Can I eat cakes during my period?

Menstruation refers to the shedding of the endometrium, and the discharge of shed endometrial tissue and blood from the vagina. It is a process that all women experience. Women will experience physical discomfort and mental irritability during the menstrual period, so generally women will be more strict with their lifestyle habits during this period. Women must pay attention, especially when it comes to diet.

Qiegao is a common snack that is very popular among people. It tastes delicious and unique. Many people like to eat it. But can women during menstruation use Qiegao as a nutritional supplement? Will it cause harm to the body? Let's find out below.

Qiegao is the common name for maren candy, a national specialty food made by the Uyghur people in southern Xinjiang using traditional craftsmanship, using ingredients such as walnut kernels, corn syrup, raisins, grape juice, sesame seeds, roses, Badan apricots, and dates. Because small pieces of marzipan are usually cut from a large piece with a knife when sold, it is also called "cut cake".

As for the walnut cake series products, 80% of them are selected walnut kernels, and other pure natural corn, grapes, eggs, and other raw materials, which make the walnuts have extremely high medicinal value. The dried kernels contain protein, fatty oil, crude fiber, calcium, iron, carotene, vitamin C, etc.; eating 0.25 kg of walnut kernels is equivalent to drinking 4.5 kg of milk or eating 2.5 kg of eggs. Regular consumption of this food can make people refreshed and energetic.

Due to the special climate and agriculture in Xinjiang, various dried fruits and nuts, such as walnuts, peanuts, and raisins, have been produced in abundance since ancient times. Incorporating these things into the production process of chegao can be regarded as an innovation. It can not only enrich the taste of the monotonous staple food and develop a snack with Xinjiang characteristics, but also the rich protein, fat, minerals and vitamins contained in dried fruits and nuts can meet various nutritional needs, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

Qiegao contains a lot of nutrients, but it can also cause certain harm to the body. No matter who you are, don't eat too much, otherwise it will cause a burden on the body. Women who are menstruating should be careful not to touch cold things, don't be too tired, and pay attention to rest.
