Yes, you can eat yogurt during pregnancy, provided you choose one that contains probiotic bacteria. These bacteria are beneficial for health, especially during pregnancy. They help maintain intestines integrity and health and prevent constipation and infections. In addition, yogurt is an excellent source of calcium and vitamins, which your body and your baby need. It is also rich in healthy proteins and fats and can be an excellent addition to your diet. However, when you choose yogurt during pregnancy, you need to make sure it is pasteurized. This ensures that all pathogenic germs and toxins that can be dangerous for the baby are eliminated. You must also make sure to choose yogurts without preservatives, without coloring and without added sugars. In summary, yogurt is a healthy and nutritious food that you can eat during pregnancy, provided you choose safe and healthy varieties.
