A, the choice of food
1. Abstain from acidic foods.
Fruits with high acidity, such as: pineapple, willow, orange, etc., are best ingested after meals and will not be too stimulating to patients with ulcers, so it is not necessary to prohibit their consumption.
2. Abstain from stimulating foods.
Coffee, wine, gravy, chili, mustard, pepper, etc., which will stimulate the secretion of gastric juice or make the gastric mucosa damaged food, should be avoided. Each person’s reaction to food is specific, so the intake of food should be adjusted appropriately according to individual differences, without complete abstinence from food.
3. Avoid gas-producing foods.
Some foods are easy to produce gas and make patients feel full, so they should be avoided; however, whether the food will produce gas and cause discomfort varies from person to person and can be determined by personal experience.
4. Special foods.
Fried rice, grilled meat and other foods that are too hard, glutinous rice products such as rice cakes and dumplings, various desserts, cakes, fried foods and iced foods often cause discomfort to patients and should be chosen with care.
Second, meal precautions

Meals should be regular and quantitative meals to chew and swallow slowly, and the mood should be relaxed, take a short break after the meal and then start working.
2, a small number of meals.

Change bad sleeping posture: Some people like to sleep with both upper arms up or under the head, which can cause the diaphragm to be raised and the pressure in the stomach to increase, making gastric juice reflux up.
