Can you eat honey while breastfeeding?

You can eat honey while breastfeeding, but you should not overdo it, otherwise it may cause diarrhea and can also lead to elevated blood sugar.
Honey is rich in glucose and fructose, but also contains vitamins, amino acids and other nutrients. Properly eating honey during breastfeeding can laxative, improve sleep quality, etc., but it is not recommended to overdose, or due to poor digestion and absorption leading to diarrhea and other symptoms.
In addition, due to the high sugar content in honey, large amounts of honey intake may cause maternal blood sugar increase, increasing the risk of diabetes and other diseases, which is detrimental to health.
During the breastfeeding period, it is recommended that mothers take rest, avoid exertion, and go to the hospital for a postnatal checkup on the 42nd day after delivery.
