Cowpea is a common legume food. It is rich in nutrients, has a variety of cooking methods, and has a unique taste. It is also favored by many young people. In recent years, many people have used cowpea to make delicious snacks. So, can you eat cowpea snacks during pregnancy? 1. Pregnant women have very low immunity during pregnancy. In the process of making cowpea snacks, it is inevitable to add spices, oils or salt as seasoning, especially various food preservatives, which will also be added in large quantities, and many foods will be fried, which are not edible for pregnant women. 2. If it is fresh cowpea, pregnant women can eat it, because this kind of food contains a certain amount of protein, carotene and folic acid, which can have many benefits to the growth of pregnant women and children. At the same time, cowpea is not irritating or harmful. Eating it properly can prevent the baby from being deformed. It has a strong anti-edema effect and can help the body excrete unnecessary toxins. However, it is not suitable for people with favism or allergy history. 3. In the early stages of pregnancy, women can take folic acid tablets to prevent fetal deformities. At the same time, they should also eat more meat, eggs, milk, and eat a variety of vegetables and fruits in combination. Be sure to clean them before cooking. The method should be simple, and high-temperature frying should not be used. Use the soup method. At the same time, pay attention to the food. Once it is moldy or contaminated, it must be discarded in time to avoid burdening the kidneys. 4. The phosphorus in cowpea promotes the thickening of bones and incisors, prevents rickets and rickets in children, and maintains the body's acid-base balance and oxidative phosphorylation. 5. The vitamins in cowpea maintain normal vision function, prevent conjunctivitis, enhance immunity, and promote the normal development of babies. At the same time, it can prevent pregnant women's skin from becoming rough and help them restore their body shape. 6. The magnesium in cowpea strengthens bones and teeth, and promotes the normal brain development of babies. Pregnant women with high blood pressure who take magnesium can relieve stressed muscles and prevent premature birth. 7. The calcium in cowpea can supplement calcium for pregnant women, prevent diseases caused by calcium deficiency, enhance immunity, prevent fetal calcium deficiency, and promote normal bone growth of the fetus. |
