Patient's question:
I am 36 weeks pregnant. Three or four days ago, when I visited a friend's house, they asked me if I had gone for a postpartum detox. I was a bit confused. My friend said that it's necessary to detox after giving birth, otherwise it might affect the baby. But is it too late now? What should a woman eat during the 36th week of pregnancy to detox?Doctor's answer:
It is difficult to clear fetal toxins during pregnancy. You can regulate your diet to expel toxins from your body. Avoid spicy and irritating foods. Rest more when it's your time, adjust your mood, don't drink cold water or drinks, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, supplement vitamins, and enhance trace elements. Pay attention to your diet, and your body will be in good health. Maintain a comfortable mood. During pregnancy, pay attention to the reasonable combination of your diet, eat more fruits, vegetables, foods that nourish yin and moisturize dryness, promote fluid production and nourish the lungs, beans, and seasonal fruits. Eat less spicy and greasy foods, ensure adequate water intake, and keep bowel movements regular.
