Is sprouted wheat germ safe to eat in pregnancy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, but: You should only consume it in baked products. It is a good source of folic acid, an important vitamin in pregnancy. Raw sprouts may be contaminated with bacteria which could harm your baby. Thanks for trusting HealthTap!
