During pregnancy, expectant mothers often complain of problems with increased puffiness.
Balanced diet
Be sure to add animal protein to your diet. The daily rate should be up to 75 grams. Also, don't forget about fresh fruits and vegetables. Their rate should be up to 5 units of food per day. It is best to choose multi-colored foods. It is important for a pregnant woman to reduce the amount of artificial fats and the consumption of processed foods: they are often the cause of edema. At the same time, concentrate your attention on foods rich in vitamins E and C: citrus fruits, melon, tomatoes, strawberries, broccoli. In addition to preventing edema, good nutrition will help you not gain excess weight during pregnancy.
Frequent drinking
Although edema often occurs precisely because of the excess of excess water in the body, it is water that helps a pregnant woman prevent their occurrence. The fact is that water flushes out excess salt from the body. This means that it eliminates the need to accumulate excess fluid.Choose comfortable shoes
Special socks or knee-highs can also help to cope with edema. Thanks to them, a pregnant woman will be able to get rid of venous stasis in the legs. Along with this, placental blood flow improves, and blood flows more actively to the fetus in late pregnancy.
