Corn should not be consumed during the fasting period before a cesarean section; otherwise, corn may be consumed in moderation before and after a cesarean section.
Since anesthesia is injected prior to a cesarean section, there is a 6-8 hour water fast before the surgery, during which time no food or drink, including corn, may be consumed. Otherwise, corn can be eaten in moderation before and after a C-section.
Corn contains calories (86 kcal/100g), protein (3.27g/100g), carbohydrates (18.7g/100g), crude fiber (2g/100g), etc. Moderate consumption of corn can supplement the body with the required nutrients.
Maternity diet should be rich in nutrients, sufficient calories and water; for mothers who need to breastfeed, they should also eat more protein, calorie-rich foods, and take appropriate vitamin and iron supplements.
It is advisable to consult your doctor and seek medical attention if you feel unwell.
