Faba bean disease is a metabolic disorder. Some women who suffer from this disease may also worry about it during pregnancy, fearing that improper consumption of certain foods may trigger fava bean disease. This not only affects their own health, but more importantly, may be detrimental to the healthy development of the fetus. So, what should pregnant women not eat if they have fava bean disease?
1. Pregnant women with fava bean disease need to pay extra attention to their daily diet. Firstly, it is absolutely forbidden to consume fava beans and some deeply processed products of fava beans, such as fava bean vermicelli, fava bean paste made from fava beans, and pastry food made from fava bean powder.
2. Pregnant women with fava bean disease should not eat foods containing mint seasonings. There are many foods in daily life that add a small amount of mint seasoning, such as mint flavored ice cream, cool mint type chewing gum, and cakes containing mint. Some toothpastes also contain peppermint ingredients, so do not come into contact with or consume such foods or products. Camphor and honeysuckle cannot be used either.
3. In addition, it should be noted that broad beans are planted in some areas, and broad bean pollen can also induce the disease of pregnant women with broad bean disease in the flowering season of broad beans, so be sure to stay away from these planting places and avoid contact with broad bean pollen. As long as pregnant women with broad bean disease can avoid eating such food and contacting broad bean pollen, they will not affect their health during pregnancy, just like normal pregnant women.
