Traditional fallacy:
1. Don't eat cold food, such as bean jelly, watermelon, ice cream, etc., which will cause premature delivery or even miscarriage!
There is no scientific basis for this, but if pregnant women feel uncomfortable and have diarrhea after eating it, it is best to stop eating it, but it has absolutely no effect on the fetus.
2. Eating mutton will make the fetus "hang sheep"?
Epilepsy in sheep has nothing to do with mutton, which is rich in vitamin B 12 and iron, and is absolutely beneficial to pregnant women.
3. Drink more fresh milk, will the baby's skin be very white?
The skin color of the fetus is influenced by parents' genes, which has been decided at the moment of pregnancy, and has nothing to do with the diet during pregnancy.
4. Eating shrimps and crabs will make the fetal skin poor and cause skin sensitivity?
If pregnant women are sensitive to shrimps and crabs themselves, they should avoid eating them during pregnancy, for fear that the probability of pregnant women being sensitive to shrimps and crabs being passed on to the fetus will increase. Pregnant women who are not sensitive will not make the fetal skin worse and produce skin sensitivity even if they eat it.
Dietary taboos with medical basis
1. Don't take too much vitamin A.
If pregnant women take too much vitamin A, it will lead to premature delivery and fetal dysplasia, so they can only take 400- 1250 micrograms of vitamin A every day, of which pig liver is rich in vitamin A, so pregnant women should not overeat.
2. Limit drinking caffeinated drinks.
Excessive caffeine intake will affect the growth of fetal bones, which may lead to deformity of fingers and toes, and increase the incidence of miscarriage, premature delivery and underweight infants. It is best to avoid drinking caffeinated drinks. If you have to, don't drink more than 2 cups of coffee or 3 cups of semi-strong tea a day.
Avoid drinking alcohol
Drinking too much wine will make the fetus deformed and affect the IQ and physiological development of the fetus. Basically, you should avoid drinking. 2 glasses of beer or 1 glass of wine is the limit.
4. Avoid foods high in sugar and fat.
Eating too many foods high in sugar and fat, such as soda, sugar and potato chips, will make pregnant women overweight, thus increasing the incidence of gestational diabetes and pregnancy-induced hypertension. In addition to increasing the risk of diabetes and hypertension in the future, dystocia will also occur.
