What should not be eaten in the early stages of pregnancy

Patient's question:

27-year-old female, I and my husband started trying to conceive from the beginning of our marriage, and now I'm pregnant. I'm just very worried. Please ask what I shouldn't eat in the early stages of pregnancy.

Doctor's answer:

Canned foods: During the manufacturing process of canned foods, various additives are involved, such as synthetic colors, flavorings, preservatives, etc. Although these additives have little impact on the health of adults, excessive consumption by pregnant women can be detrimental to health. Additionally, the nutritional value of canned foods is not high, and after being heated, the vitamins and other nutrients in the food are destroyed to a certain extent.
Spinach: People have long believed that spinach is rich in iron and has the function of replenishing qi, making it an excellent vegetable for preventing anemia during pregnancy. In fact, spinach contains very little iron, but rather a large amount of oxalic acid.
