Can drinking tea be harmful for pregnant women?

During pregnancy, women are advised to avoid certain foods such as semi-raw meat, while some circles also consider caffeine to be dangerous.

However, according to medical experts, it is not necessary to give up tea and coffee completely during pregnancy.

They said that caffeine can be used during pregnancy in moderation.

"Moderation is the key. If you're addicted to too much tea or coffee, it's a good idea to reduce that amount during pregnancy," she said.

"Keep in mind that not only tea or coffee contains caffeine, but also chocolate and certain medicines," he said.

Experts say that caffeine consumption raises blood pressure and heart rate and these are the factors that need to be avoided during pregnancy while it is even more difficult for newborns to metabolize caffeine as a result of which their Sleep patterns are affected and they can be uncomfortable.

They emphasized that some medical research reports have suggested that high caffeine intake during pregnancy increases the risk of miscarriage, but that moderate consumption of these hot drinks reduces the risk.

A study from Dublin College University in Ireland last year found that drinking just 3 cups of tea or 2 cups of coffee a day during pregnancy can increase the risk of low birth weight or premature birth.

Researchers believe that caffeine in tea or coffee can interfere with a mother's development by interfering with the mother's blood supply.

However, medical experts say that looking at the research reports, there is no evidence that caffeine should be given up completely, just limit the amount, if there is more concern, consult your doctor.

They said that 200 mg of caffeine is safe for pregnant women which is equivalent to 2 cups of instant coffee.
