The stomach is very fragile and needs to work non-stop every day to help digest and absorb food, but some bad eating habits will bring certain damage to the stomach and increase the chance of stomach cancer.

What are some bad eating habits that can hurt the stomach?

1. Inattentiveness when eating

In order to be in a hurry, some people will eat breakfast while walking, and they will read a book or watch TV to eat while eating lunch, which will increase the discomfort in the stomach. When digesting food, there must be sufficient blood supply, and exercising during meals will reduce the blood flow to the gastrointestinal tract, affecting normal digestion and absorption, inducing gastritis, and even causing gastric prolapse. On the other hand, eating while watching can increase blood in the brain and stomach, which can cause indigestion. Wake up early every morning for 20 minutes to eat a nutritious breakfast quietly, focus all your attention on the food during the meal, chew slowly during the meal, and fully enjoy the beauty brought by the food.

2. Eat a lot of acidic fruits on an empty stomach

In the fasting state, the stomach has a high stomach acid content, and you can't eat acidic fruits on an empty stomach, which will increase the acidic substances in the stomach, and eventually form gastric acid, and eating fruits on an empty stomach will also cause stomach distension and induce digestive system-related diseases. For patients with hyperacidity, duodenum and gastric ulcers, they should not eat fruits with too high acidity such as bayberry, lemon and hawthorn, which will promote the secretion of gastric acid, stimulate the gastric mucosa, and prolong the healing of the ulcer surface.

3. Soak rice in soup

Many people like to use soup to eat rice when eating rice, which will make the food directly enter the stomach before it is fully chewed in the mouth, which increases the burden on the stomach, and is not conducive to the digestion of food, and can not better absorb the nutrients inside. In addition, if you always eat spicy food, it will stimulate the secretion of digestive juices, make the gastrointestinal mucosa in a state of congestion and edema, and accelerate the peristalsis of the gastrointestinal tract. You can't eat soup and rice for a long time, you must chew slowly to reduce the burden on the gastrointestinal tract. Drinking soup or porridge before meals can not only moisturize the esophagus and mouth, but also stimulate the stomach and mouth to produce gastric juice and saliva.
