A friend left a message for Huazi, saying that he was an old stomach disease for many years, and from time to time he had symptoms such as vague pain, stomach distension, nausea, and belching. He went to the doctor, and after taking the medicine, his condition was repeated. The doctor told him to pay attention to the stomach, stomach diseases are well nourished. He did not understand this sentence, is it not necessary to cure stomach diseases, but to rely on maintenance?
Huazi said that stomach disease is "three points, seven points of nourishment", in principle, stomach disease is indeed a good one, but many people do not know the correct way to nourish the stomach.
First, the stomach is an organ with strong regenerative power
We eat every day, and all kinds of food rub against the gastric mucosa, which is very easy to cause mechanical damage to the gastric mucosa and inflammatory reactions. Even if a healthy person goes for a gastroscope, they will basically get a "superficial gastritis" result, which is because of the inflammatory response caused by food wear.
The gastric mucosa needs to have a strong regenerative ability to constantly repair the mucosa and maintain normal physiological functions. In the treatment of stomach diseases, as long as the stomach is carefully nourished and the factors that hurt the stomach are reduced, you can use the regenerative ability of the stomach itself to repair itself. Therefore, stomach diseases are all well nourished.
Second, how to properly nourish the stomach
1, to avoid "emotional hurt stomach": when we have anxiety, melancholy emotions, often "tea and rice do not think"; if angry, it will be "full of gas" and can not eat. This is because stomach function is greatly affected by mood.
Many people's stomach disease is gastric neurosis, which means that because of the influence of bad emotions, it leads to excessive excitement of the sympathetic nervous system, causing the gastric arteries to contract and reduce blood flow, which is prone to stomach diseases.
Therefore, people who are often anxious and stressed, learning to relax their emotions and reduce mental stress is the key to nourishing the stomach. After psychological counseling to relieve psychological pressure, stomach disease will also be cured.
2, to avoid diet hurt the stomach: the daily diet is closely related to stomach diseases. Foods that are too spicy, sweet, sour, salty, raw, cold, hard, etc., should be avoided.
It should be noted that you can't eat porridge, noodles and other softly boiled foods for a long time. Because human organs will be "used in and out", although soft and rotten food is conducive to digestion, but long-term consumption of such food, it will make the normal digestive function of the stomach degenerate, which is not conducive to the recovery of the stomach. Therefore, maintaining a normal diet and ensuring the diversity of food is the correct way to nourish the stomach.
The staple food can choose steamed buns, because after fermentation, the phytic acid in the steamed buns is reduced, which can reduce the irritation to the stomach. Do not drink milk when the stomach is uncomfortable, because milk contains protein, which will stimulate the secretion of stomach acid and pepsin, which may aggravate the damage to the stomach.
3, more movement of the mouth can nourish the stomach: when eating, the food is fully chewed, and the teeth and tongue can be used to replace part of the stomach function. Moreover, the saliva of the human mouth contains amylase, which can also promote the digestion of food.
In traditional medicine on the mainland, there are ways to use saliva to treat stomach diseases. The specific method is to use the tip of the tongue to hold the gums, or to stir in the mouth to promote saliva secretion. When the saliva is enough to swallow directly, 5 times a day, each swallowing 5 bites, can be used to assist in the treatment of stomach diseases, but this method needs to be adhered to for a long time to be effective.
4. Maintain regular exercise: regular exercise can promote gastrointestinal peristalsis and the secretion of digestive juices, increase gastric motility, and improve the digestion and absorption function of the stomach. During exercise, the breathing becomes deeper, and the abdominal muscles and diaphragm will be greatly moved, which will have a "massage" effect on the gastrointestinal tract, improve the blood supply to the stomach, and increase the defense of the gastric mucosa.
Exercise requires the choice of mild aerobic exercise, such as walking, tai chi, jogging, cycling, etc., insisting on exercising for 30 minutes to about 1 hour every day, so that the heart rate reaches "170-age", which can comprehensively improve the function of the digestive system.
Third, it can be used to relieve symptoms
Stomach problems can be cured, but those with severe symptoms also need the help of drugs. Drug treatment of stomach diseases, mainly symptomatic treatment. For example, if there are symptoms such as bloating, nausea, and belching, it can be treated with gastric motility drugs; if there is indigestion and the absorption capacity is reduced, digestive enzyme preparations can be used to promote digestion.
If gastritis occurs, antacids such as proton pump inhibitors (pazoliums) and H2 receptor antagonists (titerins) are needed to inhibit the secretion of gastric acid, which can reduce damage to the gastric mucosa and promote self-repair of the stomach. It should be noted that the medication time should be up to standard, usually it takes 2 months of continuous medication, or even longer, to effectively alleviate or cure stomach diseases.
People who are emotionally unstable can receive psychotherapy, use anti-anxiety, antidepressant drugs, and can also relieve symptoms of stomach discomfort.
To sum up, the stomach is a very regenerative organ, as long as you avoid the factors that hurt it, you can rely on the regenerative ability of the stomach to repair itself. But stomach nourishment is a thing that needs to be adhered to for a long time, and if you give up halfway, it will cause repeated illness. If the symptoms are severe, you can use medication for symptomatic treatment under the guidance of a doctor. If you have any questions about medication, consult your doctor or pharmacist.
