Best snacks for early pregnancy

Many pregnant women will buy some nutritious dried fruits as snacks for themselves after they become pregnant. In addition to being good for the baby, deliciousness also accounts for part of the reason. Is this really possible at will? Next, we need to pay attention to this kind of dried fruit.

1. Bleach Dried Fruit

The dried fruits with very clean colors that we see on the market are not as clean as they seem. In order to make their dried fruits look more beautiful and sell better, some manufacturers will choose to whiten the surface of some dried fruits and remove the spots and black spots on the dried fruits. However, such treatment methods often leave some unwashed compounds in the dried fruits, especially cracked fruits such as pumpkin seeds are more likely to have residues, which are harmful to the human body. Therefore, pregnant women should not eat them as it will affect the development of their children.

2. Moldy dried fruits

Some dried fruits we buy now have a variety of tastes to suit our taste. These dried fruits are added with spices and other substances. Long-term consumption will have adverse effects on health, especially those strong-tasting dried fruits may be moldy. In order to obtain profits, the store has to carry out secondary processing. When pregnant women eat these dried fruits with relatively high nutritional value, they should try to choose the original flavor, which is also good for the healthy growth of the baby.

The following foods can be eaten:

Peanut kernels

The nutritional value of peanuts is comparable to that of eggs, milk, and lean pork. The protein content is about 30%, and it is easily digested and absorbed by the body. Some people like to peel off the peanut skin when eating peanuts. In fact, this is wrong. The red skin outside the peanut kernel has the effect of replenishing blood and qi. It is best for expectant mothers to eat peanuts with the red skin on.

Sweet Almond

Sweet almonds have the effects of reducing qi, relieving cough and phlegm, relieving asthma and promoting digestion. It is very effective in preventing constipation during pregnancy, but it is not suitable to take too much at one time.
