Excessive stomach acid is one of the common symptoms of gastrointestinal diseases, moderate stomach acid can help digestion, but too much stomach acid secretion, pantothenic acid, heartburn, heartburn and other symptoms. At this time, stay away from the following foods, otherwise it will increase discomfort.
Sweets.
Carbohydrates have no obvious effect on the secretion of gastric acid, but monosaccharides and disaccharides can accelerate the secretion of gastric acid, so when the stomach acid is more, it is necessary to eat less sweets such as chocolate and cake.
Sour-tasting fruits and vegetables.
Although rich in nutrients, for people with excessive stomach acid, tangerines, lemons, tomatoes, dates and other sour-tasting fruits and vegetables will stimulate the stomach to produce more stomach acid, aggravating heartburn.
Glutinous rice products.
Glutinous rice products such as zongzi, Yuanxiao, tangyuan are easy to stay in the stomach to stimulate the secretion of stomach acid because of their viscosity.
Strong tea.
Coffee and tea both contain caffeine. Phosphodiesterase in the human body can inhibit the secretion of gastric acid by gastric parietal cells, and caffeine reduces the activity of this enzyme, so that gastric parietal cells secrete more acid. Especially when drinking strong tea on an empty stomach, it will stimulate the gastric mucosa more and easily lead to gastric ulcers.
Fry food.
High fat fried food can lead to increased cholecystokinin secretion, causing bile reflux, aggravating the corrosion of gastric mucosa, which is not conducive to mucosal repair. In addition, fried food takes longer to empty the stomach, which increases the secretion of stomach acid.
Spicy and pungent food.
Eating too much spicy food at one time causes abdominal discomfort and burning sensation, which is caused by spicy food stimulating gastric mucosa, causing excessive secretion of gastric acid leading to local inflammation, spicy and irritating food including onion, onion, ginger, garlic, chili, pepper, curry and so on.
Wine.
Alcohol can make the gastric mucosa secrete excessive gastric acid, after drinking a lot of alcohol, the gastric mucosal epithelial cells are damaged, induce mucosal edema, bleeding, and even ulcer, erosion, and then serious will appear stomach bleeding.
In addition to staying away from the above foods, people with a lot of stomach acid should pay attention to the following points on the diet:
First, time and quantity, eat regularly, avoid excessive hunger, and be calm and attentive when eating;
Second, when chewing food, the mouth will secrete a lot of saliva, in which bicarbonate and mucus have an antacid effect, help neutralize stomach acid, and digestive enzymes have a protective effect on the gastric mucosa;
Third, try not to eat three hours before going to bed, and do not lie down immediately after eating to avoid acid reflux;
Fourth, eat less salt, salt osmotic pressure is high, great damage to the gastric mucosa, easy to lead to gastritis or gastric ulcer; Fifth, if there is nausea, acid vomiting phenomenon, you can eat one or two soda crackers emergency, can quickly neutralize stomach acid, relieve discomfort.
