A. Protein powders may not be right for pregnant women as they often contain artificial sweeteners like saccharin which can harm the foetus. Some brands of protein powders also have herbs like ginger, anise, liquorice, root, chamomile and others used for performance enhancement which could affect foetal hormones. If you want to use protein powder as a supplement during pregnancy, consult with your doctor to find out which protein powder to use since most powders are made out of proteins such as whey, casein, soy so women allergic to dairy products would have to switch to other organic protein powders safe for consumption during pregnancy.
