Ceviche when pregnant?!


Question: Ceviche when pregnant!?
Since is is technically cooked (chemically) can a pregnant woman eat ceviche!?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
It's fine!. As with ALL food you need to get it from a reputable source not a street stand for example!. Somewhere that you know or can reasonable perceive as clean!. Ask when it was made and what grade fish/or at least how fresh the fish is that is used (as with the other answer sushi is the highest grade and most expensive)!. If the source is good, there is no reason not to enjoy this or even sushi!. There is nothing wrong with asking what a place got on a health inspection!. If it is from a home be smart about it, just because cousin bob prepared it does not mean he knows how to avoid food borne illness!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It's not a good idea to eat seafood, also it is cooked, but by lime juice, which doesn't heat it up to the proper temperature to kill food borne illnesses!. Doctor's advise you to limit your chance of food poisoning, since there is a higher than likely chance with ceviche, I would advise against it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I do not see a problem, either!.!.!.But the risk is much higher when you are pregnant!. As human beings we are exposed to different viruses everyday!.!.and our bodies can handle it!.
When pregnant!. Your unborn baby does not have those defenses in place!. Take that in consideration!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Make sure it is made with sushi/sashimi grade fish and you'll be fine!.
