It is generally not recommended to grow poinsettias if there are pregnant women at home, because the white juice that flows out of its stems and leaves can irritate the skin of pregnant women, causing redness and itching, which is harmful to pregnant women and children. The disadvantages of raising poinsettias when there is a pregnant woman at home are: Stimulates the nerves of pregnant womenPoinsettia flowers are accompanied by a strong fragrance, which may irritate the nerves of pregnant women, causing adverse reactions such as headaches and nausea. It can also affect the appetite of pregnant women, and in severe cases lead to fetal instability or even miscarriage. Therefore, pregnant women should avoid contact with flowers with strong smells, such as poinsettia, jasmine, and oleander during pregnancy. These plants will release carbon dioxide and absorb oxygen at night, which may cause the oxygen content in the indoor air to drop, so they should not be placed in the bedroom. Cause emotional excitementPlants with overly bright colors, such as poinsettia, can stimulate the human spirit and make people excited, but pregnant women will be more sensitive and irritable than usual. Bright colors will have the opposite effect and make pregnant women more irritable. Juice irritates skinThe white latex in the stems and leaves of poinsettia contains a variety of toxic alkaloids. Once the pregnant mother's skin comes into contact with poinsettia, it may cause redness, swelling, fever, itching and local papules. Causes pollen allergyPollen generally contains certain chemical components that may cause allergies if it falls on the skin or is inhaled into the respiratory tract. |
