Many expectant mothers know that their dietary preferences have changed after pregnancy, and they always like to eat some special foods, such as crayfish. Because I know that many foods cannot be eaten indiscriminately, I am also worried and want to know if I can eat crayfish while pregnant?
Usually, we do not recommend pregnant women to eat crayfish because the environment in which crayfish are grown is highly polluted, and the resulting crayfish contain a toxin that may not be a major problem for ordinary people to eat, but pregnant women are more special. If they eat crayfish, they may experience diarrhea, vomiting, and other symptoms. In addition, some pregnant women who consume crayfish may cause fetal infection and even develop parasites, leading to miscarriage. Therefore, it is not recommended for pregnant women to eat crayfish.
Pregnant women must pay attention to controlling their diet and try not to eat artificially farmed seafood like crayfish, because crayfish contain E. coli, which can easily cause diarrhea. Even if they are cooked, some bacteria inside cannot be completely destroyed. Therefore, it is better for pregnant women not to eat crayfish.
Pregnant women's diet should be mainly light, and they can eat more vegetables and fruits. If they want to supplement elements such as calcium and zinc, they can eat more large bones, which can also supplement the nutrients needed by the body and provide favorable conditions for the growth of the fetus.
