As a rule, during pregnancy, it is recommended to limit its consumption of pork sausage. Pork sausage contains pork and can be a vector of harmful bacteria, such as listeria and salmonella, which can be dangerous for your health and that of your baby. You can occasionally consume pork sausage during pregnancy, provided that it is well cooked. Pork should be well cooked until it is completely white and without trace of pink. In addition, you should avoid consuming smoked pork sausage because it contains conservation agents and nitrates that can be harmful to your health and that of your baby. It is important to keep in mind that processed foods, including pork sausage, can contain high levels of salt and fat. Therefore, it is advisable to limit your consumption of pork sausage and choose healthier foods for your pregnancy.
