I don't have a midwife appointment for 3 weeks, so does anybody know if it's okay to have some while pregnant? I was only going to add a teaspoon to my benefiber I take every night just to give my diet a boost (I haven't been able to keep down a lot of fruit and veggies) TIA

Ring your local pharmacy and speak to the pharmacist
No it is not!!
I am a vitamin consultant who works in pharmacy. I have spoken to a naturopath and a pharmacist about this previously for another person. Herbs are to be avoided and there are other ingredients in this product that are not safe during pregnancy.
Always check before taking any supplements in pregnancy.
Hello Anonymous - Kelly here from the IM team. I'd recommend speaking to a professional about this one. If we post it and someone says yes - and it isn't, then I would be heartbroken!!
Maybe try to see a GP? Ask a pharmacist? Anything on the labels?
Big hugs! xKelly
