Amaranth can be said to be a semi-wild vegetable, because amaranth is drought-resistant, moisture-resistant, heat-resistant and easy to grow. Usually, we eat more leaves. Cooked soup and leaves will appear purple, because they contain a lot of natural pigments, which will turn purple after cooking. Amaranth has the functions of invigorating qi, clearing heat, improving eyesight, relaxing bowels and diuresis, but it also has the function of protecting the fetus, so it is best for pregnant women not to eat or eat less. Pregnant women in the early stages of pregnancy had better not eat it. If they want to eat, they should eat more after the fetus is stable.
In addition, amaranth is cool. If pregnant women are weak, it is better to eat less, because it may stimulate the uterus and cause miscarriage. Regarding whether pregnant women eat amaranth, I know there is, because eating too much amaranth will promote blood coagulation and strengthen the hematopoietic function of pregnant women, which is very unfavorable to the fetus and the possibility of abortion is very high. So pregnant women should try not to eat if they can.
