Let’s look at foods to eat and stay away from when having your period:
What to eat:
leafy green vegetables
Especially if your flow is thick, the drop in iron levels during your period is common. Dizziness, weariness, and physical pain may result from this. During this period, green leafy vegetables will aid in maintaining your iron levels.
Ginger
Ginger can relieve sore muscles and has anti-inflammatory properties. During your menstruation, sipping on a cup of ginger tea will work.
Fish
Iron and Omega-3 fatty acids are abundant in fish. You can maintain your iron levels by eating fish while you are menstruating.
Â
Avoid these foods:
Sweets
Problems like gas and bloating may result from eating sweet foods. Fruit juices are a better choice if you want to consume anything sweet.
savoury foods
Do you get exhausted and bleed a lot during your periods? Well, eating spicy food at this time can add gas and bloating to your list of period-related illnesses.
packaged food
Your bloating may get worse if you eat canned food or meat that has been severely processed.
