Children have a faster metabolism, while adults have a slower metabolism. If the metabolism is slow, the body is not very good, and it is easy to develop obesity, fear of cold, poor skin, and other conditions. Therefore, it is necessary to regulate through exercise and diet in daily life. Is the metabolism of pregnant women faster or slower than usual?
Pregnant women have a faster metabolism than usual, not only because their metabolism is faster, but also because their body's ability to flow blood is faster. For example, the circulation of fat in the body will become faster, which is why pregnant women always feel hungry. Many pregnant women also need to eat some snacks after finishing their meals.
The sugar metabolism during pregnancy will also be accelerated, and diabetes is prone to occur during pregnancy, which is mainly due to the strong insulin function, which can absorb sugar very strongly, so don't eat too many sweets during pregnancy. Protein metabolism during pregnancy also accelerates, so protein supplementation is also necessary during pregnancy.
If the metabolic rate slows down during pregnancy, it will affect the normal growth and development of the fetus. For example, some pregnant women with slow metabolism are prone to constipation, as well as dizziness, fatigue, loss of appetite, and other conditions, which can also affect the development of the fetus. To avoid slow metabolism during pregnancy, it is recommended to eat more vegetables and fruits, reduce intake of fat and protein, regulate diet reasonably, and exercise more to burn fat, which can help accelerate metabolism.
