Five dietary taboos

Taboo 1: Eating salty food: Women should remember not to eat salty food before menstruation. Because salty food will increase the body's salt and water storage, before menstruation, the progesterone level will increase, which can easily lead to edema, headaches and other phenomena. If you start eating a low-salt food 10 days before your period, the above symptoms will not occur.

Taboo 2: Drinking carbonated beverages: Many women who like to drink carbonated beverages will experience fatigue and lack of energy during menstruation, which is a sign of iron deficiency. Because soda and other beverages mostly contain phosphates, they react chemically with iron in the body, making it difficult to absorb the iron. In addition, drinking too much soda will neutralize the bicarbonate in the soda with gastric juice, reducing the digestive ability and bactericidal effect of gastric acid and affecting appetite.

Taboo 3: Eating spicy food: Do not eat spicy food and chili peppers before menstruation, and eat less fatty meat, animal oil and sweets.

Taboo 4: Eating spicy and cold foods: Spicy and cold foods are irritating and can easily cause pelvic blood vessel constriction, resulting in too little menstrual blood flow or even sudden cessation of menstrual blood flow. In addition, irritating substances such as tobacco and alcohol will also have a certain impact on menstruation. If you do not pay attention to avoid these adverse stimuli, dysmenorrhea or menstrual disorders will occur in the long run.

Taboo 5: Eating fried and greasy food.
