Can you eat cheese during pregnancy: safe and prohibited types.

According to The Sun: Pregnant women are allowed to eat halloumi, so it's great news for fans of this cheese!

However, it is important to ensure that the cheese meets two simple criteria before consumption.

• Fresh – this means it has not been left open in the refrigerator for a long time and is not expired.
• Made from pasteurized milk – this means the milk has been heated to kill bacteria. Supermarket cheese indicates on the packaging if it is such.

Since most people usually cook halloumi, it means that any bacteria that survived after pasteurization or pouring are unlikely to end up on the plate.

Overall, halloumi is a safe cheese to consume during pregnancy.

As for other cheeses to avoid during pregnancy, these include some soft cheese varieties, blue cheeses, and unpasteurized cheeses. Remember to follow these recommendations to protect your health and the health of your child!
