At that time, in college, I was naive once. I eat in bed for a few days every month, and I gain five pounds a semester!
During my menstrual period, some people do have loss of appetite, indigestion and decreased absorption, but this is only a part of people, not necessarily including you. Besides, how can you eat more without appetite?
As for the improvement of metabolism, it also looks beautiful. Even if the increase is as high as 30%, it will only be enough for you to eat a chocolate cake. Eating too much will still make you fat!
One week before menstruation, due to the influence of hormone changes in the body, girls' bodies and emotions are more prone to fluctuations than usual. Appetite increases and it is easy to edema, so the weight may increase 1-2 kg. After menstruation, the problem of edema will gradually improve, and the weight will become lighter, which is easy to produce the illusion of "slimming".
To repair menstrual injuries and lose weight healthily, three nutrients need to be supplemented.
protein
Complete amino acids and essential amino acids are the most abundant and cost-effective, especially eggs and milk.
? calcium (Ca)
Calcium can inhibit fat absorption, promote fat decomposition and relieve dysmenorrhea! Coincidentally, the foods containing more calcium are still eggs and milk. There are also various beans and bean products. When your period is over, you can finally eat peas and beat peas.
iron
When it comes to enriching blood, many girls think of red dates first. Put a bag in the office and eat one casually, which is convenient and delicious, and can also replenish blood. But don't forget, the sugar content of red dates is really high. 1 piece of 20 kcal, 8 pieces is equivalent to eating a bowl of white rice, and the blood is not made up, so the meat is next to the skin first.
The best blood-enriching food is pig liver. The iron content of pig liver is 20 times that of jujube, and the absorption rate is 20 times that of jujube. Obviously, the efficiency is much higher! If you don't like pork liver, you can also choose lean meat, which has higher iron content than red dates and is easy to absorb.
