What Are the Dietary Dos and Donts for Patients with Uterine Fluid Accumulation?
1. The diet should be light and bland. It is best to avoid shrimp, crab, mutton, dog meat, eel, salted fish, black fish, and other "hairy" foods, as these foods may aggravate the condition or cause recurrence of old diseases.
2. Maintain a low-fat diet and consume more chicken, eggs, quail eggs, lean meat, crucian carp, soft-shelled turtle, white fish, celery, spinach, cucumber, winter melon, mushrooms, tofu, kelp, seaweed, fruits, and other cold dishes and fruits.
3. Eat more whole grains such as beans and corn, as well as nutritious dried fruits such as sesame seeds, peanuts, and melon seeds. For meals in daily life, eat on time and in moderation, avoiding overeating.
4. Consume more seaweed foods such as cabbage, napa cabbage, kelp, and sea mustard. Seaweed foods are rich in minerals such as calcium, iron, sodium, magnesium, phosphorus, and iodine. Modern science believes that regularly eating seaweed foods can effectively regulate blood pH and avoid excessive consumption of alkaline elements in the body due to acid neutralization. Patients with uterine fibroids should generally consume more seaweed foods.
