Hey! We are actually going to add a full note on ACV! The issue is the lack of research, I’m actually not sure if there is any on ACV DURING pregnancy. I would first look at why you are including this and ask yourself if it is still necessary. In things like salad dressings and cooking with ACV, this is not an issue during pregnancy, but when you just drink it straight, it’s a little different. My recommendation if you do use it is to keep it to 1 tbsp and dilute it some with water or add it to tea or something! In this case, I do think unpasteurized is fine for the benefits it provides.
