Hi,

Thanks for your query.

Both consumed frequently can lead to formation of kidney stones. Although both are XXXXXXX sources of vitamins, consumed rarely they are of help both to you and pregnant women.

The combination as such is not bad, any of them consumed frequently is bad.

Hope, I answered your query.

Please let me know if there are any other concerns.
