Which types of fish should pregnant women eat to supplement iron?
Disease description:
I’ve been pregnant for several months, and I’ve recently experienced dizziness. My checkup revealed mild anemia. Which types of fish are recommended for pregnant women to help boost iron intake?
Most types of fish are suitable. Fish contain protein, which enhances calcium absorption. You may also consume more iron-rich foods, such as red dates, red beans, and meat. Spinach is another beneficial option for dietary supplementation. During pregnancy, maintain a balanced and well-planned diet with diverse food choices; stay in good spirits to avoid “internal heat” (a traditional Chinese medicine concept referring to inflammatory or hyperactive conditions), avoid exposure to cold, prevent infections, and attend regular prenatal check-ups at the hospital.
