@dr_michela: The list of foods you need to avoid in pregnancy is growing exponentially and, if you ask me, its getting a little ridiculous. Soon you’ll only be allowed to have boiled water…! Here is my medical opinion on some of the common ones - backed by science and a splash of realism. #pregnancy #health #womenshealth #healthtok #doctorsoftiktok

Whenever i hear these foods to avoid I always wonder like, I’m sure pregnant women in Japan have been eating sushi or women of the Mediterranean have been eating cured meats like the weird rules we place over here seem to forget about how women eat around the world

You know what got me….. “no soft cheeses, Brie etc because it’s not pasteurised” butttt In Australia all our cheese are pasteurised so I could actually eat it my whole pregnancy and thought I couldn’t 😭

There was also a listeriosis outbreak associated with rockmelon. So not one outbreak.

As a venue manager for Japanese venues for decades I would pepper your advice with the sushi, sushi rice has mirin added to it and the extra sugar and the fact that most sushi rice is left to cool to room temp is a breeding ground for bacteria. I would not risk it. It was never about the raw fish the rice is potential risk

Thank you for sharing this doctor. How about the milk/cheeses/ice cream that do not specify pasturised milk in the supermarkets on the back label, can we still assume they are using pasturised milk since that is a requirement in Australia?

Thank you for this 🙏 I'm in my second pregnancy and have found if you followed the list strictly to be so stressful and restrictive.
