Red jujube is rich in folic acid, which is involved in the formation of blood cells and promotes the development of fetal nervous system. And jujube contains trace element zinc, which is conducive to the development of fetal brain and promotes the development of fetal intelligence.

Iodine containing food, if iodine deficiency, then the most likely cause of disease is hypothyroidism. Women in pregnancy, their own and fetal demand for iodine should increase, if this time do not pay attention to iodine, then it is likely to cause hypothyroidism. If you suffer from hypothyroidism, you should eat more iodine containing foods, such as kelp, sea fish, laver and other seafood, especially sea fish, once every 2-3 days, which can fully meet the iodine demand of yourself and your baby. In addition to seafood, spinach, Chinese cabbage, yam, eggs and iodized salt are also very good.
