A. hi mom if done few times it is not going to harm as very little amount of betaine will be absorbed .. so need not worry .. get ur covid test if having sore throat

A. Hello mam if you’ve done it once or twice and if you have not taken it and it is not going to harm your baby. If you don’t want to go for beta Dean gargle is then it is better that you add some salt and turmeric powder to lukewarm water and do gargles with it on a regular basis at least 3 to 4 times in a day and also take steam twice a day to be on the safer side and just protect yourself from any kind of infection because pregnant woman and little weak and are prone to catch infections really fast
