As a Chongqing native, I really didn't quit hot pot during pregnancy. For people who like hot pot, it is unnecessary to be insulated from it when they are pregnant. But you really can't be as willful as usual ~

If you want to eat hot pot scientifically, I think three things are very important:

1. Well-done, well-done and well-done.

When it comes to what you must not eat during pregnancy, I'm afraid it's raw food, sashimi, undercooked seafood, steak, etc., or even leftovers from the refrigerator or naked fruits. Why?

avoid listeria infection. Although it is not too common in China, once the infection is serious, it will either be aborted or the baby will suffer from serious infectious diseases such as meningitis and pneumonia after birth, and the mortality rate is also very high.

This is really not a threat. China Health Care Magazine reported that a pregnant woman ate watermelon in the refrigerator for 13 years, resulting in the loss of twins for more than 3 weeks. The reason was finally found to be Listeria infection, and the refrigerator is where Listeria can live.

In hot pot restaurants, there are many ingredients, raw, half-cooked and cooked, which may cross-contaminate, so don't eat raw. Many people really pick up raw cucumbers and lotus root slices and eat them directly. Pregnant women really can't! Especially eating out.

it's best not to use your own chopsticks to iron vegetables, but to prepare a pair of special chopsticks to avoid being infected with bacteria.

2, try to be less spicy.

It's really not suitable to eat too spicy food during pregnancy. People who are pregnant will have a higher body temperature than usual, and are more prone to get angry and constipation. If you eat spicy food, you don't have to stop eating it completely, just enough is enough.

Coconut water and low-sugar yogurt can be combined to reduce the dryness and heat of hot pot and balance it.

3. Eat slowly and eat less.

I feel a little nonsense, but the problem with eating hot pot is that most people eat too much. Why don't pregnant mothers eat too much at a time, because many problems are caused by eating too much. Many so-called taboos during pregnancy actually have nothing to do with eating, and problems only occur when eating too much.

so, we can't emphasize this point too much for hot pot that is easy to eat high.

conclusion: don't eat raw or undercooked food, use multiple pairs of chopsticks, match coconut milk or wean, and don't eat too much.
