Can I eat barbecue occasionally during breastfeeding?

Can I eat kebabs while breastfeeding? I believe this is a question that many mothers of newborns want to know, especially now that winter is here, it is the best time to eat hot pot, and the smell of hot grilled skewers is wafting in from outside. Now I want my mother to help me figure it out, can pregnant women eat skewers during breastfeeding?

Can I eat kebabs during breastfeeding?

During the grilling process, the "Maillard reaction" occurs. The nucleotides in meat react with most carbohydrates in the Maillard reaction to produce mutagenic substances when heated and dissolved. These substances may cause cancer. In addition, in the natural environment of the barbecue, some carcinogens may enter the human body through the skin, respiratory system, digestive system, etc. and cause cancer. Along with the release of aroma, vitamins are destroyed, proteins are denatured, and carbohydrates are also destroyed, which seriously affects the intake of the three. Therefore, eating hot pot will affect the utilization of the above substances.

It is reported that because the meat is directly grilled at high temperature, the melted fat drips onto the charcoal fire. The thermal contraction caused by the coking of food fat combines with the protein in the meat to form a highly carcinogenic substance called benzopyrene, which adheres to the surface of the food. Some people have measured that the benzopyrene content in the burnt debris attached to the iron skewers used for charcoal barbecue reaches 125 mg per kilogram. During peak hours, it not only harms the eaters, but also the passers-by.

Experts suggest that pregnant women who are breastfeeding should not eat hot pot. Grilling itself is not a very healthy way of eating, and it is difficult to grasp the raw and cooked state of the food. If the food is burnt, it contains carcinogens. If it is not cooked well, many foods, especially meat, will contain sparganosis, which can easily cause toxoplasmosis and cause adverse health effects. In addition, most of the seasonings used in grilled skewers are spicy, which are not suitable for pregnant women to consume in large quantities. Therefore, for the health of the baby, mothers are better not to eat or eat less hot pot.
