using olive oil in a salad or cooking with it is one thing but drinking it is another issue entirely. i know of no contraindications for using olive oil while pregnant or otherwise but i am not sure your reasons to do so are valid. i have never heard that a shot of olive oil with cranberry juice every day for a week will flush out a sludgy gall bladder -- i am very skeptical. drinking this much olive oil could cause a laxative effect. i do not think it would harm your baby but i have to tell yo that there are absolutely no studies that would prove safety. when you are pregnant the safety of you and your unborn baby is in the careful professional hands of your ob-gyn. before doing this i would suggest that you get a patient-specific okay.
can you drink olive oil when pregnant? . i have gall bladder sludge and is very painfull. i heard if you drink a shot of olive oil and glass of cranberry juice every day for a week it will flushn them out. just want to make sure its safe for baby?
