Information

Pregnant women can eat gorgonzola during pregnancy, provided they consume it in moderation. Although the gorgonzola is a parsley cheese, it is important to know that it is also a soft cheese. Soft cheeses, such as gorgonzola, can contain bacteria, such as Listeria bacteria. The Listeria bacteria can be dangerous for the unborn baby and cause serious infections. Therefore, it is preferable to limit the consumption of Gorgonzola during pregnancy and to choose pressed cheeses, such as cheddar, parmesan and gruyère. These cheeses are considered safer than soft cheeses because they contain fewer bacteria. In addition, it is important to remember that all cheeses can contain high levels of sodium, saturated fats and cholesterol. It is therefore important to limit the consumption of cheese during pregnancy, even those considered to be safer. Moderate consumption is recommended.
