There are many things that women need to pay attention to during confinement. In addition to self-care, diet also needs to be taken seriously. The food consumed should not only have a nourishing effect on the body, but also be prepared to supplement breast milk. This requires strict control of food intake to avoid indirect effects on the fetus. So, can we drink hot chocolate during confinement?
It is best not to drink hot chocolate during confinement, as chocolate contains theobromine, a substance that is an anti sedative and can enhance mental health and excitement. If women consume it, it can affect their babies through breast milk, potentially causing damage to their nervous system and heart, leading to digestive problems and unstable sleep. Therefore, for the sake of their babies' health, women should avoid consuming chocolate during confinement.
Women should not consume chocolate for a long time because it has a high fat content, which can lead to obesity and have a significant impact on appetite. It may hinder women from eating other foods and be not conducive to nutritional balance. Therefore, women should try not to eat chocolate or foods containing theobromine.
During the postpartum period, women must have correct eating habits. Only by adjusting their diet, ensuring that it is non stimulating, and avoiding foods that are harmful to the fetus and body, can they avoid affecting the development of the baby and the recovery of the female body. During this period, it is important to develop the good habit of eating small and frequent meals.
