Precautions for pregnant women to eat watermelon

1. Pregnant women should eat melon in moderation

Although watermelon has many advantages, not everyone can eat it, let alone eat it without limit. Watermelon is cool in nature, and eating too much can easily cause diseases such as abdominal distension and diarrhea. Moreover, watermelon has a high sugar content. If you eat too much watermelon, you will consume too much sugar. Due to physiological changes in the female endocrine system during pregnancy, the body's insulin is relatively insufficient, and the stabilizing effect on blood sugar decreases, resulting in high sugar concentrations in the blood. Gestational diabetes will occur, and gestational diabetes is an important cause of miscarriage and premature birth. Therefore, pregnant women should not eat too much watermelon.

2. Pregnant women should not eat melons before or after meals.

The large amount of water in watermelon will dilute the gastric juice. Eating it before or after meals will affect the digestion and absorption of food. In addition, eating a large amount of watermelon before meals will occupy the volume of the stomach, which will greatly reduce the intake of various nutrients during the meal.

3. Pregnant women should not eat "cold watermelon"

To avoid gastrointestinal diseases, choose fresh and ripe watermelon when eating it, especially avoid eating watermelon refrigerated in the refrigerator. If the watermelon is too cold, eating it may cause uterine contractions in pregnant women, which may cause premature birth or even endanger the life of the fetus. In addition, watermelons that are cut and refrigerated are prone to breeding bacteria, and pregnant women are prone to gastrointestinal discomfort after eating them.
