Direct guidance
What to know or do
Ask how the animal was sourced and processed and whether non-lead ammunition was used. Avoid liver, raw or undercooked game and meat with an uncertain inspection or cold-chain history.
What changes the answer
- Whether every ingredient is pasteurised or cooked through
- How the food was chilled, stored, handled and reheated
- The exact species, product label, recall or contamination warning

When to get individual help
Check the exact item or situation with a doctor, midwife, pharmacist or relevant clinician; the name of a broad category is not enough for a personal decision.
