Diet therapy is one of the effective preventive and therapeutic methods for many diseases, and stomach problems are no exception. So the question is, what specific dishes should patients eat when their stomachs are uncomfortable? 1. Pumpkin Pumpkin has a good stomach-nourishing effect. It is rich in carbohydrates and pectin, which can protect the stomach from irritation. The dietary fiber it contains is also very fine and soft, so it is easily digested and absorbed by the human body. Pumpkin porridge, fried pumpkin and steamed pumpkin are all common stomach-nourishing foods on many family tables. People with high blood sugar can choose to eat steamed pumpkin. 2. Carrots Carrots are rich in carotene, which is fat-soluble. They are best stewed with meat. This not only warms the stomach, but also absorbs the aroma of the stewed meat, making it taste better. It can not only resist gastric ulcers, protect and repair gastric mucosal tissue, but also keep gastric cells active and reduce the chance of lesions. This stomach-warming vegetable is highly recommended for people suffering from gastric ulcer and duodenal ulcer. It can be squeezed into juice for drinking, or made into vegetable salad, etc. 3. Sweet potatoes Sweet potatoes themselves have the effect of nourishing the stomach. The dietary fiber they are rich in can help digestion and increase appetite. However, sweet potatoes can promote the secretion of gastric acid, so people who usually have excessive stomach acid and often feel acid reflux and heartburn should not eat them often. Eating sweet potato porridge or steamed sweet potatoes are good choices. 4. Cabbage Cabbage is known as a natural "stomach dish". It has the effect of promoting salivation, quenching thirst and aiding digestion. It can also promote the secretion of gastric juice and protect the gastric mucosa. Cabbage also contains a large amount of vitamin C, which has the effect of relieving pain and promoting ulcer healing. If you want to nourish your stomach, cabbage is absolutely indispensable. Stewing cabbage with coix seed, tangerine peel, and honey can also treat symptoms such as epigastric pain, upper abdominal distension, and gastric and duodenal ulcers. People with bad stomachs, especially those suffering from gastric ulcers and duodenal ulcers, can drink cabbage juice, one cup a day. They can also add an appropriate amount of honey, which is very helpful in promoting ulcer healing. 5. Tomato Tomatoes contain a large amount of citric acid and malic acid, which are beneficial to the metabolism of the whole body. They can promote the production of gastric juice, enhance the digestion of greasy food, and relieve stomach discomfort. 6. Spinach Traditional Chinese medicine points out that spinach has the effects of moisturizing the liver, benefiting the stomach and intestines, and relieving constipation. Eating more spinach in moderation in daily life can promote the secretion of the stomach and pancreas, thereby promoting digestion. Spinach is also rich in fiber, which can help intestinal peristalsis and facilitate defecation. |
