Pregnancy guidance

Limit

Starburst fruit chews should be limited during pregnancy because they are dense in added sugars and corn syrup. Even though they contain fortified vitamin C, they lack dietary fiber and essential prenatal minerals. Frequent snacking on sticky fruit chews also increases the likelihood of tooth decay. Satisfy a fruity craving with fresh sweet grapes or sliced kiwi.
