Patients in the clinic often ask the question: What should I pay attention to in my diet? Doctors in the clinic are very busy, seeing dozens of patients in three or four hours a morning, so patience and explanations become a luxury. What is the diet of patients undergoing assisted conception and in vitro fertilization? Firstly, diet should be healthy and hygienic, secondly, it should be nutritionally balanced, and lastly, it should be supplemented under certain special circumstances. 1, health and hygiene: unhealthy roadside stalls, gutter oil food, vegetables and fruits containing more pesticide residues, not fresh meat, overnight meals, especially vegetables, are not recommended to eat. Food from roadside stalls is directly exposed to the street, and the air in cities with poor air quality is unhygienic with all kinds of floating matter, car exhaust, and smoke from barbecue stalls mixed in with the food. Quote Baidu encyclopedia content: gutter oil “is from hotels, restaurants to collect the driving rain (slop, leftovers, etc.) and gutter oil for processing and refining, remove the odor and flow to the edible oil market finished oil, driving rain oil contains aflatoxin, benzo(a)pyrene, these two toxins are carcinogenic substances, can lead to stomach cancer, intestinal cancer, kidney cancer and cancer of the breast, ovaries, small intestine and other parts. 2.Balanced nutrition: The normal metabolism of human body needs a balance of various nutrients, and the nutrition pyramid can well explain the amount of various nutrients needed and how to balance them. Adults who can eat normally, have no special dietary preferences (such as vegetarians), and are not obviously picky eaters are basically not deficient in nutrients. Some people buy some nutritional products and “advanced” supplements at high prices, which may contain some vitamins and high-protein foods, as can be seen from the dietary pyramid, protein foods are near the tip of the tower, in moderation, vitamins are very important to maintain human metabolism, the need is relatively small, widely present in food, a A person with a normal diet is generally not deficient in vitamins either. For pregnant women or women preparing for pregnancy, if you want to supplement vitamins, you can supplement B vitamins, folic acid and calcium, many pregnant women special multivitamins on the market, not expensive and useful, over-the-counter drugs, can be purchased from regular pharmacies. 3, dietary supplements: many Chinese, especially the Cantonese, pay attention to dietary supplements, a variety of herbs boiled “old fire soup”. From the perspective of Chinese medicine, the motherland’s medicine is vast and profound, many foods can be used medicinally, there are many pharmacopoeias to follow. However, from a western medical point of view, medicine is three points of poison, especially in the fire for a long time “old fire soup”, generally add a lot of meat, long simmering, a large number of purines will dissolve into the broth, often drink purines too high old fire soup, will cause the accumulation of uric acid in the blood, uric acid levels rise, both easily lead to gout, but also damage to the kidneys. Therefore, unless one has special needs and has consulted a reliable TCM dietary supplement person, I don’t recommend any kind of herbs or special foods for a big dietary supplement. To sum up, dietary safety and hygiene come first, balanced nutrition is important, and herbal dietary supplements need to be taken with caution.
