Healthy women can eat durian during the menstrual period, but it is not suitable for women who have had a cesarean section, have not fully recovered from small intestinal adhesions, or have diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or obesity. In clinical practice, “menstruation” refers to the puerperium period, which is usually 6 weeks, and is used to help women restore their organs, except for the breast, to a normal, unpregnant state after delivery. During the menstrual period, it is important to ensure a nutritious and calorie-rich diet, and to focus on hydration. Durian is rich in protein, vitamins, fat, carbohydrates and fiber, as well as minerals such as calcium, iron, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, magnesium and selenium, and is rich in calories and nutrients, so pregnant women sitting on their monthly period can eat durian in moderation. In addition, Chinese medicine believes that durian is a hot food, which helps to invigorate blood and dispel cold, relieve menstrual pain, improve abdominal coldness and promote the rise of body temperature, so it is more suitable for pregnant women with postpartum coldness to eat in moderation. Because of its hot nature, durian should not be consumed in excess, especially by women suffering from constipation and hemorrhoids. If you like to eat durian, you can choose a durian with a strong fragrance and a multi-pronged shape, and avoid those that already smell like alcohol. It is not advisable to eat too much durian at a time to avoid catching fire. You can make pastries or pancakes by mashing the durian flesh into a filling, or you can clean the shell and boil it for drinking.
