Chronic gastritis is the most common gastric disease, referring to various chronic inflammatory lesions of the gastric mucosa caused by different etiologies, and its incidence ranks first among various gastric diseases. Most people have more or less gastritis, some small habits can make the stomach suffer from different degrees of damage. What are the bad habits that hurt the stomach 1, irregular diet Some people sleep late and wake up late, miss breakfast; some people simply eat lunch in order to work; some people do not eat dinner in order to lose weight. However, it is this unintentional hungry meal, full meal, will slowly erode the health of the stomach. 2, the food is not clean If you eat unclean or not fresh food, it is easy to cause acute gastritis, stomach pain, bloating and vomiting and other symptoms. 3, wolf swallowing After entering the stomach, food needs to be ground and digested, turning the food into celiac before reaching the intestines. If chewing is not fine, rough food will directly wear the gastric mucosa, resulting in stomach muscle fatigue and decreased gastric power. The good habit of chewing and swallowing can increase the secretion of saliva, which helps the food to be better digested and absorbed. 4, excessive drinking Alcohol not only damages the liver, causes skin dehydration and kills brain cells, but also directly damages the gastric mucosa, causing inflammation, erosion, ulcers or bleeding. Alcohol consumption also slows down the healing process of gastric ulcers. Therefore, especially patients with stomach problems are prohibited to drink alcohol. 5, smoking Tobacco will not only harm the human body’s whistling system, but also damage to the stomach. Nicotine in tobacco can harm the gastric mucosa, promote vasoconstriction, reduce the blood supply to the gastric mucosa, and inhibit the synthesis of prostaglandins. Prostaglandin is a protective factor that has a repairing effect on the gastric mucosa, interfering with the emptying function of the stomach and easily causing bile to reflux into the stomach, and bile salts and other components in the bile have a strong damaging effect on the gastric mucosa. 6, abuse of drugs Many drugs can damage the gastric mucosa, unless it is necessary to use such drugs, or long-term abuse of such drugs, the stomach will be greatly damaged. Choose the right food for your stomach 1, regular and quantitative research found that the secretion of gastric acid and the number of meals related to the total daily secretion of gastric acid after eating more meals than three meals a day. For those who have less stomach acid can eat more meals, which is beneficial to increase stomach acid secretion; for those who have high stomach acid should eat three meals a day at regular intervals, in line with work, study and life habits. Regardless of the state of stomach acid, it is not advisable to overeat and avoid being too hungry and too full. Not eating breakfast, fasting for too long are bad eating habits. 2, chew and swallow slowly No matter what kind of gastric disease, wolf swallowing way of eating will stimulate or damage the esophagus and gastric mucosa. Chewing and swallowing is beneficial to the protection of the gastric mucosa, digestion and absorption of food. 3, sour food is good for gastric acid secretion Those who have little stomach acid can drink lemon juice, apple juice, etc. to open the taste before meal, and can dip the food into vinegar to increase the taste and help eating during meal, and can eat hawthorn tablets after meal to help digestion, and can drink yogurt between meals. Those who have a lot of stomach acid should not eat too much acidic food, should be noodles, buns and bread as the main food, fasting can also eat some soda crackers. 4, drink milk in moderation In the past, it was thought that liquid milk could treat ulcer disease by neutralizing stomach acid and protecting the gastric mucosa, but it was later found that the secretion of liquid milk stimulated stomach acid was greater than its neutralizing effect. People with more stomach acid should not drink more milk, 300 ml per day is appropriate, intake of appropriate amount of protein, such as: eat fish, poultry, eggs, lean meat, etc., need 120 ~ 200 grams per day. Those with less stomach acid and relatively poor physical condition, moderate amount of high-protein food is appropriate, but due to less stomach acid, digestive malabsorption will aggravate abdominal distension, it is advisable to take additional digestive drugs after meals. 5, vegetables and fruits should be eaten every day It is recommended to consume 300~500g of vegetables and 200~350g of fresh fruits every day, the vitamin C in fruits and vegetables can effectively stop the formation of nitrosamines. For those who have more stomach acid, it is advisable to use fruits with weaker acidity, and in case of active gastric disease, it is advisable to choose fresh vegetables. Stomach acid less people, it is appropriate to eat the right amount of acidic fruit, cold weather season can be made into warm fruit soup, should not eat raw vegetables. 6, drink water at the right time Stomach acid, whether before or after the meal are moderate amount of water and not too much restriction; while the stomach acid less people, especially those with gastric prolapse, should not drink too much water before the meal, so as not to dilute the only stomach acid, meal should not drink more water, so as not to affect the amount of food caused by early satiety.
