Can I eat grapefruit and oranges during confinement?
Women can eat grapefruit in confinement, but don't eat too much. Because grapefruit is cold, if the mother eats too much, it will lead to diarrhea when the baby is breastfeeding. Grapefruit is rich in protein and some mineral elements such as calcium, phosphorus and sodium. If the mother eats properly, these nutrients can be passed on to the baby through milk, which is very beneficial to the baby's growth.

Some lactating mothers will have some mild colds in autumn and winter. Eating grapefruit at this time can cure a cold. Grapefruit not only has anti-inflammatory pharmacological effect, but also has diuretic effect. Therefore, if the lactating mother has a fever or a heavy internal heat, she can eat some grapefruit, so that she can urinate more and gradually reduce some toxins in her body.
