I was wondering are fava beans good for pregnancy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Fava beans: They are likely fine to eat if we'll washed and cooked. However, they hold no miraculous benefit for pregnancy and according to the G6PD Favism Association, a case has shown that the intake of fava beans during pregnancy can cause favism in babies because of a possible G6PD deficiency
