I believe many people have the habit of drinking tea in their daily lives, because after all, China's tea culture has a long history and is deeply influenced by it. However, for women, they need to pay extra attention to their diet during their menstrual period every month, otherwise it may cause discomfort to the body. Can I drink chrysanthemum tea during my period?
It is not recommended to drink chrysanthemum tea during menstruation. Although chrysanthemum tea has obvious detoxification and fire reducing functions, it is not recommended to drink chrysanthemum tea during menstruation due to its cool nature. During menstruation, women's bodies are relatively weak and their resistance is also relatively low. If they eat cold food, it may have an impact on their menstrual cycle. Some women may also experience abdominal pain. Moreover, being exposed to cold during menstruation is not conducive to blood circulation in the body, which may result in incomplete elimination of menstrual blood and bring other impacts to the body.
At the same time, drinking tea during menstruation can accelerate the loss of iron elements in the body. Because many women suffer from iron deficiency anemia, and during menstruation, iron is already lost, coupled with the effect of drinking tea, which may exacerbate the problem of anemia. In addition to chrysanthemum tea, cassia seed tea, honeysuckle green tea, and other cold drinks are important for women to avoid during their menstrual period. During menstruation, due to special physical conditions, it is recommended to drink more hot water or a cup of warm milk with honey added before bedtime to help with sleep.
