Information

As with most foods, liver sausage can be consumed safely during pregnancy if prepared and consumed correctly. However, as with all foods, it is important to ensure that the liver sausage is fresh and quality, and that it is properly cooked. In the case of liver sausage, it must be cooked at a minimum temperature of 160 ° F (71 ° C) to kill all the possible pathogens that could be present. In addition, it is important to ensure that it is not too cooked, because it could then become rubberous and difficult to digest. It is also important to note that liver sausage is often rich in sodium, and that excessive salt consumption can increase blood pressure and the risk of water retention. It is therefore important to monitor your consumption and choose varieties without salt added if possible. In conclusion, liver sausage can be consumed during pregnancy if prepared and consumed properly. It is important to ensure that liver sausage is well cooked and to choose varieties without added salt, and take care not to consume in too much.
