What to eat before pregnancy to recuperate the body?

1, Changsha Youxi Clinic advised expectant mothers to increase their intake of protein. Protein is the foundation of human life and the most basic nutrient for brain, muscle and viscera, accounting for 10%-20% of total calories. Couples who intend to get pregnant should appropriately increase their intake of protein. At ordinary times, the daily intake of protein is 1- 1.5g, but now it needs to be increased to 1.5-2.0g, so we should eat more meat, fish, eggs, milk, bean products and other foods.

2. Eat more foods rich in calcium. Calcium is an important component of bones and teeth, and the demand for calcium during pregnancy is twice as high as usual. If you don't take enough calcium before pregnancy, your baby is prone to rickets and calcium-deficient convulsions. Pregnant mothers with excessive calcium loss are prone to osteomalacia and convulsions. Calcium supplementation before pregnancy is good for pregnancy. Calcium is stored in the body for a long time, so don't worry about its loss. Therefore, pregnant mothers should eat more calcium-rich foods such as fish, milk and vegetables.

3. Eat more foods rich in iron. Iron is an important component of hemoglobin. If iron is deficient, it will cause anemia. Fetal babies grow and develop rapidly, absorbing about 5 mg of iron every day, and the blood volume of pregnant mothers is increased by 30% compared with that of non-pregnant mothers, that is, the average blood volume is increased by 1500 ml. If there is iron deficiency, it will easily lead to anemia in the second and third trimester of pregnancy. Iron can be stored in the body for 4 months, and it is very beneficial to start supplementing iron 3 months before pregnancy. Foods rich in iron include milk, pork, eggs, soybeans and seaweed. Cooking in an iron pan can also supplement iron.

4. Supplement vitamins. Vitamins are not only essential elements for normal growth and development of human body, but also essential elements for ensuring normal reproductive function. Experiments on mice show that if vitamins are lacking, it will lead to infertility, stillbirth, deformity and slow growth and development. The same is true when the human body lacks vitamins. Lack of vitamins before pregnancy can easily lead to infertility. Even if pregnant, it is easy to cause fetal defects, such as skeletal hypoplasia, weak resistance, anemia, edema, skin diseases, neuritis and so on. It may also lead to miscarriage, premature delivery and stillbirth of pregnant mothers, or affect uterine contraction, leading to dystocia. Therefore, we should consciously supplement vitamins before pregnancy and eat more meat, milk, eggs, animal liver, vegetables and fruits.

5. Zinc supplement. Zinc is an indispensable part of human metabolism. Zinc deficiency will affect the growth and development of human body, make people short, and affect the reproductive system, and also lead to women not menstruating, men without sperm or less sperm. Eat more foods containing zinc before pregnancy, such as fish, millet, Chinese cabbage, mutton, chicken and oysters.
