Solutions for indigestion after eating Yuanxiao:
1. Eating hawthorn
Chinese medicine believes that hawthorn can eliminate food accumulation, and modern pharmacology also finds that hawthorn is rich in vitamin C, which can increase the secretion of digestive enzymes in the stomach and promote digestion. It is suggested that if you eat too much glutinous rice balls, you can eat some hawthorn to help digestion, and you can eat them with hawthorn while eating glutinous rice balls or Yuanxiao.
2. Reduce the fat intake
After eating glutinous rice balls or Yuanxiao, it is best to reduce the total fat in a day. Braised pork, pastry, fried food and other oily things are best eaten another day. Because almost one-third to one-half of a mouthful of glutinous rice balls is oil. Eating three glutinous rice balls is equivalent to eating a plate of cooking oil.
3. Drinking the original soup
It is important to pay attention to not adding sugar to the soup. If you eat salty glutinous rice balls, you can add some shrimp and vegetables to the soup to supplement nutrition, but it is best not to add oil or seasoning, because the filling of glutinous rice balls has a high oil content.
4. Eat more green vegetables
It is difficult to digest after eating dumplings, which is mostly caused by not matching other original foods when eating dumplings. Salted dumplings can be eaten with celery, cabbage, lettuce and radish. These dishes contain a lot of crude fiber. Using a lot of crude fiber in vegetables to supplement the fiber deficiency of dumplings can promote gastrointestinal peristalsis and facilitate gastrointestinal digestion.
If it is sweet glutinous rice balls, it can be eaten together with diced fruit and herb tea, which can slow down the rapid rise of blood sugar to some extent and reduce the stomach discomfort caused by eating glutinous rice balls.
