Women preparing for pregnancy should consume more natural vegetables and fruits—such as spinach and cherries—to help meet their folate requirements during pregnancy. Additionally, women in the preconception period should moderately supplement high-quality protein and collagen; stewed pig trotters are an excellent choice. If anemia is present during preconception, foods such as pork liver and red dates may be consumed to support blood replenishment and vital energy (Qi) enhancement. Consuming lotus seed porridge in moderation can also help nourish Qi and strengthen the body.
