Coffee during pregnancy
Medical expert of the article
Last reviewed: 23.04.2024
Is coffee available during pregnancy? This question is asked more than one generation of workers in the scientific and medical sphere. Especially since coffee production has already reached a new level and now it can include not only organic elements, but also various chemical impurities.
Pregnancy is the best condition of a woman, despite all the unpleasant sensations and discomfort. Pregnancy renews the body of a woman. However, pregnancy is time to think not only about yourself, as a person, as an independent person, as a self-sufficient woman who has achieved something in life, but most importantly is the time to realize that you are giving life to a small person, a new person , which you will love most.
Also during pregnancy, it is necessary to realize that the health of your future baby depends on your choice, your style and the rhythm of your life. Therefore, it is necessary to regulate the quality, quantity and frequency of food intake, as well as the liquid being drunk. Everyone knows that during the gestation of a child, as well as throughout breastfeeding, a woman should not consume alcohol and, preferably, nicotine, since these factors may negatively reflect on the development of your baby's organs, which in the future will lead to frequent, possibly chronic, diseases, and in the worst case - death.
However, we are interested in the use of hot drinks, and in particular how coffee affects pregnancy. Many people do not even imagine their day without consuming coffee. But the question of its use during pregnancy should be considered more carefully.
