"Aunt Li, you do have some problems with your gastrointestinal function, and you need to pay attention to your diet." Doctor Zhang Hua said to Aunt Li, a retired factory worker in her 60s, while looking at the physical examination report.
Aunt Li said with a sad face: "Doctor Zhang, I have been having a bad stomach in the past few years, and I am not comfortable eating anything. ”
Doctor Zhang smiled and waved his hand: "Aunt Li, if you have a bad stomach, you may not only be able to eat porridge.
In fact, as long as you pay attention to some dietary habits, your gastrointestinal problems can be alleviated. Aunt Li looked at Dr. Zhang suspiciously: "Then what should I do?" ”
Dr. Zhang began to explain in detail: "First of all, people with bad stomach should pay attention to their dietary rules. Many people think that if you have a bad stomach, you should eat small and frequent meals, but in fact, it is more important to eat regularly and quantitatively.
A regular diet can help the stomach and intestines establish a normal digestive rhythm and avoid the burden on the stomach caused by irregular diet. ”
He continued: "Secondly, you should avoid foods that are too stimulating, such as chili, coffee, strong tea, etc.
Choosing mild foods, such as cooked vegetables, soft meats, and moderate amounts of fruit, can help reduce the burden on your stomach. ”
Aunt Li nodded, but was still a little worried: "Then won't I be able to eat spicy food in the future?" I'm from Hunan, so I can't do without chili peppers. Dr. Zhang smiled: "Eating chili peppers in moderation is not a big problem, but the amount should be controlled."
If you really like it, you can choose some milder pepper varieties to avoid overstimulation.
In addition, some spices can be used instead of chili peppers, such as ginger and pepper, which can not only increase the flavor of the food, but also not overstimulate the stomach. Aunt Li breathed a sigh of relief: "That's okay, can I continue my habit of drinking porridge?" ”
Dr. Zhang shook his head: "Drinking porridge every day is not good for the stomach, although porridge is easy to digest, it is nutritious, and eating it regularly will lead to malnutrition."
People with a bad stomach need to eat a balanced diet with more protein, vitamins and minerals to ensure the nutrients that the body needs. ”
He goes on to explain: "The last and most crucial point is to maintain good habits. Getting enough sleep, exercising and feeling good all play an important role in gastrointestinal health.
Therefore, learn to relax and maintain a positive and optimistic attitude in order to truly solve gastrointestinal problems. ”
Aunt Li thoughtfully: "In this way, I am usually a little anxious, always thinking about the children's affairs, and I can't sleep well at night." ”
Dr. Zhang nodded: "Yes, many middle-aged and elderly people will neglect their health because they are worried about family affairs.
You need to learn to relax and engage in lighter activities such as walking, doing yoga or chatting with friends, which can help you reduce stress and improve your gastrointestinal problems. ”
Dr Cheung added, "According to the latest research, maintaining a good lifestyle can significantly reduce the recurrence rate of gastrointestinal diseases.
For example, in a study of 1,000 middle-aged and older adults, those who exercised regularly, got enough sleep and ate regularly had a 30% lower rate of recurrence of gastrointestinal disorders.
This fully illustrates the importance of lifestyle habits for gastrointestinal health. After listening to the doctor's explanation, Aunt Li's heart suddenly brightened:
"Doctor Zhang, hearing what you said, I won't drink porridge every day in the future, but eat some nutritionally balanced foods and pay more attention to my living habits."
Dr. Zhang smiled and nodded: "Yes, Aunt Li, you have to believe that health is comprehensive, and only by starting from all aspects can you truly solve gastrointestinal problems." ”
Since maintaining good lifestyle habits is so good for the stomach, should young people also pay attention to these problems to prevent future gastrointestinal diseases?
Although young people are in good health and have strong resistance, bad lifestyle habits will also lay hidden dangers for their health in the future. For example, staying up late for a long time, eating irregularly, excessive drinking, etc., may lead to the early appearance of gastrointestinal problems.
Prevention is better than cure, and young people can effectively prevent gastrointestinal diseases and improve their overall health by maintaining healthy lifestyle habits from now on.
Hope it helps, thank you!
