Is it scientific to say "no fruits and vegetables during the month"? Why?

The birth of a child is one of the most important events in a woman's life, and the month after the birth of a child is also very important to women. It is commonly known as the "moon cycle".

But the young ones believe in scientific methods of sitting on the moon, but both mothers-in-law and mothers, are very convinced that the traditional set.

In fact, the traditional Chinese menstrual sitting has many taboos, such as: can not touch the water, or later will have a headache, body pain; can not get out of bed, can not wind

, or later will be the whole body tendons and bones; can not eat fruits, greens, etc., or later will be a stomach ache, spit acid; can not brush your teeth, or you will be a toothache or even tooth loss; month of soup can not be placed on the salt and so on. These taboos, in the end, which is true, which is doubtful?

01, can not eat fruit?

In fact, this practice is too nervous, completely negate the role of fruit on the postpartum mother. There are vitamins and other nutrients in fruits, and eating them not only gives the mother's appetite, but also adds some nutrients to the body.

It's just that mothers have to be a little more careful when it comes to eating fruits.

Don't eat cold fruits and vegetables (such as watermelon, pears, cucumbers, etc.);

Don't eat the food in the refrigerator, to eat the best fruit room temperature, not to the refrigerator;

It is not suitable to eat fruit before meals, you can eat after eating, so that the way of eating is not only conducive to digestion, but also can be used as a snack.

02Must I drink a lot of soup every day?

Because the water retained in the tissues of the body within 1 to 2 days after delivery quickly returned to the circulation, so that the blood volume increased, in this case, a large number of soup will increase the burden on the heart, the kidneys.

Newborns have a low demand, and drinking a lot of soup has the effect of lactation, if the baby can not eat in time before the milk, may lead to milk stagnation or even mastitis. Therefore, it is advisable to drink a moderate amount of soup within a week after delivery.

03To drink more brown sugar water in the first few days after delivery

Drinking more brown sugar water in the first few days after delivery is good for new mothers. Because, brown sugar is sweet in flavor and warm in nature, it has the effect of warming the menstruation and can activate blood circulation and remove blood stasis. Mothers drink brown sugar water can dissipate cold pain, spleen and stomach warming, is conducive to uterine contraction and recovery, discharging postpartum uterine blood, and promote breast milk secretion.

But if you drink brown sugar water for too long, it's not good for the new mom. Its blood-boosting effect may make the bleeding of bad dew persist, and cause excessive sweating, making the body weaker, drinking brown sugar water is generally controlled in the postpartum 7-10 days is appropriate.

04Multiple nourishment in the month of birth

In order to supplement the nutrition and milk secretion enough, elders will always prepare a variety of nourishing products to the maternal food, but always every day not away from the chicken, meals with fish, but in fact, nourishing the excessive easy to cause maternal obesity, and breast milk in the fat content is too high, will also make the baby development is not uniform, adults and children are not good.

05 moonlighting can not eat salt?

It is right to limit the intake of maternal salt

If a woman eats too much salt during her menstrual period, it will aggravate the burden on the kidneys, which is not conducive to the discharge of retained water in the body, and it will also make the blood pressure higher. At the same time it will allow some metabolic substances into the milk, which in turn will affect the development of the baby's kidneys.

But! Eating less is not a no-no. Women in labor sweat a lot (a breastfeeding is a sweat), the body is very easy to lose salt, moderate supplementation of salt will help postpartum body recovery.

Normal frying and cooking salt will not affect the milk.

The mother is not able to eat well, the mood is irritable, the heart is aggrieved, it really affects the milk production it.

An expert said: the scientific principle of sitting in the moon is not to go to extremes, balanced nutrition, lifestyle to be reasonable. In terms of diet, to ensure healthy, balanced, nutritious, not excessive, in principle, can eat anything.

And China's "Dietary Guidelines for Residents" points out that the diet during the puerperium should adhere to a diversified and balanced diet to meet the principle of nutrition, and there is no special contraindication.

As for "not being able to take a bath and wash your hair", now the conditions are different, air conditioners, water heaters, bath tubs, hair dryers, all households have, water temperature room temperature can be guaranteed. After washing as soon as possible to blow dry the hair, as long as the wind does not catch cold, no problem at all.

So, whether it's diet or postpartum recovery, when new ideas conflict with old taboos insisted on by mothers-in-law and mothers, mothers should believe in science. Just follow the principles of cleanliness and comfort, proper nutrition, proper rest and proper exercise.
