1, the benefits of women's menstruation
First, breast enhancement (menstruation 1-3 days). American studies have found that on the first 1-3 day of menstruation, ovarian estrogen secretion reaches its peak, which can stimulate breast fat accumulation, so it is the best time for breast enhancement. Eating carrots, potatoes, soybeans and nuts in these three days can triple the breast enhancement effect. Studies have shown that calcium can stimulate estrogen secretion. It is suggested that oral calcium tablets should be taken two days before menstruation to indirectly stimulate secretion and breast enhancement.
Second, slimming (the last two days of menstruation). Dutch sports medicine experts pointed out that due to the fluctuation of menstrual hormones, the last two days of menstruation and one week after menstruation are called "high-efficiency period of weight loss", and the fat decomposition efficiency is 2% higher than usual. Experts suggest: in the last two days of menstruation, practice yoga for 20 minutes every day, walk fast 15 minutes, and increase small-scale stretching training; After menstruation 1 week, jogging, cycling or climbing stairs for half an hour every day is the best way to lose weight.
Third, detoxification (the whole menstrual period). The latest research in Singapore found that when menstruation comes, women naturally secrete a protease smaller than cells. This substance can decompose toxins, change blood from acidic to alkaline, and achieve effective detoxification effect. Ensure adequate drinking water every day during menstruation. In addition, you should also eat crude fiber food to help the metabolism of harmful substances.
Fourth, strengthen the brain (last menstrual period 1-2 days). The latest research by German women's health experts found that a special aromatase needed to synthesize estrogen can stimulate the cerebral cortex area responsible for memory. The secretion of this enzyme reached its peak in the last 1-2 days of menstruation. Using this time to recite English words or poems is the best way to exercise your brain.
Five, skin care (the whole menstrual period). According to the survey, 33% women will increase their oil secretion before menstruation and the first 1-2 days of menstruation, which is mainly due to the changes of estrogen in the body. Choosing some skin care products with high moisture retention and pore convergence, combined with a low-fat and high-protein diet, can effectively prevent excessive sebum secretion.
