Pregnancy Nutrition elements in comments

Do you know? To ensure the normal development of the fetus, after pregnancy, there are some nutrients is also a need to appropriate additional. Furthermore, many experts believe that nutritional preparations should goes forward. Put it on the agenda only if you wait until after pregnancy, pregnant women may have to pay the costs of health damage itself, fetal growth often will be all their negative implications. So, should focus its attention on those before pregnancy nutrition problems?


Before pregnancy should focus its attention on nutrition


Give her weight to reach standard


Before pregnancy if weight is too low, shows poor nutritional status, easy low birth weight infants; and obesity are easy to own some complications of pregnancy, such as hypertension, diabetes, and can lead to abnormal body weight infants were born, so prepare for pregnant women first to achieve the standard weight.


Method of calculating standard weight: height (cm): 110 reduction, income differences (kg) is the standard weight.


Correct nutritional imbalances


Pregnant and you\'ve probably seen before anemia symptoms, may also have had a diet to lose weight, fat restriction of animal food and experience, nutritional imbalances or excessive fat accumulation in the body. From a genetic perspective, pregnant women\'s nutritional imbalance would lead to shortage of nutrients required for fetal development or excessive in genetic disadvantage. The nutritional status of women before pregnancy should own for a comprehensive understanding and, if necessary, can also help diagnosis, doctors, to purposefully adjusted diet, active storage of normally low levels of nutrients in the body.


Nutrition during pregnancy Quartet


In addition to maintaining nutritional balance during pregnancy, but also special enhanced nutrient intake of the following:


Folic acid--fetal brain development \"pillars\"


Important vitamin folic acid is related to fetal brain development, in pregnancy and early before a certain amount of folate supplementation may prevent fetal neural tube defects.


Love reminder: If lack of folic acid, can cause megaloblastic anemia.


Recommendations: during pregnancy, especially early necessary for appropriate folic acid supplementation during pregnancy. In addition to the drugs to supplement that contains folic acid can be used outside of folic acid, food folate accountants is quite high, it is widespread among the leafy vegetables, such as vegetables, cabbage, citrus and bananas have more folic acid in fruit, beef liver in animal foods contain more folic acid. Therefore, from the food, volume of vegetables after pregnancy should be increased as far as possible, fruit should select appropriate content of vitamins more varieties.


Iron--keep your blood over beauty


Insufficient iron intake can easily suffer from iron deficiency anemia, have a serious adverse effect on pregnant women and fetus may lead to preterm or low birth weight infants, fetuses may also suffer from iron deficiency anemia. Due to the baby\'s blood from the mother of iron, protein, porphyrins in the blood and other raw materials to manufacturing, an increase in the consumption of iron during pregnancy than non-pregnant. At the same time also faced blood dilution during pregnancy problems, more red protein in the blood caused by falling.


During pregnancy due to early pregnancy pregnant Mommy reaction poor appetite or fussy, improper eating causes insufficient iron intake. If you add less natural causes anaemia, mild anemia can cause symptoms such as dizziness, dazzled, the chest is stuffy.


Love reminder:


1, if the continuing decline in hemoglobin, will cause a decline in immunity, infection, fetal malnutrition, growth retardation, and so on.


2, severe anaemia and even cause disorder of coagulation during labour, bleeding, and other life-threatening consequences.


Recommendation: after you become pregnant should eat iron-rich foods: animal offal, such as liver, heart,; red meat such as beef, pigs, rabbits and other; animal blood. These are rich in iron in hemoglobin and Myoglobin iron, easier to attract and benefit from the human body. In plant foods, Sesame, date, black sticky rice, red bean, also contain higher concentrations of iron, but plant sources of iron in the relatively low absorption rate during pregnancy, only as a secondary, you cannot rely on these foods to iron supplementation. Vegetable spinach iron accountant in higher, but it contains oxalic acid inhibits iron absorption, it is not the best choice for iron.


Calcium--fetal skeletal development \"password\"


Calcium is an important component of human bones, teeth, when the fetus was born from a fertilized egg grows to around 50 cm in length, to consume the mother a large amount of calcium. Data proves that need extra calcium during pregnancy is about 30g, in which fetal 27.4g, 1g of the placenta, maternal 1g.


Chinese nutrition society recommended dietary calcium supply in standards: pregnant and 4-6 months 1000mg daily, 7-9 months gestation 1500mg per day.


Love reminder: mild calcium deficiency may cause pregnant Mummy leg cramp, numbness of limbs, insomnia and other symptoms. Serious affects the skeletal development of the baby, causing congenital rickets, rickets children major growth of bones and teeth, chicken breast and O-leg, may occur.


Recommendations: in food, milk contains more calcium, and the absorption rate is best, in addition to the lactose intolerant people, pregnant Mummy should drink milk every day, or eat yogurt, milk, cheese.


Other foods, such as soy, seafood, some dried fruit may have more calcium, although absorption has no milk is good, but often eat some calcium supplements also has benefits. Bones and bone soup, calcium is in the form of hydroxyl phosphate exist, human body absorption rate is very low and benefits of calcium supplementation is not too great.


--In the human body structure of protein \"protagonist\"


Protein is an important components that make up the baby\'s body. Of pregnant women living in the city, unless the vegetarian (and people who do not eat eggs, milk, soy products) or poor appetite, pregnancy of prospective mothers reaction violent, of normal pregnant women can eat proteins every day. Especially in early pregnancy the baby is still small, matrix for protein needs

Does not significantly increase, so it does not require special supplement.

Some people are afraid of huge fetal and postnatal figure is difficult to recover, dare not eat more than usual staple foods and meat, in fact, this is misplaced. Experts suggested that the 6-7 months of pregnancy to do when a b-, if not the fetus, at least than usual 30% intake of calories and protein.


Love reminder: to the third trimester, you can increase the 25 grams of protein every day to meet the needs of fetal development.


Recommendations:


1 protein is a complete protein, milk, eggs, most easily absorbed by the body.


2, fish, poultry and other meat dishes is a high quality protein in the protein, protein in dry beans and bean products are also of high quality protein from plant sources, finally is grain cereals, vegetable proteins.


-Less-other vitamins and trace elements


Other vitamins and trace elements in pregnant need to be increased, but the increase is relatively less mentioned several. Because of the human body is of trace need, and is widely present in the food, drink, so unless there is a lack of symptoms, or some complications of patients with special needs (or increase or limit), generally without special supplement, as long as the reasonable balance of diet, not fussy, not 2 food, most of us can be in the amount of food required.


Insufficient quality zinc intake may lead to early pregnant abortion, fetal malformations and other serious consequences. In General, the zinc intake during pregnancy than the usual 40.


Iodine deficiency can cause fetal defects of the neural system. Iodine supplementation is very simple, as long as the burn two or three times a week pork soup with kelp or laver egg soup on the line.


Carbohydrates are the most important immune cell food, it exists in the rice and other foods rich in starch. Pregnancy is a special period, exposure to sufficient balance of nutrition on health of the unborn child has a far-reaching impact. At this point, need more carbohydrates, protein and b vitamins, these need from staples such as rice, corn, bread and meat gets in.


Under the doctor\'s advice, pregnant women may be appropriate to take some nutritional supplements containing multiple elements, they must in addition to giving pregnant women outside of vitamins, calcium and other nutrients, also has beta huluobosu, selenium, zinc, lipoic acid, glutathione, and other trace elements and antioxidants.


Note:


1, the needs of various nutrients during pregnancy has increased more or less than usual, to healthy growth of the baby, pregnant Mummy should focus on learning in nutritional knowledge and dietary supplement nutrition.


2, not just seek to, certain vitamin overdose may cause fetal malformation, abortion and other undesirable consequences.


3, if you want to add vitamins, calcium or any drug, under the best doctor recommended supplement, don\'t own dosing.
