Pickles are generally preserved, and the taste of pickles is relatively heavy, so many women like to eat pickles during pregnancy. Can pregnant women eat pickles is also a concern of many people. Under normal circumstances, pregnant women can eat pickles in small quantities, but not too much, which will affect the fetus.

1. Although pickles have a good appetizing effect, their salt content is very high. If expectant mothers consume too much salt, it will easily increase the burden on the stomach and kidneys, raise blood pressure and induce pregnancy-induced hypertension. Moreover, pickles may contain nitrite, which affects the health of pregnant women and fetuses. Therefore, pregnant women had better eat less or not eat pickles.

2. After pickled by salt and other condiments, the nutritional value of pickles is greatly reduced, and the taste is salty, which violates the dietary principle of light nutrition after delivery and is not suitable for new mothers. Excessive salt intake by new mothers will not only aggravate edema, but also affect the quality of milk, which is not conducive to maternal physical recovery and baby development. In addition, improper pickling method of pickles is easy to produce nitrite, and excessive consumption is easy to be poisoned. Therefore, it is not recommended for pregnant women to eat pickles.

3. Because pickles themselves are foods with too high salt content, and if they are not salted well, a lot of nitrite will appear, so when eating, you must pay attention to it. If white salt frost appears, it is not recommended to eat again. Don't eat too much at one time, otherwise it may cause nitrite poisoning. And when eating, we should also pay attention to the fact that if there is an odor, or if there is a bad taste, it is forbidden to eat again.
