Pregnancy guidance

Safe with precautions

Braised lamb stew meat is safe and beneficial during pregnancy when cooked thoroughly. It provides bioavailable heme iron, zinc, and vitamin B12 that help prevent prenatal iron-deficiency anemia. The USDA advises braising lamb cuts until internal temperatures reach at least 145°F with a three-minute rest, or 160°F for fork-tender stew meat, destroying Toxoplasma gondii. Combine braised lamb with vitamin C-rich tomatoes and bell peppers to boost iron absorption.
