Can pregnant women consume bird's nest? Things to know.

Many families have the habit of using bird's nest during pregnancy. However, there is no general medical recommendation stating that pregnant women need or should use bird's nest. Since every pregnancy is different, the safest thing is to consult an obstetrician or nutritionist before deciding, and not to use it based on word of mouth.
Why is it necessary to ask a doctor first?
- The nutritional needs and health status of each pregnant woman are different (gestational diabetes, high blood pressure, allergies, etc.).
- A pregnancy diet needs to be balanced; a single food cannot replace a diverse meal or the doctor's recommendations.
- The doctor will know what medications or vitamins you are taking to provide appropriate advice.
If the doctor agrees, what should you pay attention to?
- Origin and food safety: choose products with clear origins, no bleaching, no strange additives. See how to distinguish real and fake bird's nest.
- Cook thoroughly and cleanly: clean thoroughly, steam until cooked, use clean utensils and do not store for long (see proper storage methods).
- Sugar content: limit adding a lot of rock sugar, especially if you are at risk of or have gestational diabetes.
- Allergies: if you have an allergic disposition, be cautious and stop using it if there are any abnormal symptoms.
- Do not self-administer high doses: this is food, no need and should not use excessively.
