Most women will have trouble with menstruation for a few days every month. In fact, this is understandable because normal women will have their menstruation on time every month. During menstruation, women's bodies are often more fragile and many foods are not allowed to be eaten. So, let’s talk about whether women during menstruation can drink Pu’er tea.

Among all kinds of tea, Pu'er is the elder. It is warm and mellow, and becomes more fragrant as it ages.

Modern medicine has conducted nearly 20 studies on the effects of tea: warming the stomach, losing weight, lowering blood lipids, preventing arteriosclerosis, preventing coronary heart disease, lowering blood pressure, anti-aging, anti-cancer, lowering blood sugar, inhibiting bacteria and inflammation, reducing tobacco toxicity, reducing heavy metal toxicity, anti-radiation, preventing tooth decay, improving eyesight, aiding digestion, resisting toxins, preventing constipation, and sobering up.

The people who are not suitable for drinking it are mainly pregnant women, women during menstruation, people who have the habit of smoking and drinking, people who are prone to getting angry, hot and those who are fat (i.e. those with dry and hot constitution).

Precautions during menstruation

1. Try not to wash your hair during your menstrual period: be sure to blow dry your hair immediately after washing it. During menstruation, you can wash your hair at noon.

2. Pay attention to keeping warm during menstruation: that is, use less air conditioning. Even if the air conditioner is on, you should still wear more clothes in the air-conditioned room.

3. Avoid drinking cold drinks: This is very basic common sense. Never violate it and don’t joke about your own beauty. Drinking ice water will prevent the dirty blood from being discharged smoothly, and it will definitely be harmful to the body if it stays in the body.

4. Eat some sweets: Eat chocolate and cake during menstruation, because eating some sweets during menstruation can help metabolize dirty blood.

5. Avoid fatigue: Adequate rest is important. Excessive fatigue can lead to prolonged menstruation or excessive blood loss.

6. Don’t be too emotional: It is said that girls will naturally be in a bad mood during their menstrual period, but don’t indulge yourself in losing your temper, because losing your temper will disrupt your menstrual period and hurt your liver.

Although from the above introduction we can see that Pu'er tea has many benefits. However, women who are menstruating are generally not allowed to drink Pu'er tea. In addition, there are many aspects that women need to pay attention to during menstruation, such as not eating raw or cold food; not being too tired; eating less sweets; keeping warm, etc. These are very necessary for the good health of women during menstruation.
