Pregnancy guidance
Safe with precautionsDry pearl tapioca is safe with precautions during pregnancy when cooked completely into puddings or beverages. It delivers bland, easily digestible carbohydrates and trace minerals, making it gentle on an unsettled stomach. Simmer pearls in boiling liquid until they become completely translucent and soft throughout. Pair tapioca pudding with pasteurized milk and fresh sliced fruit to boost protein and calcium.
