Expectant mothers eat more fruits, which is good for both pregnant women and fetuses. Pregnant women should first choose fruits with relatively low sugar content, and the best time to eat fruits is between meals, so that blood sugar will not be too high and hypoglycemia can be prevented. For normal pregnant women, not eating fruit is absolutely taboo, but eating a lot of fruit or even replacing dinner with fruit is even more undesirable; If eaten improperly, it will not only fail to achieve health care effect, but may also cause harm to mother and child. According to the physical needs of pregnant women in different periods, the nutritional supplement of fetal brain development and the nutritional characteristics of fruits in different regions and seasons, various balanced fruit packages for pregnant women are formulated.

From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, after pregnancy, women's constitution is generally hot, and yin blood is often insufficient. At this time, some hot fruits, such as litchi and longan, should be eaten in moderation, otherwise constipation, aphtha and other symptoms of "getting angry" are prone to occur, especially pregnant women with threatened abortion should be more cautious, because hot fruits are more likely to cause fetal movement anxiety. However, some pregnant women have spleen and stomach deficiency, thin stools and pale faces. For pears, watermelons, cantaloupes, grapefruit and other cold fruits, a small amount should be eaten, and occasionally eating lychee may improve the symptoms.

apple

Apples contain phosphorus, iron and other elements, which are easily absorbed by the intestinal wall and have the function of nourishing the brain and blood. This is a mild fruit, which is very suitable for pregnant women. Apples are also rich in lipids, vitamins and other nutrients, especially high content of fine fiber, which is beneficial to the development of hippocampus on the edge of fetal cerebral cortex and to the memory of fetus. Moreover, pregnant women who eat more apples during pregnancy are less likely to develop asthma. Pregnant women can meet the zinc requirement by eating 1-2 apples a day.

Kiwi or Kiwi?

Kiwi is a special kind of fruit, which is a good nutritious food for women of childbearing age. Before or during pregnancy, especially in the first three months of pregnancy, qualified women can often eat kiwifruit. But not for everyone. Because kiwifruit is cold, people with spleen and stomach deficiency should be careful to eat it, people with frequent diarrhea and frequent urination should not eat it, and people with threatened abortion should also avoid eating it.

cherry

Among all fruits, cherry is particularly rich in iron, almost 20 times as much as apple, orange and pear, and also contains carotene (4-5 times more than grape, apple and orange), vitamin B 1, B2, C, citric acid, calcium, phosphorus and other nutrients. Eating more can enrich blood and help gastrointestinal function. If pregnant women have a bad appetite, they should actively eat cherries, which is very helpful to the fetus. Many pregnant women often eat cherries, and the babies born have a red and healthy face.

Autumn pear

Pear is also called fast fruit and jade milk. The ancients called pears "the Sect of Fruits", that is, "the Sect of Hundred Fruits". Because it is fresh and juicy, sweet and sour, it is also known as natural mineral water. China is one of the cradles of Pyrus. Most Asian pears originated in East Asia, and Japanese and Korean are also the cradles of Asian pears. Pears cultivated in China, sand pears and pears are all native to China.

Pear occupies an important position in fruits, and its application scope is wider than that of apples. Few people don't like pears. Pears are cool and can clear away heat and soothe the nerves. Regular consumption can make blood pressure return to normal and improve symptoms such as dizziness, dry throat and excessive internal heat. It is a good choice for pregnant women and babies to eat pears after getting angry. Pears contain more carbohydrates and vitamins, which are easily absorbed by the human body, stimulate appetite and protect the liver. Eating pears can prevent atherosclerosis and inhibit the formation of nitrosamines, thus preventing cancer.

strawberry

Strawberry is rich in amino acids, carotene, vitamin B 1, B2, calcium, magnesium and other substances, which can prevent colds. Pectin and organic acid contained in it can decompose fat in food, promote appetite, strengthen gastrointestinal peristalsis, and promote the growth and development of babies; There are also research reports abroad that strawberries can remove heavy metals from the body. What is more problematic is that strawberry cleaning is more troublesome, and it is afraid of pesticide residues.

grape

Grape is rich in iron, phosphorus, calcium, organic acids, lecithin, carotene and vitamin B 1, C and so on. Pregnant women have insufficient blood color, low blood pressure, poor circulation and cold hands and feet in winter. Eating more grapes helps to improve. More specifically, if pregnant women bleed, grapes can also protect the fetus and help the fetus develop.

grapefruit

Contains natural folic acid. Folic acid is not only very important in early pregnancy, but also essential throughout pregnancy. With the rapid growth of fetal body tissue during pregnancy, pregnant women need a lot of folic acid to meet the needs of the fetus. Folic acid deficiency will not only increase the incidence of pregnancy-induced hypertension and placental abruption, but also lead to megaloblastic anemia in pregnant women, intrauterine growth retardation, premature delivery and low birth weight of newborns. Therefore, grapefruit is also the first choice for pregnant women.
