Why do pregnant women's tastes vary1

  1. Many pregnant women often find that their diet preferences have changed greatly after pregnancy, and even some strange behaviors may appear. For example, some pregnant women like to smell gasoline or Stinky tofu in the early pregnancy, but they hate this kind of smell before pregnancy. And this situation mainly occurs when the secretion levels of various hormones in the body increase after pregnancy, which can stimulate the digestive tract and make local sensory nerves more sensitive, so there are changes in this aspect, and the taste is often variable.

  2. Most early pregnant women tend to prefer sour or spicy foods in their diet, but their gastrointestinal function often decreases due to pregnancy reactions. Therefore, even if they like to eat excessively sour or spicy foods, they must be moderate and not consume too much, otherwise it will worsen pregnancy. Moreover, an excessively spicy diet is not conducive to pregnancy health.

  3. If women during pregnancy show a preference for a certain type of food, they should also exercise moderation and consume it reasonably, rather than eating a single food for a long time. To avoid excessive picky and selective eating during pregnancy, which may result in insufficient nutrition intake during pregnancy. Pregnant women's diet should be diversified to ensure comprehensive and balanced intake of nutrients.
