In your childhood memories, which of your mother's words impressed you the most?
I thought: "Drink some porridge, nourish the stomach" should also be in the top ten.
When it comes to stomach nourishment, in addition to white porridge, there is also a series of "stomach food" list, what millet porridge, yam, pumpkin, ginger black tea.......
But then again, can these really nourish the stomach?
The stomach is one of the most important digestive organs in the human body
If the stomach function is impaired, the food eaten by the human body cannot be digested and absorbed smoothly, which has a very huge negative impact on physical health.
Porridge and noodles are mainly gelatinized starch, low in protein content, and there is no fat, it is difficult to chew and very easy to be digested and absorbed by the human body.
Therefore, for friends whose digestive function is reduced due to excessive greasy diet, proper consumption of rice porridge and noodles can indeed effectively reduce the burden of digestion and thus alleviate gastrointestinal discomfort.
Hey, isn't that stomach-nourishing?
Then you're wrong.
You know, the stomach also has the characteristics of "use in and out", if you eat these easy to digest food for a long time, the digestion ability of the stomach will gradually deteriorate, or even worse.
In addition, long-term eating of two things, the damage to the stomach is also there:
On the one hand, for patients with stomach diseases with special conditions, such as excessive gastric acid secretion, it is not suitable to eat a large amount of rice porridge, otherwise it is likely to further stimulate gastric acid secretion, resulting in continuous aggravation of the disease.
On the other hand, although rice porridge and noodles are easy to digest, their nutritional value is not high. If it is consumed for a long time, it is easy to lead to malnutrition, which will also have a negative impact on gastrointestinal maintenance.
Can steamed buns, bread, and biscuits also nourish the stomach?
Due to fermentation, steamed buns are indeed easy to digest and absorb, but eating too much will also easily cause stomach bloating and acid reflux.
And bread, biscuits are mostly high sugar, high salt and high oil, eat more will also be easy to acidify, the most important thing will make you fat!
Yams and pumpkins can indeed nourish the stomach, but they should not eat more
Yam is rich in polysaccharides, which can protect the gastric mucosa, but rely on eating yam to achieve an effective dose of polysaccharides, it is estimated that your stomach may be burst by yam.
As for the pumpkins, they are indeed easy to digest after reasonable cooking, but it is also easy to hold up when you eat more.
If you want to nourish your stomach scientifically, what should you do?
Instead of eating so-called stomach-nourishing foods, the real stomach needs to do these things:
1. Eat on time
Among the many organs of the human body, the punctuality of the stomach is the strongest. Therefore, in order to maintain good stomach function, the first thing to do is to eat on time.
2. Control the amount of food
Many people are not well aware of the need to control the amount of food they eat.
In fact, the reason for this requirement is mainly because the digestive capacity of the stomach and intestines is limited. If you overeat due to excessive hunger or better appetite, it is easy to overeat due to excessive eating at one time and lead to serious damage to gastrointestinal function.
Over time, it is likely to cause gastrointestinal weakness and greatly increase the incidence of stomach diseases. Therefore, for the sake of gastrointestinal health, we must pay attention to controlling the amount of food eaten at each meal to about seven points.
3. Stay away from cold food
Frequent intake of foods or drinks that are too low in temperature will form a very strong adverse irritation to the gastric mucosa.
In addition to easy to cause abdominal pain, diarrhea, a long time, is likely to lead to spleen and stomach damage, moisture aggravation, which on the body maintenance of the adverse impact is very serious.
In addition, for frequent gastrointestinal discomfort such as loss of appetite, nausea and vomiting, bloating, diarrhea, etc., we must also pay more attention to it, and seek medical examination in time to determine whether it is caused by gastrointestinal lesions.
All in all, the legendary stomach food, at most, only reduces the burden on the stomach, and no effective ingredient can protect the stomach and intestines.
After all, people are all long flesh, no matter what they eat, no matter how fine they cultivate, they can't let their stomachs become an iron wall of copper, and they can't invade...
Therefore, if you want to nourish your stomach, the most important thing is to ---- not do it!
While doing the above things, don't forget to wash your hands before and after meals to reduce Helicobacter pylori infection.
