"Many women believe that they should eat something warm during menstruation, such as red dates and donkey-hide gelatin to replenish blood. In fact, this is a very general and wrong view."

Before menstruation, you should harmonize qi and blood in time, and avoid eating too hot food. You can take some iron maple vine, rice ribs, yam (to strengthen the spleen and stomach), angelica, lotus root (to supplement iron), and kelp (to eliminate phlegm, promote diuresis, and promote bowel movements and detoxification). During menstruation, Yin blood flows out and Yang energy is strong. At this time, you should not eat things that are hot in Yang energy, such as red dates, donkey-hide gelatin, etc. After menstruation, you need to nourish yin and blood to replenish the qi and blood lost before. You can make some nourishing soups, such as black-bone chicken with wolfberry and red dates soup, etc. You can also eat pork ribs, yam, and lotus root. Of course, it is best to take Chinese medicine that nourishes yin, qi and blood. At the same time, you can also eat more "black" foods during this period, such as black fungus, black beans, black fish, and loach.
