Pregnant women's lunch taboos
1, fritters: Since alum is an inorganic substance containing aluminum in the production of fritters, about15g of alum is used for every 500g of flour fritters. If a pregnant woman eats two fried dough sticks a day, it is equivalent to eating three grams of alum. The accumulated aluminum will invade the fetal brain through the placenta, affecting intelligence.
2. Saccharin: Saccharin is extracted from coal tar, and its main component is sodium saccharin, which has no nutritional value. Pregnant women should not use saccharin excessively for a long time, or drink a lot of drinks containing saccharin. Saccharin has a strong stimulating effect on gastrointestinal mucosa and affects the functions of some digestive enzymes. It will cause digestive dysfunction and indigestion, leading to nutrient absorption dysfunction. But also increase the burden of renal function.
3. Spicy condiments: It is best for pregnant women to use less or no seasonings such as star anise, fennel, pepper, Chili powder, cinnamon, pepper and spiced powder during pregnancy. These substances can cause intestinal boredom, constipation or fecal obstruction in pregnant women.

Eight hearty lunches.
Although lunch accounts for about 40% of normal people's daily food intake, it is not appropriate to overeat, just eat 8 points full. After all, after lunch, the blood in the body will be concentrated in the stomach to help digestion and absorption, during which the brain is in a state of ischemia and hypoxia. Eating too much will prolong the time when the brain is in a state of ischemia and hypoxia, and then affect the work efficiency in the afternoon.
The time to eat fruit is particular.
"Fruit before meals" should be eaten half an hour before meals, and "consequences after meals" should be eaten two hours after meals. Eating fruit before meals can reduce hunger and control the total meat intake. Many people are used to eating fruit immediately after meals, which actually increases the burden on the stomach and is harmful to the health. 2 hours after lunch break, you can prepare some yogurt and fruit for meals, which can supplement blood sugar and refresh yourself.
