Can I drink sour jujube seed tea during menstruation?

Women have a few days every month when they are in excruciating pain and lose some blood, which makes us look unhealthy. So how can we relieve the pain? Do you know any way to relieve the pain? Can I drink sour jujube seed tea during menstruation?

Because a certain amount of blood is lost after menstruation, it is necessary to increase nutrition appropriately, such as protein, vitamins, iron, calcium, etc. During menstruation, eat more eggs, lean meat, fish, soy products, fresh vegetables and fruits.

During menstruation, you should drink more boiled water and avoid strong tea. Because strong tea contains high caffeine, it can stimulate the nerves and cardiovascular system, and can easily cause dysmenorrhea, prolonged menstruation or excessive bleeding. At the same time, the tannic acid in tea combines with the iron in food in the intestines and precipitates, affecting iron absorption and causing anemia. In addition, you should avoid drinking alcohol, smoking, or eating spicy food during menstruation.

The sour jujube kernel has a faint smell and a light taste. The best jujube seeds are those that are large and full, have purple-red skin and are without a core or shell.

Then the blood will return to the spleen and the five internal organs will be in harmony, and they will sleep peacefully." The use of sour jujube seeds in Guipi Decoction to treat diseases of both the heart and spleen is probably intended to calm the heart and nourish the spleen. The Chinese date kernel contains a lot of fatty oil, protein, two kinds of sterols, etc.
