Introduction
Under normal circumstances, pregnant women can consume moderate amounts of cooling fruits such as apples, grapes, strawberries, blueberries, and kiwifruit. In addition, pregnant women may also eat moderate amounts of other cooling fruits such as pears and pomelos. However, it should be noted that excessive consumption of cooling fruits may cause gastrointestinal discomfort. Therefore, they should be thoroughly washed before consumption to ensure food hygiene.

Generally speaking, pregnant women can consume mildly cooling fruits in moderation, such as apples, grapes, strawberries, blueberries, and kiwifruit. Detailed explanations are as follows:

1. Apples

Apples are cool in nature and sweet in taste, rich in various vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber. Their nutrients are easily absorbed by the human body, can promote intestinal motility in pregnant women, help alleviate constipation that may occur during pregnancy, and do not cause adverse stimulation to either the pregnant woman or the fetus, making them suitable for moderate consumption.

2. Grapes

Grapes are cool in nature and contain abundant glucose, fructose, vitamins, and minerals such as calcium and iron. These components provide energy and nutrition for pregnant women, and iron helps prevent iron-deficiency anemia during pregnancy. Moderate consumption benefits both maternal and fetal health.

3. Strawberries

Strawberries are cool, sour-sweet, and rich in vitamin C, folic acid, and dietary fiber. Vitamin C enhances the pregnant woman's immunity, folic acid is important for fetal nervous system development, and dietary fiber aids digestion. Moderate consumption by pregnant women can replenish nutrition and is easily digested.

4. Blueberries

Blueberries are cool in nature and rich in anthocyanins, vitamins, and antioxidant substances. Anthocyanins have antioxidant properties that protect the pregnant woman's vision, and their nutrients also promote fetal development, making them a good choice for moderate consumption.

5. Kiwifruit

Kiwifruit is cool in nature and rich in vitamin C, vitamin K, and dietary fiber. It contains a high level of vitamin C, which helps pregnant women enhance their immunity, and dietary fiber helps relieve constipation during pregnancy. Moderate consumption can replenish nutrients and benefit maternal health.

In addition, pregnant women can also consume pears, pomelos, and other cooling fruits in moderation. However, it should be noted that cooling fruits should not be consumed in excess to avoid gastrointestinal discomfort. They should be thoroughly washed before consumption to ensure food hygiene. At the same time, pregnant women should maintain a diversified diet to ensure balanced nutrition.

Can you get braces while pregnant?
In general, it is possible to wear braces during pregnancy, but the sensitive periods of the first and third trimesters should be avoided, with the second trimester being the preferred time to begin orthodontic treatment. Pregnancy itself does not affect the effectiveness of orthodontic correction; however, there are special physiological changes during pregnancy. The first trimester is a critical period for fetal organ development, and pregnant women often experience nausea, vomiting, and other early pregnancy symptoms. Wearing braces at this stage may exacerbate oral discomfort.
