Pregnant women can drink some milk tea occasionally, but they must not drink too much of this beverage, so as not to cause bad effects on the fetus in their belly. Not only that, pregnant women also cannot eat many foods, including barley malt, coix seed and donkey meat. These foods are very easy to cause miscarriage after eating, and even have the risk of dystocia. 1. Barley malt According to previous experience, women should avoid eating barley malt during pregnancy. As it is said in "Bencao Zheng": Pregnant women should not take too much malt. It is also good at inducing labor and abortion. "Pharmaceutical Chemistry" also says: People with phlegm, fire, asthma and pregnant women should not use malt. 2. Oats It has the power to lubricate the intestines and move them downward, so it has a certain effect of inducing labor. Pregnant women should avoid eating it. 3. Job’s tears According to the experience of ancient doctors, it is advisable for pregnant women to avoid eating it. "Dietary Notes" says: Because of its nature of being good and having a downward tendency, pregnant women who eat it will have a miscarriage. Wang Mengying, a food doctor in the Qing Dynasty, also warned: Job's tears are mainly downward-flowing in nature, so pregnant women should avoid eating them. "Bencao Jingshu" also clearly states: It is forbidden to use during pregnancy. 4. Donkey meat It is mild in nature and sour and sweet in taste. Although it has the effect of nourishing blood and replenishing qi, according to previous experience, pregnant women should avoid eating donkey meat. As recorded in the "Daily Materia Medica": Donkey meat, if eaten by pregnant women, will cause difficult labor. 5. Rabbit It has a cool nature, can cool blood and promote blood circulation, but it can also easily damage human yang energy, so pregnant people should avoid eating it. For example, Wang Mengying, a food doctor in the Qing Dynasty, said in "Sui Xi Ju Diet": Rabbit meat is sweet and cold, and cools the blood. Eating too much will damage the Yuan Yang, and pregnant women should especially avoid it. 6. Sparrow meat Traditional Chinese medicine believes that sparrows can strengthen the yang and stimulate sexual desire. "Sui Xi Ju Diet" says: Bird meat is not suitable for people with yin deficiency and internal heat as well as pregnant women. "Dietary Tips" also says: Pregnant women who eat sparrow meat and drink alcohol will become promiscuous. Eating too much bird brain can cause miscarriage and make the baby's eyesight impaired. Therefore, pregnant women should avoid eating too much sparrow meat and sparrow brain. 7. Eel Commonly known as white eel. It is mild in nature, sweet in taste, can replenish weakness, and is also a high-protein and high-fat food. Doctors in the Song Dynasty believed that eels could cause wind. Wang Shixiong, a food doctor in the Qing Dynasty, also believed that eating too much would cause heat and illness. "Sui Xi Ju Diet" points out that pregnant women should avoid it. I am afraid that the fatty and greasy food will produce phlegm, promote heat and cause wind, and damage the fetus. 8. Hawthorn Commonly known as Tangzhu and Shanlihong. Because it can promote blood circulation, remove blood stasis, eliminate accumulation and break up qi, it is extremely detrimental to the pregnancy of pregnant women and may even cause miscarriage. Therefore, pregnant women should avoid eating it. 9. Purslane Also known as purslane. It is cold and slippery in nature, so it helps the bowels and promotes miscarriage in the early stages of pregnancy. Modern clinical practice believes that Purslane can cause uterine smooth muscle contraction. Therefore, pregnant women should avoid eating purslane, but this is an exception before delivery. Eating more purslane can actually help with normal delivery. 10. Auricularia Also known as watercress, watercress, and watercress. It is cold and slippery in nature, and has the disadvantage of being slippery and cooling the blood. As the "Nanning City Pharmacopoeia" warns: Pregnant women should not take it. Especially pregnant women in the early stages of pregnancy and those with habitual miscarriage (known as slipped abortion in traditional Chinese medicine) should avoid eating it. |
