【Taboo Foods for Preparing for Pregnancy】
1. Spicy foods
These foods can cause digestive disorders in normal people, such as stomach discomfort, indigestion, constipation, and even hemorrhoids. During the three months before pregnancy, both expectant mothers and fathers should avoid eating spicy foods.
2. High-sugar foods
During the preparation for pregnancy, try to avoid eating high-sugar foods to prevent metabolic disorders and even potential diabetes. If pregnant women continue to eat high-sugar foods during pregnancy, it may lead to gestational diabetes.
3. Caffeine-containing foods
Women must pay attention to avoiding foods containing caffeine during the preparation for pregnancy. Excessive consumption of coffee, tea, and other caffeine-containing beverages and foods will affect women's physical health.
4. Alcoholic beverages
Drinking alcohol is a major cause of infant deformities and mental retardation. Alcohol can easily pass through the placenta into the fetus without any barriers, making the alcohol concentration in the fetus the same as that in the mother's body. Moreover, alcohol has a significant impact on the brain and heart.
5. Pickled foods
Pickled foods contain a large amount of nitrite and benzo(a)pyrene, which are harmful to the body. Especially for pregnant women with allergies, they should avoid consuming such foods to prevent irreversible effects on the fetus.
