Eating pig blood during pregnancy will not cause miscarriage. Pig blood is rich in nutrients such as protein, phosphorus, iron, calcium, and zinc, which can provide essential nourishment for fetal development. Moreover, pig blood has a blood-nourishing effect that promotes blood production and helps stabilize the fetus's blood supply. However, consumption should be moderate, as pig blood is relatively high in sodium; excessive intake may lead to elevated blood pressure.
