Patient's question:
My wife is about to give birth. I heard that women should eat sweet wine eggs while doing postpartum recovery. Could you please tell me the benefits of eating sweet wine eggs during this period?Doctor's answer:
After eating, it helps to expel intrauterine blood stagnation, nourish the face, replenish blood, and enhance beauty. It also calms the mind and reduces swelling. It is beneficial for postpartum women with blood deficiency and insufficient milk production, as well as those with incomplete lochia. It is recommended not to add too much water when boiling, as it will dilute the wine flavor and reduce its effectiveness. After boiling the sweet wine, crack an egg into it and cook until the egg is done. Eat it while it's hot. It's enough to eat 1 to 2 times a month, once before and after menstruation. Eating too much may cause internal heat, leading to acne. It is suitable for postpartum women with blood deficiency and insufficient milk production, as well as those with incomplete lochia.
