1, esophagitis patients dietary principles
a, reduce the intake of fat
because dietary fat can significantly stimulate the secretion of cholecystokinin, cause the lower esophageal sphincter tension is reduced, and promote gastroesophageal reflux.

Avoid alcohol and quit smoking: because tobacco contains nicotine, can reduce the pressure of the lower esophageal sphincter, so that it is in a state of relaxation, aggravating the reflux; the main ingredient of alcohol is ethanol, not only stimulate the secretion of gastric acid, but also make the lower esophageal sphincter relaxation, which is one of the reasons that cause gastroesophageal reflux. It is one of the causes of gastroesophageal reflux.
2. Eating small, frequent meals and a low-fat diet can reduce the frequency of reflux symptoms after eating. On the contrary, a high-fat diet promotes the release of cholecystokinin from the small intestinal mucosa, which can easily lead to reflux of gastrointestinal contents.
