Foods That Cause Miscarriage In Pregnant Women. by tobeetoe(m): 2:51am On Jun 20, 2015
Miscarriage is a very bad thing. Imagine been
pregnant for 6 months, just 3 months to your
day of joy, you have miscarriage. Waste!. May
God help us all.
So as to prevent this tragedy, we are imploring
you on foods and fruits you shouldn't take
during your pregnancy stage.
- Crabs
Crab has a high level of nutrients, provides a
rich source of calcium that helps strengthen
bones and teeth; it’s also a favorite food of
many pregnant women when summer comes.
However, no matter how you love eating crabs,
you need to limit eating them in the first 3
months of pregnancy. That’s because crabs
can cause the uterus to shrink, which leads to
genital bleeding or even miscarriage.
Besides, the content of cholesterol in crabs is
very high. Pregnant women who have high
blood pressure, Pre-eclampsia shouldn’t eat
crabs.
Crab has a high level of nutrients.
- Tortoise
Have you ever heard about the harmful effects
from eating crabs during pregnancy? Tortoise
is good for the kidney, but it’s also fishy and
cold, and able to remove tumor, clear the vein.
So, tortoise has certain harmfulness to
pregnant women, particularly, the tortoise’s
leg can cause miscarriage more easily than its
meat.
- Pineapple
Pregnant women in the first 3 months of
pregnancy shouldn’t eat and drink too much
pineapple juice because this fruit can cause
contraction which leads to miscarriage; cause
diarrhea or allergy to pregnant women. The
reason is that pineapple has bromelain which
is able to soften the uterus and produces
aborticide. However, after this period of time,
pregnant women can eat a moderate and
sensible amount of pineapple.
In the first 3 months of pregnancy, women
shouldn’t eat pineapple.
- Pearl barley
The pearl barley contains lots of amino acid
that is necessary to the body. Eating lots of
pearl barley can provide the energy consumed
because of the high temperature on hot days
and improve resistance power. For women,
having a sensible amount of pearl barley can
help them have a bright, smooth skin, reduce
wrinkles, remove freckles and brown spots.
- Purslain
The purslain is easy to grow, take care of and
find. It’s a herbal remedy and food and has
cold nature. In fact, it’s proved that the
purslain can make quite a stimulation on the
uterus and increase the time and intensity of
the uterus‘s elasticity, which produce the risk
of miscarriage.
- Medlar
The Medlar has an ability to excite the uterus
and stimulate the elasticity.
The Medlar has sour, acrid and sweet flavors
that are very suitable for pregnant women with
their morning sickness, but it’s not good
indeed. According to documents, the Medlar
has an ability to excite the uterus and
stimulate the elasticity, causing miscarriage
and pre-mature birth.
- Caffeine drinks
In pregnancy, if women use caffeine drinks
usually (coffee, tea, coke, tonic, soda,
cocktail…), they’ll have a risk of increasing
heart rate and blood pressure, which leads to
insomnia and headache. Not only that, it also
affects the fetus’s development, which
produces the risk of miscarriage and
premature birth.
- Longan
Longan is delicious and has sweet smell and
flavor. However, this is one of the foods that
pregnant women shouldn’t eat. That’s
because while pregnant, women often feel hot
from inside and constipation. Eating lots of
longans will increase the hot feelings, times of
fetal derangement, bleeding inside, lower
abdomen pain, or even damage the fetus,
which leads to miscarriage.
Longan causes hot flashes which is not good
for pregnant women.
- Unpasteurized milk
The unpasteurized or fresh milk is milk that
hasn’t been through processing. It’s not
popular in the market. In the unpasteurized
milk, there’re listeria bacteria which can
increase the risk of miscarriage.
- Green papaya
A lot of researches have showed that green
papayas or not-really-ripe ones contain lots
of enzyme and pus, which causes gestational
contractions and miscarriage. Moreover, green
papayas contain prostaglandin and oxytocin
that are essential substances to prepare for
the delivery. So, when the fetus isn’t old
enough, eating green papayas can cause
miscarriage.
- Aloe
Aloe can cause pelvic hemorrhage.
Aloe is considered to be magical remedy for
women’s beauty; it helps take care of all kinds
of skin, prevent wrinkles and lose weight.
However, pregnant women shouldn’t drink
aloe juice because it can lead to pelvic
hemorrhage or even miscarriage.
- Barley
Barley is a grain that is processed into many
nutritious products. However, barley can
stimulate uterus’s smooth muscles, causing
miscarriage.
- Animal liver
The animal liver can harm pregnant women
because it’ll contain lots of toxic products if
the animal is infected with diseases. Besides,
liver has plenty of cholesterol and vitamin A. If
pregnant women eat too much liver while
using drugs or other nutritious products, they
can have excess vitamin which badly affect
babies.
- Foods that have plenty of vitamin A
It’s important to avoid vitamin A in pregnancy
because it can cause bad effects and damages
to the fetus. Pregnant women should avoid
eating foods that contain a great amount of
vitamin A (liver…).
- Processed meat
The processed meat including sausage, pate,
stuffed food… must be avoided during
pregnancy. According to the latest research,
eating too much processed meat can harm the
fetus. In the worse situation, it can cause fetal
poisoning or lead to miscarriage.
Pregnant women who crave this food should
only eat a small amount of it and take notice
of the temperature that the food is processed
in for safety.
Pregnant women shouldn’t eat raw or
uncooked foods.
- Uncooked meat
The toxoplasmosis parasite is able to live in
uncooked meat and cause some complication
like miscarriage, stillbirth, and others when
pregnant women are in their first 3 months of
pregnancy. You should cook meat well and
carefully process foods to get rid of the
parasites in it.
- Raw, uncooked eggs
Raw or uncooked eggs can be infected with
salmonella which brings trouble to pregnant
women and their fetus. Salmonella can go
through the placenta and cause severe
infection or even death to the fetus.
You’d better avoid foods including uncooked
eggs like salad, homemade ice-cream,
mayonnaise… When cooking eggs, you should
make sure that both of the egg yolk and white
are well done.
- Cheese
Cheese is not really a safe food for pregnant
women to eat.
Cheese is not really a safe food for pregnant
women to eat. Cheeses should be avoid during
pregnancy, such as: cheese camembe, cheese
rocopho, feta cheese, Gorgonzola cheese and
other Mexican cheeses. The compound of
those cheeses has some bacteria which can
cause miscarriage. You should only eat
cheeses that are made of pasteurized milk.
