Women can soak in water with lemon when they are confinement. This is because lemon is rich in citric acid, sugar, vitamins (A, C, B 1, B2), calcium, phosphorus, iron and other elements, which is helpful to improve human resistance and reduce the occurrence of diseases during confinement. Moreover, vitamin C rich in lemon is an antibacterial oxidant, which can resist bacteria and prevent infection.
During the confinement period, because most of the time is rest, the lack of exercise will lead to postpartum constipation. If women drink some lemon soaking water in moderation during confinement, it can stimulate gastrointestinal peristalsis, lubricate the intestines, reduce the time of feces staying in the intestines, and discharge toxins and garbage in time, which can play a good role in cleaning the intestines and relieve postpartum constipation symptoms.
A large amount of vitamin C in lemon has the functions of relieving greasy, purifying the body, eliminating excess fat in the body, and removing wastes and toxins from various organs. Drinking lemon soaking water after delivery is helpful for women to lose weight after delivery and restore their figure to the state before pregnancy, but women should also pay attention to it, because lemonade is sour, so they should not drink too much, otherwise it will easily cause gastrointestinal discomfort, which is not conducive to women's postpartum health.
