy guidance

Avoid

Raw dry split green peas must be avoided in their uncooked state during pregnancy. Consuming hard, uncooked split peas causes acute gastrointestinal distress, gas, and stomach cramping due to indigestible starches and plant lectins. The USDA instructs that dried split peas must always be simmered thoroughly in water or broth until completely tender before eating. Cook them into a nourishing split pea soup to absorb their rich folate and plant protein safely.
