I am researching things on the Internet to bring to everyone information on how to get pregnant, and came across this tid-bit.
Pineapple Juice
Usage: There is an old wives' tale floating around that pineapple juice will help a fertilized egg implant. However, pineapple juice is not recommended for use in TTC and/or pregnancy. In large doses, it can cause uterine contractions and bring on spontaneous abortions (miscarriage).
Recommended Dosage: Drink only in small quantities, if at all.
Food Sources: Pineapples.
Side Effects: Large doses may cause uterine contractions, miscarriage, vomiting, diarrhea, skin rash, very heavy menstrual periods. Unripe pineapple is poisonous, causing excessive diarrhea.
Now this can seem kinda scary, and makes me wonder what other foods might contribute to the m/c that women might experience. So with this being said, stay away from pineapple juice just in case! lol
Anyone heard of this, or know of other foods/drinks that might have these kind of side effects?
