We all know that menstrual blood is excreted through the uterus. Excreting menstrual blood is also excreting waste blood in the uterus, which can prevent blood stasis from getting stuck in the uterus, and eventually leading to blood stasis accumulation and causing some diseases. These menstrual blood cannot be eaten and can only be excreted, and may also carry some bacteria and infections. During this period, you also need to eat some food to promote the excretion of menstrual blood and make the uterus cleaner. What can women eat to help discharge menstrual blood? 1. Spinach Spinach contains a large amount of iron and vitamin E. Both iron and vitamin E can replenish the blood lost during women's menstruation, relieve women's dysmenorrhea, and make women's menstrual blood flow more smoothly and faster. 2. Soybean foods Soy foods contain a large amount of phytoestrogens, which can promote the production of estrogen in women's bodies. If the estrogen secretion in women's bodies is relatively high, it will make menstrual blood flow more smoothly and accelerate the discharge of menstrual blood. 3. Pumpkin Pumpkin contains a large amount of zinc, which is a substance that can accelerate blood flow and help reduce the fat content in the blood. After the fat content in the blood is reduced, the blood will flow more easily, which is more conducive to the rapid discharge of menstrual blood from the body. 4. Brown sugar Brown sugar is a common food in life. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that brown sugar is warm in nature, sweet in taste, and enters the spleen meridian. Granulated sugar has the effects of harmonizing the spleen and liver, replenishing blood, activating blood circulation, clearing blood stasis, and excreting lochia. Drinking brown sugar water during menstruation can help eliminate toxins and blood stasis, warm the body, increase energy, activate qi and blood, speed up blood circulation, and make menstruation smoother. 5. Cauliflower and carrots Women may experience some negative emotions before and after menstruation due to changes in estrogen secretion. Cauliflower and carrots contain a lot of vitamin B6. Vitamin B6 can not only stabilize women's emotions, but also soften blood vessels, so that menstrual blood can be discharged from the body more smoothly, and menstruation can naturally be discharged from the body faster.
