Many people do not have time to eat well under the increasing work pressure, so more and more people are suffering from diseases such as erosive chronic gastritis. The intestines and stomach are very delicate, so people with poor gastrointestinal problems must pay special attention to their diet in daily life, especially not eating foods that are harmful to the intestines. But many people don’t know much about this type of food.

What foods are good for erosive gastritis?

Patients with erosive gastritis should pay attention to balanced nutrition: they should choose nutritious, easy-to-digest soft foods, and eat more foods containing plant protein and vitamins. The diet should be based on foods that are warm, soft, easy to digest, rich in nutrients and have low residue, such as noodles, steamed buns, porridge, yams, sweet potatoes, etc.

You can eat cooked millet seeds, rice porridge, goat's milk, yogurt, white cheese, and kefir. If symptoms are severe, eat soft foods such as rice soup, avocados, bananas, potatoes, and pumpkins. Chop all the vegetables and cook. Occasionally, eat steamed vegetables such as carrots, carrots and broccoli.

Try to keep your daily diet as light as possible and avoid greasy and high-fat foods, such as fatty meats, butter, and fried foods, which can delay gastric emptying and easily increase the feeling of fullness in the abdomen. Exciting foods such as chili pepper, mustard powder, strong coffee, etc. are not conducive to the recovery of gastric mucosal inflammation and should not be eaten.

Dietary taboos for erosive gastritis

1. Avoid eating rough and irritating foods. Avoid foods that are too hard, too spicy, too salty, too hot, too rough and too irritating. Such as fried foods, pickled foods, peppers, garlic, etc. Regardless of whether citrus juices, tomato products, coffee, alcohol, and all foods that directly irritate the esophagus cause stomach acid, you'd better avoid them.

Patients with erosive gastritis can also appropriately increase their fiber intake, because fiber has a certain anti-cancer effect, and appropriate supplementation of some fiber can help prevent the occurrence of some gastrointestinal cancers. Moreover, fiber also has a certain effect in promoting mucus secretion, so it can help protect the intestines.
