Women's health food

After giving birth, many mothers’ skin becomes increasingly rough, their complexion becomes worse, they often suffer from insomnia and nightmares at night, and their temper becomes worse. Many mothers want to know what methods are there to take care of their bodies? Since it is about nourishing the body, I would like to recommend several Chinese medicinal foods for women's health care, which are quite effective. I hope this will be helpful for women’s health.

Pueraria root

Pueraria root is one of my country's traditional Chinese medicinal materials. It is rich in flavonoids, which can regulate estrogen levels and significantly improve syndromes such as osteoporosis, menopause or menopause that is entering menopause, amenorrhea, hot flashes, heart fire and irritability, poor sleep quality, and constipation.

Chuanxiong:

Chuanxiong has the effects of promoting blood circulation and qi, dispelling wind and relieving pain, relieving depression and dampness. It is an important Chinese medicine in the famous postpartum prescription "Shenghua Tang". It is highly praised in the Tang Dynasty's "Bencao Gangmu": "It can cure all kinds of wind, all kinds of qi, all kinds of strain, all kinds of blood, replenish the five kinds of fatigue, promote qi and relieve depression, activate blood circulation and relieve pain, and is very effective for amenorrhea, dystocia, postpartum blood stasis and pain."

safflower

Saffron has the effects of dredging meridians and activating collaterals, promoting menstruation and removing blood stasis, dispersing blood stasis and unblocking knots, reducing swelling and relieving pain, cooling blood and detoxifying. It is known as the "protector of women" and has a good effect on menopausal syndrome, irregular menstruation, insomnia, irritability, etc.

Angelica:

Since the Southern and Northern Dynasties in my country, angelica has been regarded as a precious blood tonic and blood circulation product. It can nourish blood and regulate menstruation, promote blood circulation and relieve pain, moisturize the skin, regenerate muscles and strengthen the body, and prolong life. It plays an extremely important role in protecting women's health. Studies have also found that angelica can promote estrogen secretion, reduce vascular resistance, increase circulating blood volume, and nourish the skin.

Red Dates, Longan and Egg Soup

Ingredients: 200g eggs, 50g longan meat, 30g jujube (dried), 30g angelica, 50g brown sugar

Method: Boil the eggs, peel them, take a clay pot, put in longan meat, red dates, angelica, add water, and cook over low heat for 20 minutes; add the cooked eggs and brown sugar and cook for 15 minutes.

Mother grass:

Motherwort can remove blood stasis, promote new blood, regulate menstruation, and promote diuresis and reduce swelling. It is mainly used to treat irregular menstruation, dysmenorrhea, amenorrhea, fetal leakage and dystocia, retained placenta, postpartum blood loss, abdominal pain due to blood stasis, traumatic injuries, edema due to kidney disease, difficulty urinating, hematuria, carbuncles and ulcers. "Bencao Mengquan" believes that it has the effects of "removing dead fetus, stagnating fetus, promoting blood circulation, and producing new blood". Because motherwort is slightly cold in nature, it is especially suitable for postpartum women with large amounts of blood, red blood, and fear of heat.

Health care is a big deal, and staying healthy requires long-term persistence. Stick to a regular diet and exercise to achieve results. Eat three meals a day, eat until you are 70% full, eat more fruits and vegetables, and drink plenty of water. Exercise more often, avoid spicy and greasy foods, try not to smoke or drink, and eat fruit one hour after meals to aid digestion, especially apples.
