Can pregnant women eat Sophora japonica? Experts point out that pregnant women can eat Sophora japonica. Sophora japonica is cool and bitter, and has the functions of clearing heat and cooling blood, treating hemorrhoids and preventing constipation. Some pregnant women will have a hot and dry phenomenon during pregnancy, and eating some Sophora japonica can alleviate the discomfort symptoms.

However, experts also pointed out that pregnant women can eat Sophora japonica, but they can't eat too much at once, because Sophora japonica is a cold food, and pregnant women who are weak and cold may eat too much, which may lead to abdominal pain and physical discomfort. In addition, Sophora japonica is high in sugar, and pregnant women are prone to gestational diabetes if they eat too much, so they must eat it in moderation.
