Garlic considered as safe food for pregnant women, it also comes with a list of benefits during pregnancy ,however, you should consume garlic in moderation in the first trimester in
order to prevent any negative effect on the foetus
How Much Garlic Can You Eat While Pregnant?
Pregnant women can consume about two to four cloves of fresh garlic each day, this translates to a rough 600 to 1200 mg of garlic extract
But garlic's potential blood-thinning effects may cause uncontrolled bleeding during surgery or labor and delivery,you shouldn't take garlic before, during or after labor and delivery or a cesarean section, also garlic may interact negatively with certain medications, such as anticoagulants like Coumadin, insulin, cyclosporine and saquinavir
Garlic could increase your insulin release and lower blood sugar levels, as well as reduce your iodine absorption, which could lead to hypothyroidism, so you shouldn't take large amounts of garlic that exceed the normal amount of garlic you might consume in your daily diet.
We wish you all the best ,
