Can I eat lychees when I am 3 months pregnant?

Women should pay attention to their diet during pregnancy. Some foods have a stimulating effect on the fetus and may even increase the risk of miscarriage. During a woman's pregnancy, the fetal development is not stable in the first three months, so you must pay attention to preserving the fetus during this period. Many people suffer miscarriage due to their own carelessness, which has a huge impact on their psychology and physiology that cannot be relieved. So, can you eat lychees when you are 3 months pregnant?

1. What are the benefits of eating litchi for pregnant women?

1. Lychees are rich in sugar, which can replenish energy and increase nutrition. Studies have shown that lychees have a nourishing effect on brain tissue. Pregnant women eating litchi can significantly improve insomnia, forgetfulness, fatigue and other symptoms;

2. Lychee meat is rich in vitamin C and protein. Eating lychees can help pregnant women enhance their immune function and improve their disease resistance.

3. Lychees are rich in vitamins. Pregnant women eating litchi can promote blood circulation in capillaries, prevent the occurrence of freckles, and make the skin smoother;

4. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, litchi pulp has the effects of nourishing the spleen and liver, regulating qi and replenishing blood, warming the middle and relieving pain, and nourishing the heart and calming the mind.

2. Pregnant women should eat lychees in moderation

Studies have shown that the daily sugar intake of pregnant women should be controlled within 50 grams, so it is appropriate for pregnant women to eat 100-200 grams of lychees each time.

If consumed in large quantities, it can cause hyperglycemia. If the blood sugar concentration is too high, it can lead to sugar metabolism disorders, causing sugar to be excreted from the kidneys and resulting in diabetes. Although high blood sugar can return to normal within 2 hours after eating too much sugar (the normal fasting blood sugar concentration is 80-120 mg/100 ml), repeatedly eating large amounts of lychees can cause the blood sugar concentration to continue to increase, which can cause the fetus to be giant, weighing up to 4000 grams or even more, and is prone to complications such as dystocia, delayed labor, stillbirth, postpartum hemorrhage and infection. Moreover, eating too many lychees can cause excessive internal heat, which can easily cause constipation in pregnant women!
