Hello,
With the question “Is it okay for women to eat buffalo meat 4 months after giving birth? ", the doctor replied as follows:
In the past, there were many notions that pregnant women should not eat buffalo meat because buffalo meat is too cool to cool the stomach, causing milk loss,... However until now. Because there is no evidence or documentation that eating buffalo meat will lead to loss of milk or postpartum problems. On the contrary, the nutritional composition of buffalo meat is very good for women after giving birth, as long as you do not eat too much or do not combine with things that are not suitable for buffalo meat.
The mother's body after giving birth may lack nutrients, poor physical strength, weakness, fatigue, stress, not absorbing nutrients, leading to exhaustion and the risk of disease. Along with that, the mother's psychology and the care of her loved ones can also affect the condition of the disease, making the body more susceptible to disease.
During pregnancy and postpartum health care, you need to go to medical facilities with a team of doctors with high professional qualifications and many years of experience in the profession for more thorough examination and advice.
