No matter at which stage of life, it is not easy to say that all foods can be consumed more. Because it is better to be preventive, even if some foods will not cause much harm to the human body, they will still cause some risks once consumed. So, what should you not eat during your menstrual period? What shouldn’t girls eat during menstruation? What can't you eat during your period? 1. You cannot eat spicy food during menstruation. Women during menstruation feel very tired, their digestion function weakens, and their appetite is poor. Therefore, the diet should pay attention to the light taste and easy digestion of food, and avoid taking acidic and irritating foods, such as vegetables, kimchi, vinegar, chili peppers, mustard, pepper, etc. 2. You cannot drink carbonated drinks during menstruation. Many women who like to drink carbonated beverages will experience fatigue and listlessness during their menstrual period, which is a manifestation of iron deficiency. Because most of the drinks such as carbonated drinks contain polyphosphate, they produce chemical changes with the body's iron, making the iron unable to be digested and absorbed. In addition, drinking too much carbonated beverages will neutralize gastric acid with sodium bicarbonate in carbonated beverages, reduce the digestive capacity and antibacterial effect of gastric juice, and affect appetite. 3. Don’t eat too much sweets during menstruation. In the past, many people believed that eating sweets could improve the discomfort during menstruation, so brown sugar, cookies or chocolate have basically become the "common medicine" for women during menstruation. It is now believed that eating high-glycogen desserts will rapidly increase blood sugar levels, which does have the effect of adjusting mood, but once blood sugar levels drop, it will lead to a greater gap, and the mood is easily unstable. According to a US magazine report, eating sweets during menstruation will not only fail to improve menstrual discomfort symptoms, but may affect the balance of testosterone in the body due to unstable blood sugar levels, aggravating the uncomfortable feeling. |
