Information
Pregnancy is a period when a woman must take care of her health and be very vigilant about what she eats. The refined pipoune is a very popular cheese in France but it must be consumed in moderation during pregnancy. Indeed, the refined pipoune is a soft cheese, based on raw milk, which contains bacteria and pathogens which can be dangerous for a pregnant woman. In addition, the refined pipoune also contains a lot of saturated salt and fats which are to be avoided during pregnancy. Therefore, it is better not to consume refined pipoune during pregnancy. It is preferable to consume pasteurized hard cheeses to avoid the risks linked to pathogens and bacteria. If you really want to eat refined pipoune, it is important to check the expiration date and ensure that it is not expired. In addition, it is recommended to consume the refined pipoune in small quantities and consume it in moderation.
All these recommendations are given as an indication based on ANSES information and cannot replace the advice of a health professional.
