Can pregnant women drink honey and pollen on an empty stomach?

Patient's question:

Honeybee pollen is beneficial for beauty, so if pregnant women drink honeybee pollen, it will be good for both the fetus and the pregnant woman, right?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, considering honey and pollen can be consumed on an empty stomach in the morning, drinking it on an empty stomach is also more beneficial for nutrient absorption. Regular consumption of honey and pollen can have health benefits, including laxative effects, beauty and skincare, cancer prevention, weight loss, and more. However, when consuming it, it's important to pay attention to other nutrient intake and maintain a balanced diet. Additionally, people with allergic constitutions are not recommended to drink it to avoid allergic reactions. Those with allergic constitutions who want to consume it should start with a small amount to see how their body reacts. If there are no issues, they can continue drinking it, or they can choose to drink it after meals to reduce the risk of allergies.
