Can I eat donkey-hide gelatin cake during menstruation?

Many female friends have this view that when menstruating, there is internal bleeding and they should supplement with some donkey-hide gelatin cakes. In fact, supplementing with donkey-hide gelatin cakes depends on personal physical condition and it is not something you can do casually. Menstruation itself is the process of expelling dirty blood from the body. Many people don’t quite understand this. Let’s take a look at the relevant content about whether you can eat donkey-hide gelatin cakes during menstruation.

During the menstrual period, Yin blood flows down and Yang energy is relatively strong. You cannot eat Yang-related foods at this time. Donkey-hide gelatin is a Yang-related blood-replenishing Chinese medicine. The body is expelling dirty blood. If you choose donkey-hide gelatin to replenish blood at this time, it will add burden to the body. Not only will it fail to expel clean dirty blood, but it will also leave blocked dirty blood in the body. Therefore, it is not suitable to eat donkey-hide gelatin during the menstrual period.

Donkey-hide gelatin has the effects of promoting blood circulation, replenishing blood and stopping bleeding. The menstrual period is when women need to discharge waste blood. If you eat donkey-hide gelatin during the menstrual period, it will cause endocrine disruption in the body, thereby affecting the symptoms of irregular menstruation in women. Therefore, it is not advisable to take foods and Chinese medicines like donkey-hide gelatin that replenish blood and promote blood circulation during the menstrual period. The body is at its weakest, and the health books say that a weak body cannot be nourished.

If you have heavy menstrual flow, you can take donkey-hide gelatin, because it has the effect of replenishing blood and stopping bleeding, but it is best not to take it during menstruation. This is because during menstruation, Yin blood flows down and Yang energy is relatively strong. At this time, you cannot eat things that are hot in Yang energy, such as red dates, donkey-hide gelatin, etc. Therefore, you should harmonize qi and blood in time before menstruation, and avoid eating too hot food. You can take some iron maple bucket, rice cake, yam (to strengthen the spleen and stomach), angelica, lotus root (to supplement iron), and kelp (to resolve phlegm, promote diuresis, and promote bowel movements and detoxification). After menstruation, you need to nourish yin and blood to replenish the previously lost qi and blood. You can eat some donkey-hide gelatin in moderation and cook some nourishing soups, such as black-bone chicken with wolfberry and red dates soup.

The above introduces whether you can eat donkey-hide gelatin during menstruation, and also introduces the main effects of donkey-hide gelatin. Finally, I suggest that if the amount of bleeding is heavy, you can supplement it appropriately. If possible, try not to take donkey-hide gelatin during menstruation. If necessary, it is more urgent to supplement it after the menstruation ends.
