Is it really true that pregnant women cannot eat spices like Sichuan peppercorns?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

Generally, the adverse effects of consuming a small amount of Sichuan pepper may not be significant and are related to individual differences. Moreover, the amount of Sichuan pepper and other seasonings in meals is actually quite small, and people with normal constitutions are unlikely to have any noticeable reactions.
