The intestines and stomach belong to the digestive system, and the organs and tissues of the digestive system have a common characteristic, which is that they like warmth and moisture but hate dryness and cold. In other words, warm food with a peaceful temperament can nourish the stomach, but overly irritating cold food may hurt the stomach if eaten too much, especially in winter.

Therefore, for friends with poor gastrointestinal problems, it is one of the principles of daily diet to eat more warm and mild foods and less irritating cold foods. But as far as fruits are concerned, their food habits are different, some are warm and some are cold, so many friends with bad gastrointestinal problems don’t know how to choose.

If you have a bad gastrointestinal problem, which fruits should you choose?

①Peach. Peaches are warm in nature, which is of course very suitable for the stomach and intestines that like warmth and heat. Not only that, peaches are rich in vitamins and fiber. Eating them appropriately can increase people's feeling of fullness, promote gastrointestinal motility, and reduce the burden on the digestive system.

Therefore, if you often feel bloated and have indigestion, it is very good to eat some peaches.

Doctors remind: It should be noted that most unripe peaches have an acidic taste. Those who are cold and have bad gastrointestinal issues should be careful when consuming it to avoid irritating the gastrointestinal tract, which may in turn have a negative impact on the health of the digestive system and cause a series of disease symptoms such as acid reflux and vomiting.

②Pineapple. Pineapple contains an enzyme called "pineapple prionase", which can break down proteins and food residues in daily diet, improve gastrointestinal space, promote blood circulation, and have a certain effect on reducing the risk of gastrointestinal inflammatory diseases. People with poor gastrointestinal function have a higher probability of inflammation and edema due to reduced digestive function. Therefore, it is a very good choice to eat more pineapples to improve gastrointestinal blood circulation, reduce the accumulation of inflammatory factors, and promote the elimination of toxins.

Doctors remind: Due to the characteristics of pineapple prionase, all substances containing protein will be decomposed, and human lips and epithelial tissues are no exception. If you consume too much, it will increase the risk of cheilitis and oral ulcers. risk. It is better to eat about half a day. In addition, it is best not to eat pineapple on an empty stomach to prevent a large amount of enzymes from directly contacting the stomach and causing damage to the gastric mucosa.

③Apple. As one of the most common fruits, apples are warm in nature and sweet in taste. They are also the first choice for those who nourish the stomach. Apples are rich in pectin. Pectin will fully absorb water in the intestines and stomach, thereby increasing the water content of feces, which can effectively improve constipation and other problems caused by gastrointestinal problems.

In addition, the content of polyphenols natural oxides in apples is also considerable. If you eat apples appropriately, polyphenols can help resist free radical oxidation, fight inflammation and sterilization, and then help regulate the gastrointestinal tract. The function of the flora is also very effective in improving digestion. If you cook apples and eat them with warm and blood-tonifying foods such as millet, wolfberry, and red dates, the effect of regulating the stomach will be better.

Doctors remind: There are no obvious taboos for eating apples. They are suitable for all ages. Eating them in moderation can have a good stomach-nourishing effect. However, some younger children still have trouble eating apples. Be careful not to accidentally eat apple cores. The hydrocyanic acid in apple cores contains a certain degree of toxicity. Inadvertent ingestion can easily lead to dizziness, headaches and even coma. Children should be careful when eating apples.

There are also bananas, papayas, dragon fruits, etc., which I won’t go into details here. In short, most of the fruits that are beneficial to the stomach have the same properties as being lukewarm, laxative, and promoting gastrointestinal motility. Characteristics, friends in need are also invited to select it to more effectively regulate gastrointestinal health.

But having said that, since there are fruits that are good for the gastrointestinal health, naturally there are also types of fruits that are not so suitable for gastrointestinal health. Friends with bad gastrointestinal problems should try to eat as little of these fruits as possible.

Here are some fruits that are “unfriendly” to gastrointestinal health

Persimmons – can easily cause gastric bloating and form stones

The tannins in persimmons The content of acid and tannin is very high. Although the tannic acid content will gradually decrease as persimmons mature, friends with bad gastrointestinal problems should still eat less.

This is because tannins and tannins have very strong astringent properties. If they are taken in too much, proteins, trace elements and other substances in the intestines and stomach will be concentrated and condensed into indigestible precipitates. , which further increases the digestive burden on the intestines and stomach.

What’s more, eating too many persimmons may lead to the formation of stones. Even those with no gastrointestinal problems should not eat persimmons without restraint. Generally, 1 to 2 persimmons a day is sufficient. .

Kiwi fruit - cold and sour in nature, which can cause irritation to the gastrointestinal tract

Although kiwi fruit is rich in vitamin C and fiber, it has a very high nutritional value for the body as a whole.

However, excessive amounts of fruit acid and vitamin C in kiwi fruit will lead to increased gastric acid secretion, which can easily cause a series of symptoms such as abdominal pain, acid reflux, heartburn, and vomiting.

In addition, kiwi itself is cold in nature and does not conform to the "warm and moist" characteristics of the gastrointestinal tract. Friends with poor gastrointestinal problems are still advised to eat less.

Dongzao - excessive sugar content increases the risk of inflammation

Dongzao is known as the "King of Vitamin C" among fruits, and its vitamin C content is even higher than that of lemons, oranges, etc. There are even more fruits, and it is indeed one of the most nutritious fruits.

However, winter dates have a disadvantage, that is, they contain too much fructose. Excessive sugar intake will also irritate the gastric mucosa and increase the risk of gastrointestinal inflammation. Therefore, friends with poor gastrointestinal problems It is better to eat less. In addition, for example, some friends who have high blood sugar or have liver function problems are advised to eat less fruits with excessive fructose levels to avoid unnecessary burden on their already weak bodies and organs.

Fruit itself is a healthy food. The key is to see how we choose them. Under appropriate circumstances, choosing the type that is most suitable for us can produce the greatest benefit to our health.
