Can pregnant women really not eat spicy hot pot? What is the truth?

As a Sichuanese, Nana feels that eating hot pot is as normal as eating rice, and only eats red soup pot. Usually, when she has something to do, she will invite her friends to have dinner together. Later, Nana married to the north. After she became pregnant, her mother-in-law forbade her to eat hot pot, even Chili, saying that it was bad for the fetus, so that Nana had no appetite for anything all day and could only secretly eat two peppers when her mother-in-law was away. China has always had many taboos about pregnancy, some of which have even been circulated for hundreds of years. For the sake of the fetus in the belly, pregnant mothers can tolerate it, but some foods are eaten by mistake. Pregnant women are not forbidden to eat, just need to pay attention to the method and quantity of eating. I summarize four widely circulated "taboo foods for pregnant women" to see if I can eat them.

soybean

I don't know if pregnant mothers have ever heard of the saying that babies who eat soy sauce during pregnancy will have very dark skin after birth. Soy sauce is an essential condiment in life, which not only stimulates people's appetite, but also has the effect of clearing away heat and toxic materials. It is inevitable, and there is no scientific basis for saying that eating soy sauce will make your baby black. Pregnant mothers can completely ignore it, but when choosing soy sauce, pregnant mothers had better choose primary color soy sauce to avoid health problems.

mutton

I don't know where I heard it from. Some people said never to eat mutton during pregnancy, or the baby will get epilepsy in the future. In fact, "epilepsy" and mutton just happen to have a strong word, and they have nothing to do with each other, so pregnant mothers naturally don't have to care about the rumors that they can't eat mutton during pregnancy. In the cold winter, mutton can drive away the cold, nourish and strengthen the body. It is the first-class food in winter and is very good for pregnant mothers with weak constitution.

chafing dish

There is a saying that pregnant women can't eat hot pot, mainly because eating hot pot will come into contact with raw meat, especially those strange internal organs, which are likely to contain Toxoplasma gondii. If you accidentally eat Toxoplasma gondii, it may cause fetal malformation. But this does not affect pregnant women to eat hot pot, but pregnant mothers should pay attention to the hygiene of choosing materials, don't eat strange things, and wait until the ingredients are completely cooked. In addition, don't eat too much pepper during pregnancy to avoid getting angry.

Liangguo

When it comes to cool fruit, many people will unconsciously shudder, thinking that it will definitely be bad for the fetus. Actually, it is not. Eating too many hot fruits corresponding to cold fruits may not be good. So pregnant women can't eat fruit? You can eat some cold fruits such as watermelon during pregnancy, but be careful not to eat ice, and pay attention to the amount, otherwise you will consume too much sugar.
