The context changes in pregnancy
Hydration, nutrition, and care needs are individual, and decisions may depend on medical history and the progression of the pregnancy. Therefore, a commercial message cannot replace the recommendation of the care team.
What we do not know enough about
The fact that a product has a specific isotopic composition does not automatically demonstrate that it is indicated in pregnancy. Evidence for a special population must be relevant precisely for that population.
What is prudent
Do not follow consumption protocols or treatment promises based on websites, testimonials, or advertisements. If you are interested in DDW, discuss the label and the reason for the choice with your doctor or midwife who knows your situation.
Conclusion
Prudence is not alarmism. It is the correct way to approach a period in which recommendations must be personalized.
