In the first few days of confinement, women should eat cocks instead of hens. Because after giving birth, the level of estrogen and progesterone in the body will decrease, which is beneficial to the formation of milk. However, there will be a certain amount of estrogen in the female chicken, which will reduce the efficacy of prolactin after being eaten by women in confinement, which will affect the secretion of milk.
Male chicken contains androgen, which can play an anti-estrogen role. When a woman gives birth to a baby and eats a rooster, it can promote milk secretion. In addition, the fat contained in the pheasant is relatively small, and it is not easy for pregnant women to gain weight after eating it, which is helpful for postpartum body recovery, and it is not easy to cause diarrhea in children.
Women can eat sesame-oil chicken during confinement, which is a very nutritious delicacy. After eating it, the parturient can not only replenish qi, blood and nourish the body, but also have the effect of invigorating the spleen and appetizing, which can make the parturient recover as soon as possible. In postpartum 10 days or so, if Bao Ma's milk secretion is sufficient, she can eat the mother chicken, and she can use the old hen to cook the soup, which is also very effective for nourishing the body.
