Pregnant women cannot eat barley and red bean tea. The main function of coix seed and red bean is to remove dampness, which can remove moisture in the body. It is very suitable for people with heavy humidity in summer and in vivo. It can be eaten as a meal, and it is a good product for eliminating dampness and strengthening the spleen. But the quality of barley depends on who eats it. Coix seed is a kind of medicine and food with the same origin, and Chinese medicine thinks it is slippery.
Pharmacological experiments show that coix seed can stimulate uterine smooth muscle and promote uterine contraction, so it may induce abortion. Therefore, pregnant women should not eat barley. In some TCM documents, it is also recorded that coix seed has certain influence on pregnant women and should not be taken.
Pay attention to the following principles in the diet in the early pregnancy:
1, choose foods that stimulate appetite.
Most early pregnant women have poor appetite or taste changes, whether it is sour, spicy, salty or light, they should cater to the preferences of pregnant mothers, and do not avoid too many dishes, so that pregnant mothers can get adequate nutrition supply.
2. Choose foods that are easy to digest.
Such as porridge, dry bread, steamed bread, biscuits, sweet potatoes, etc. , can reduce vomiting.
3, eat if you want, eat less and eat more.
Especially pregnant mothers with severe pregnancy reaction, don't stick to the meal time and eat whenever you want. For example, getting up early before going to bed and eating a few biscuits, bread and other snacks can reduce vomiting and increase food intake.
4. Supplement 400-600 micrograms of folic acid every day.
When the fetus is implanted into the pregnant mother's uterus, neural tubes begin to differentiate and develop. In order to avoid fetal neural tube malformation, it is particularly important for pregnant women to start supplementing folic acid when planning pregnancy. Insufficient folic acid intake has many negative effects on pregnancy, including low birth weight, placental abruption and neural tube malformation.
