對腸胃好的燕麥
「我懷孕4個月，適合飲哪款紙包米水？」
「紙包夕米水、紙包紅豆米水、紙包燕麥米水均不含薏米，適合孕婦飲用啊。」
「懷孕可以吃燕麥嗎？網上流傳說會滑胎的！」
網絡力量很強大，強大到不少流言及謬誤都傳到言之鑿鑿，看到「滑胎」二字真的嚇怕不少準媽媽。準媽媽們為安全計當然寧可信其有，結果冤枉了健康有益的燕麥了。
從中醫角度來看，燕麥性平，味甘，具補脾益氣、止虛汗的作用，它含有豐富纖維，有滑腸通便作用，滑腸並不會導致滑胎，如果孕媽媽有便秘煩惱，不妨多吃燕麥啊！惟注意不要食用過量，否則容易因消化不良或引致脹氣。
外國流行Overnight Oats的吃法，燕麥加入冰凍牛奶或豆漿，然後放入雪櫃隔一夜取出食用，從中醫角度來看並不建議這種吃法，因為生冷食物會對脾胃造成負擔，建議煮熱燕麥食用。
而飲用燕麥米水，除了有健脾胃、止虛汗作用，亦能增強消化力，孕媽媽每天養成飲用米水的習慣，有助健脾養胎呢！
Oatmeal is healthy for your digestive system
“I am 4 months pregnant, which paper pack rice water would be recommended?”
“Paper pack dawn rice water, paper pack red bean rice water, paper pack oatmeal rice water do not contain coix seeds, so they are suitable for pregnant women to drink.”
“Can I have oatmeal during pregnancy? Some reports on the internet claims that it could cause miscarriage!”
The power of internet can be very strong, and a lot of false news and urban myths are spread as if they are real. The word “miscarriage” is frightening for expecting mothers. They would rather to be safe than sorry and avoid oatmeal even if it may be beneficial.
From a Chinese medicine perspective, oatmeal is mild in nature and sweet in taste. It can strengthen the spleen, nourish qi and stop excessive sweating. It is rich in fibre and can loosen the bowels to relieve constipation. Loosening bowel does not lead to miscarriage. If pregnant mother has constipation, she may eat more oatmeal. But remember do not consume too much as it may cause indigestion or abdominal bloating.
Overnight Oats is popular overseas. Mix frozen milk or soy milk with oatmeal, and consume after placing in the fridge overnight. It is not recommended from the perspective of Chinese medicine because eating cold/raw food will cause a burden on the spleen and stomach. It is recommended to eat cooked oatmeal.
Besides strengthening spleen and stomach, and stopping excessive sweating, drinking oatmeal rice water can enhance digestion. Pregnant mothers should develop the habit of drinking rice water every day, which helps to strengthen the spleen and nourish the baby.
