HYDERABAD: With the alarming increase in cases of gastroenteritis, loose stools, and jaundice in pregnant women, Fernandez Hospital has issued a guidance note on safe eating habits this World Food Safety Day (June 7). Dr Latha Sashi, Head, Dept of Clinical Nutrition and Dietetics, Fernandez Hospital shared, “As we celebrate World Food Safety Day with this year’s theme, ‘Prepare for the Unexpected’, it is essential to highlight the importance of food safety for pregnant women dining out. Expectant mothers must take extra precautions to avoid health risks such as gastroenteritis, loose stools, and jaundice.”

Here are key safety measures to follow to ensure a healthy dining experience:

Certifications and Inspections

• Choose restaurants with food safety certifications from local health authorities. Look for visible health inspection certificates.

• Select restaurants known for cleanliness and food safety. Check online reviews for reassurance.

Food Selection and Preparation

• Order dishes that are freshly cooked and served hot. Avoid raw or undercooked meats, seafood, and eggs, as they may contain harmful bacteria and parasites.

• Avoid pre-cut raw fruits and vegetables unless you wash and peel them yourself or the restaurant has trustworthy hygiene standards. Opt for cooked vegetables instead.

• Ensure all dairy products, including milk, cheese, and yogurt, are pasteurized to avoid harmful bacteria like Listeria.

• Avoid raw seafood such as sushi and sashimi. Ensure all seafood is well-cooked to prevent bacterial contamination. Be cautious with shellfish due to their susceptibility to toxins and bacteria.

• Avoid pre-packaged salads from stores or buffets, as they may have been sitting out for a long time and are more prone to bacterial contamination.

• Avoid salads with unpasteurized cheese (such as feta, Brie, Camembert, and blue cheese) and dressings made with raw eggs or unpasteurized milk.

• Avoid salads containing processed meats, such as deli meats, hot dogs, and smoked seafood, which can harbor Listeria.

• Prefer salads made at home where you can control the washing and preparation process. Use pasteurized eggs or avoid raw eggs altogether in dressings. Consider using vinegar or lemon juice-based dressings, which are safer options.

• Keep salads cold until they are ready to be eaten. Use ice packs or a cooler if transporting salads.

Water and Beverages

• Drink only bottled water with intact seals or boiled water.

• Avoid ice in drinks, as it may be made from unfiltered water. Opt for beverages served without ice or ensure the ice is made from safe, filtered water.

• Avoid unpasteurized juices and beverages.

Handling Buffets

• Ensure buffet items are freshly prepared and not left out for extended periods. Hot items should be steaming, and cold items should be properly refrigerated.

• Use serving utensils provided and avoid cross-contamination between different dishes.

General Precautions

• Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water before eating. Use a hand sanitizer containing at least 60% alcohol if soap and water are not available.

• Consume food while it is still hot. Avoid food that has been left out at room temperature for more than two hours.

Street Food

• Street food often lacks proper hygiene standards and poses a higher risk of contamination. Avoid all raw foods or drinks (like pani puri water, jal jeera, sugarcane juice, and sprouts) when eating outside. Prefer to have your favorite snacks made at home.

Leftovers at Home

• Avoid eating leftovers, especially if they have not been stored and reheated properly. Maintain the right food temperature during pregnancy to prevent foodborne illnesses.

When in doubt, ask restaurant staff about how food is prepared and stored. By following these guidelines and being prepared for the unexpected, pregnant women can enjoy dining out safely while minimizing risks to their health and that of their baby.

PUNE: Plant-based food or veganism has slowly but surely caught the attention of many. While many have adapted to the vegan lifestyle either due to health/food restrictions or simply out of choice; plant-based food has surplus benefits and a lot to offer. 1st November is celebrated as International Vegan Day and Sayaji Pune is hosting a week-long Vegan Food festival at their poolside restaurant, Turque to allow guests to truly experience the flavors of plant-based food.

From an ethical point of view, veganism stands to be a great alternative.

Through this food festival, Sayaji Pune looks forward to elevating its guests’ dining experience. While there are misconceptions that when opting for vegan food the options are limited or the food won’t taste that great, the culinary experts at Sayaji Pune are here to change your opinion.

The Vegan Food festival will consist of appetizing flavors and food combinations. From Tomato and Leek soup to Tuscan Panzanella Salad, to Green moong ki Shammi Indian, vegetable dim sum, and Vegetable fried wonton in appetizers, the robust preparations will leave you craving for the mains.
