The truth is the so-called "rice soaked in water". In fact, we can regard it as uncooked porridge or rice with water. People think that it hurts the stomach from two aspects: first, because rice is added with water, people easily swallow it quickly without chewing it carefully; Second, the added boiling water dilutes the gastric acid, making the rice grains difficult to digest. In fact, these two reasons are not very sufficient. For most people, there is still a chewing process when eating "rice soaked in water", and few people "drink" the whole rice grain like porridge; The boiled water added to soak rice is just equivalent to drinking an extra half bowl of soup when eating, so as not to dilute the stomach acid too much.
Therefore, eating "rice soaked in water" is not a good habit, at least it doesn't taste good; But for people with normal digestive system, as long as you chew slowly, there is no problem of hurting your stomach.
In fact, soup soaked in rice is not the "culprit" of human gastrointestinal damage. The reason why people have indigestion after eating soup soaked in rice is related to the speed of people eating. If people can fully chew food when eating soup and soaking rice, they can greatly reduce the phenomenon of indigestion. Therefore, eating soup and soaking rice hurts your stomach, not because of what you eat, but because of how you eat.
In addition, scientists believe that it is a kind of digestive tract disease that is difficult to find the cause. Food can be said to be related to stomach diseases, or it can be said to be irrelevant. That is to say, no ordinary food can be considered as the "inducement" to cause gastrointestinal problems. For example, if you have abdominal pain after eating a piece of ordinary braised pork, you can't say with complete certainty that this piece of ordinary braised pork is the cause of indigestion, but you should think about it. Why do other people have nothing to eat the same braised pork, but you have problems after eating it? Therefore, everyone's physical quality is different, and the physical reaction caused by food is also different.
Who should not eat more "soup and rice"?
1, developing children
Children's gastrointestinal function is not yet mature. If they eat soaked rice regularly, it will make children develop the bad habit of swallowing dates, which is also not conducive to the development of teeth. Moreover, if food is swallowed without chewing, it will also affect the gastrointestinal function.
2, gout patients
Braised rice in broth is delicious and very popular, but if the content of purine in these soups is high, it is not conducive to the recovery of gout patients. It is suggested that gout patients should eat less soup and soaked rice.
A balanced diet is an important condition to ensure the health of human stomach. Although soup and rice soaked in soup are not necessarily related to stomach diseases, it is impossible to eat them for a long time, otherwise malnutrition will easily occur. If you want to protect your stomach, you should ensure a balanced nutrition intake and a regular diet.
