No seasonings can be added to confinement meals! ! This statement is not credible. In fact, when cooking confinement meals, you can add some seasonings in appropriate amounts, such as salt, sugar, soy sauce, onions, ginger, garlic, perilla, sesame paste, cooking wine, etc. You can use a little less than usual, so as not to reduce the amount of food. The quality of postpartum meal will not cause harm to the mother's body, let alone the quality of breast milk.

However, try not to add seasonings such as Sichuan peppercorns, chili peppers, peppers, cinnamon, bay leaves, leeks, fennel, white wine, star anise, vinegar, etc., and do not affect the taste for the sake of temporary appetite. Milk secretion, and this type of seasoning is highly irritating and will also have an impact on the baby's health.

So do the above have any scientific basis? Some mothers said that they advocated American-style breastfeeding, so they didn’t pay much attention to dietary taboos. A colleague who was pregnant and gave birth at the same time as me told me that Americans don’t pay so much attention to giving birth, and even coffee is not required during lactation. You can drink it with ice water, so you don’t have to be particular about the seasoning.

But in fact, although they are all human beings, their living environments are different and their physical constitutions are also very different. Even in China, which is a vast country with abundant resources, the environment, climate, and eating habits of northerners and southerners are different. The "shapes" of Chinese people are very similar, not to mention that the racial differences between white people, yellow people, and black people will gradually lead to many physiological differences. Therefore, we don’t need to compare European and American breastfeeding methods. There is no comparability.
