Question
An infant is about one month old and recently has had a yellowish color in their urine, and often cries and refuses to eat during breastfeeding. Some people believe this may be due to the infant’s memory of Fetal toxin. How should one help an infant eliminate Fetal toxin?
Answer
Fetal toxin is considered a severe postpartum acute allergic reaction in folklore, but modern medicine does not advocate for the elimination of Fetal toxin. Folk remedies suggest that pregnant women should reduce the intake of high-fat, spicy, foods during pregnancy, and supplement vitamins and trace elements to improve intestinal flora imbalance, thereby reducing the effects of Fetal toxin. After three months of pregnancy, green bean soup and lotus seed egg soup can be consumed, and after the baby is born, keep the bowels regular and appropriately supplement probiotics to alleviate the effects of Fetal toxin.
