1. Can you drink rice wine during confinement? What are the benefits of drinking rice wine for women?

1. Promote blood circulation and dispel cold

Chinese medicine in my country points out that rice wine has the effects of promoting blood circulation, dispelling cold, and activating meridians. Therefore, patients who often feel cold hands and feet can drink more in moderation. Especially in cold seasons, drinking a moderate amount of rice wine can not only promote blood circulation, dispel cold, and activate meridians, but also help this group of people effectively resist the stimulation of cold, thereby preventing colds.

But you should be especially careful when drinking rice wine. Although the alcohol content in rice wine is very low, you can still get drunk if you drink too much. Therefore, you must pay attention to moderation when drinking, generally 100~200 grams per meal is appropriate.

2. Anti-aging and heart protection

Unlike other alcoholic beverages, among the "four major families" consisting of beer, wine, rice wine and white wine, rice wine has the highest nutritional value. Research has found that if women drink rice wine in moderation on a regular basis, it can have a beauty-enhancing effect, and if they can persist in drinking it for a long time, it can also have anti-aging effects.

3. Weight loss

You may not know that the extremely common rice wine also has the effect of reducing weight. Many people mistakenly believe that rice wine is very high in calories, so drinking too much will definitely make you fat.

But as long as you pay attention when drinking it, drinking in moderation can prevent obesity. It can also accelerate blood circulation and metabolism, thereby achieving the effect of weight loss. Rice wine also contains a large amount of sugar, as well as organic acids, oxygen acids and various vitamins, all of which are nutrients necessary for our human body.

4. Promote uterine contraction

In our country, yellow wine is also called rice wine. It is the essence of water and grain, so it is hot in nature. For some women who have just given birth, drinking a small amount of this wine can dispel wind, promote blood circulation, and ward off evil spirits and filth.

At the same time, it is beneficial to the discharge of lochia and promotes uterine contraction, especially for postpartum wind-induced diseases such as relaxing the meridians and activating the collaterals. Add longan or lychee, red dates, walnuts and ginseng to rice wine and cook together. It is not only delicious but also has a good effect of replenishing qi and blood.

2. Can I drink rice wine during confinement?

You can drink rice wine during confinement.

But don’t drink it directly. During the confinement period, you can boil rice wine before drinking it, or use it with boiled eggs and other foods.

Whether it is white wine, rice wine, grape wine or beer, they all contain a certain amount of alcohol. When pregnant women consume alcohol, it will enter the fetus through the placenta, making the concentration in the fetal blood equal to the alcohol content in the mother's tissue, damaging the fetal brain cells, causing abnormal brain structure, resulting in developmental disorders of the fetal central nervous system and mental retardation. This is called "fetal alcohol syndrome" and can cause malformations of certain fetal organs, such as microcephaly, micromandibular, multiple visceral malformations, and heart and limb malformations.
