Is it bad to have cravings in pregnancy?

Cravings are an exaggerated appetite for a food or food that the pregnant woman feels the need to eat immediately.

In general, it is not a bad thing to have cravings and they can be satisfied, as long as this does not mean that the pregnant woman's diet is no longer varied and balanced, as this would lead to nutritional deficiencies.
