Pregnancy guidance

Limit

PayDay candy bars should be limited during pregnancy due to high sugar and sodium content. Whole salted peanuts supply plant protein and zinc, but the thick caramel nougat core adds substantial refined sugar. Frequent snacking on candy bars can disrupt maternal glycemic regulation. Choose plain roasted peanuts instead for all the protein and healthy fats without excess syrups.
