Mushrooms during pregnancy

Of the 1 mushrooms entries here, 1 is fine. Usually it's how something was cooked or stored that decides it, not the food itself — each entry says which, and why.

Every mushrooms entry, with a verdict

Sorted with the ones worth knowing about first. Avoid means skip it entirely; take care means it depends on how it was prepared.

  • All types of edible mushrooms

    Safe

    It is safe to eat mushrooms during pregnancy, but make sure that the mushrooms you want to try are edible. Cooked or dried mushrooms are good as they are highly nutritious and are rich in vitamins, minerals, and trace elements. Avoid raw mushrooms as they can be carcinogenic.
