Women should pay more attention to diet during menstruation, do not eat cold food or drink cold drinks, and do not drink carbonated drinks. Otherwise, it is easy to make women tired and weak, which is a manifestation of iron deficiency in the body. Carbonated drinks contain phosphate, which will react with iron, making it difficult for the human body to absorb iron. Moreover, the sodium bicarbonate in carbonated drinks will be neutralized with gastric juice, which will reduce the digestive ability and bactericidal effect of gastric acid, which is very unfavorable to health.
Precautions during menstruation:
1, not suitable for sexual life: menstrual period, endometrial shedding, surface formation of wounds. If you have sex, it is easy to introduce bacteria and make them retrograde into the uterine cavity, causing intrauterine infection.
2, not suitable for eating too salty food: too salty food will increase the salt and water storage in the body. Symptoms such as headache, emotional excitement and getting angry easily appear before menstruation.
3, not suitable for drinking strong tea, coffee: this kind of beverage has high caffeine content, which is easy to stimulate nerves and cardiovascular, leading to menstrual pain, prolonged menstrual period and excessive menstrual blood.
4, should not eat cold fruits and vegetables and cold drinks: cold food will reduce the speed of blood circulation, and then affect the contraction of the uterus and the discharge of menstrual blood, resulting in adverse menstrual blood discharge, causing menstrual pain.
5, not suitable for eating seafood: most seafood is cold, known as "the yin of the yang." After cold food enters the esophagus, the blood vessels in the gastrointestinal tract contract when it is cold, which weakens the digestive ability of the gastrointestinal tract, resulting in diarrhea and other phenomena.
6. It is not advisable to take a bath or a basin bath: the cervix is slightly open during menstruation, and it is easy for the bath and basin bath to make sewage enter the uterine cavity and cause inflammation.
