InformationThe Harissa is a condiment from the Maghreb and very popular in different regions of the world. It is a spicy paste based on strong peppers, olive oil and spices. It is very popular with people who love spicy flavors.
If you are pregnant, you can eat Harissa, but you should do it in moderation. Indeed, strong peppers can cause irritation and heartburn, which is not good for the baby and the mother. In addition, it is possible that the spices and herbs used in the Harissa can increase your estrogen levels, which can lead to risks for you and the baby.
Therefore, it is advisable to avoid the Harissa during pregnancy. If you decide to eat Harissa, make sure it is in small quantities and to choose a variety without too many spices. You should also request the advice of a doctor or healthcare professional before eating Harissa.
