they say yogurt or yakult contains live bacteria or sometimes its unpasteurized. is it safe to eat while pregnant? im 28 weeks pregnant now and im craving for these milk products!!!! thanks.... :)
Not all bacteria are bad for you. You NEED certain bacteria in your intestines to be able to digest food properly. The bacteria in yogurt and yakult are the good kind.
Yakult is always made with pasteurized milk. Yogurt can be made with unpasteurized milk but that is very unusual. If unoasteurized milk is used it will always say so on the label.
It is perfectly safe for you to eat yogurt or drink yakulot during pregnancy. In fact it's good for you, so obey your cravings and go for it!
