Olive oil is a kind of vegetable oil, which contains a variety of unsaturated fatty acids, which is beneficial to our human body and helps to reduce blood fat. Pregnant women can eat olive oil during pregnancy, but it should be noted that most olive oil is generally not recommended to cook at high temperature for a long time to avoid losing nutrients in olive oil. Therefore, olive oil should not be used in the process of stewing and frying at high temperature for a long time. If it is only used at low temperature for a short time, olive oil is a good choice, which is helpful to the health of pregnant women and the development of the fetus. So pregnant women can eat olive oil.

Precautions in the third trimester

In the third trimester, the expectant mother enters the final sprint stage, so it is particularly important to store nutrition for her mother. A safe, healthy and reasonable diet is a necessary prerequisite for a healthy birth of a fetus. Combined with the nutritional characteristics of the third trimester, we should make corresponding adjustments on the basis of the second trimester diet.

1. Diversified dietary requirements: In the second trimester, expectant mothers not only need to supplement calories, but also pay attention to the supplementation of high-quality nutrients such as protein, clams, calcium and vitamins. They can adopt a diet of eating less and eating more meals, which can be increased to more than 5 meals a day. Never take a lot of supplements to avoid obesity and macrosomia (expectant mothers should not gain more than 15 kilograms during pregnancy).

2. Supplement sufficient calcium and iron to help the teeth and bones of the fetus calcify well and prevent the anemia of expectant mothers. You can eat more kelp, laver, dried shrimp, sesame, animal liver, eggs and fish.

3. Increase the intake of plant protein, such as beans and bean products.

4. Reduce the intake of foods with high sugar content, such as fruits, sugar, honey, etc., so as to avoid the fetus growing too big and affecting the smooth delivery.

5. Eat more foods with high nutritional value and small size, such as animal food; Eat less foods with low nutritional value and large volume, such as potatoes and sweet potatoes.
