Can I take deep sea fish oil during menstruation?

Diet during menstruation is worthy of our attention, because menstruation is a sensitive period for female friends. There are many dietary taboos during menstruation. For example, we believe that deep-sea fish oil, which is very beneficial to the human body, is suitable for female friends during menstruation? To know the answer to this question, we need to analyze the nutritional content, efficacy and function of deep-sea fish oil.

Deep-sea fish oil has very rich nutritional value and edible value. Eating deep-sea fish oil regularly can help our body fight inflammation and protect our heart and blood vessels. Deep-sea fish oil can also play a role in brain health and intelligence.

Deep sea fish oil is rich in diversified unsaturated fatty acids - DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid). DHA and EPA can help lower cholesterol and triglyceride levels, prevent cardiovascular diseases, prevent blood coagulation, and prevent cerebral hemorrhage, cerebral thrombosis and Alzheimer's disease. It reduces arteriosclerosis and high blood pressure, lowers blood viscosity, promotes blood circulation and eliminates fatigue. It is also a natural health product for relieving gout and rheumatoid arthritis.

The role of deep sea fish oil:

1. Lowering blood lipids, 2. Lowering blood pressure, 3. Anti-thrombosis, 4. Anti-tumor, 5. Enhance disease resistance, 6. Nourishing the brain and promoting intelligence, 7. Anti-aging.

What role does deep-sea fish oil play in improving blood fat status?

High blood lipids are the root cause of hypertension, arteriosclerosis and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Therefore, correcting high blood lipids is the key to treating and preventing hypertension and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

The Satellite Science Center at the University of Oregon in the United States used salmon containing EPA and DHA as the main food and provided it to subjects for ten consecutive days. The results showed that healthy people's blood cholesterol decreased by 17%, and triglycerides decreased by 40%, while people with hyperlipidemia had their cholesterol decreased by 20%, and triglycerides decreased by as much as 67%. This shows that EPA has a significant effect on lowering blood lipids, and the effect of lowering triglycerides is much stronger than that of lowering cholesterol.

Therefore, women should try to eat less deep-sea fish oil during menstruation. Eating it in moderation will not affect menstruation.

Many women experience some uncomfortable symptoms in the few days before their period (premenstrual period), such as depression, anxiety, tension, insomnia, irritability, restlessness, fatigue, etc. It is generally believed that this is related to the imbalance of estrogen and progesterone in the body.

At this time, women should choose foods and medicines that are good for the skin and beauty, and can also replenish qi, soothe the liver, and regulate negative emotions, such as cabbage, grapefruit, lean pork, celery, japonica rice, duck eggs, fried atractylodes, yam, coix seed, lily, golden loofah, winter melon, kelp, sea cucumber, carrot, white radish, walnut kernels, black fungus, mushrooms, etc.

We introduced above that women during menstruation are more sensitive, especially in diet, so we must do a good job of dietary care for female friends during menstruation. Be more careful before eating to see what is suitable and what is not suitable to eat. Deep-sea fish oil has many benefits for female friends, and it will not cause harm as long as you don’t consume too much during menstruation.
