Answers:
I have a natural remedy book here that says peppermint tea is good for morning sickness but dont take more than one or two cups at a time as large amounts of peppermint can trigger miscarriage.
Of course you can!
it's a very healthy drink - its not alcohol, or anything!
Yes you can,it's a herbal tea so no problem..
peppermint tea is pretty harmless, my ex husbands family used to give peppermint tea to their babies to calm stomach complaints it worked so it should be ok
Well i use it every day.Good for digestion.
yes, that is completely fine. just know tho that if you ever have any questions regardless of how stupid you may think that they are, you can call your ob/gyn...
Hi,
There is no evidence that we are aware of that indicates Peppermint tea should be avoided.
When planning what to eat and drink, remember:
· Processed foods with added preservatives and colourings contain high levels of undesirable chemicals
· White flour products or anything with added sugars provide little nutrition at the price of a lot of calories. Look at the list of ingredients on the labels of processed foods – you may be surprised how many apparently savoury foods actually contain sugar!
· Sweet fizzy drinks – even if you choose the low calorie versions – are not good for you as they provide few nutrients and may contain harmful additives
· Strong coffee and tea adversely affect the digestive system; tannic acid in tea drunk with a meal can reduce iron absorption. Excess caffeine and tannic acid may not be good for the baby
· Certain foods may harbour dangerous bacteria and should be avoided during pregnancy: pate and soft cheeses (listeria), raw eggs (salmonella)
· Liver or liver products should be eaten in moderation
· Undercooked meat, pasteurised goat’s milk and goat’s milk products may contain a parasite called toxoplasma, which can seriously harm the unborn baby. Only eat meat that has been cooked thoroughly. Avoid unpasteurised goat's milk and goat’s milk products
· Wash all fruits and vegetables thoroughly before eating or cooking to remove any traces of soil
· Certain moulds produce toxic substances so avoid eating fruits and vegetables with diseased skins, or any foods that are very mouldy, or dried foods that are stale. It is not enough to remove the mouldy parts as the harmful substances can penetrate deeper and they will not be destroyed by cooking.
