You can eat garlic when you are pregnant, but you should pay attention to the right amount as well as the way you eat it. Garlic is rich in nutrients such as protein, fat, sugar, etc., as well as many minerals and vitamins. It is beneficial for pregnant women to eat some garlic in moderation, but they should not consume too much because the allicin contained in garlic is pungent and excessive use may cause irritation to the stomach mucosa and intestinal wall, which may cause stomach cramps and diarrhea in severe cases and may hurt the fetus. In addition, it should not be eaten on an empty stomach. Pregnant women with weak constitution and gastrointestinal weakness are not recommended to eat garlic. Also, pregnant women should not eat raw garlic because it is strongly stimulating and can lead to heartburn and regurgitation, which can easily stimulate the fetus. The healthiest way to eat garlic for pregnant women is to stir-fry it into the dish after patting it flat. For example, roast meat with garlic or roast fish with garlic, etc. Eating cooked garlic can reduce irritation and is also nutritious.
