Should women replenish blood during menstruation?

Today, I’m going to introduce to you the content of physical health preservation in the Yellow Emperor’s Classic of Internal Medicine. I believe that when it comes to the physical health preservation according to the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine, many people are confused and don't know what it is all about. The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine's physical health preservation, according to its literal meaning, is a way of health preservation. So, what exactly is the physical health preservation in the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine? Next, let's take a look at it through some detailed information.

During menstruation, the body's resistance decreases and emotions are prone to fluctuate. Some people may experience symptoms such as poor appetite, back pain, and fatigue. Due to menstrual blood loss, especially for those with heavy menstruation, the main components of the blood, such as plasma protein, iron, potassium, calcium, and magnesium, will be lost with each menstruation.

Therefore, within 1-5 days after the menstruation is over, protein, minerals and blood-enriching foods should be supplemented. Choose foods that have both beauty-enhancing and blood-replenishing effects, such as milk, eggs, pigeon eggs, quail eggs, beef, mutton, pig's trotters, water chestnuts, spinach, longan meat, carrots, apples, lychee meat, cherries, etc.

When you have symptoms such as poor appetite and back pain, you should choose foods that are nutritious, spleen-strengthening, appetite-stimulating and easily digestible, such as dates, noodles, and coix seed porridge. To maintain nutritional balance, fresh vegetables and fruits should be consumed together. Food should be mainly fresh, which is not only delicious and easy to absorb, but also has less nutritional damage. During menstruation, women generally lose about 30 to 50 milliliters of blood each time. Each milliliter contains 0.5 milligrams of iron, which means that 15 to 50 milligrams of iron are lost during each menstruation. Iron is one of the essential elements for the human body. It not only participates in the synthesis of blood proteins and various important enzymes, but also plays an important role in immunity, intelligence, aging, energy metabolism and other aspects. Therefore, it is very necessary to supplement with iron-rich foods that are easy to digest and absorb during menstruation. Eat more fish and various animal livers, blood, lean meat, egg yolks and other foods

The above is the relevant content about the physical health preservation in the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine, which people are not very familiar with. There are many ways to maintain health, but it depends on people's physical condition to see what kind of tonic is suitable. Because many people's bodies are not suitable for the help of strong supplements.
