Erosive gastritis is mainly manifested as various types of upper abdominal pain, abdominal distension, and even a small amount of gastric bleeding. Under normal circumstances, as long as you actively cooperate with the treatment, you can recover, but if you don't pay attention to it, it is very likely to develop into chronic atrophic gastritis with serious consequences. The treatment of erosive gastritis is mainly diet conditioning.
What food is good for erosive gastritis?
Patients with erosive gastritis should pay attention to balanced nutrition: the food should be soft, nutritious and easy to digest, and eat more foods containing plant protein and vitamins. In diet, we should give priority to soft and digestible foods with rich nutrition and little residue, such as noodles, steamed bread, porridge, yam and sweet potato.
You can eat boiled millet, rice porridge, goat's milk, yogurt, white cheese and caffeinated milk. If the symptoms are serious, eat some soft food, such as rice soup, avocado, banana, potato, pumpkin and so on. Crush all the vegetables before cooking. Occasionally eat steamed vegetables, such as carrots, carrots, broccoli and so on. People with iron deficiency anemia can choose eggs, lean meat and pig liver.
Usually, the diet is as light as possible, and eating less greasy and high-fat foods, such as fat, cream and fried foods, will delay the emptying of the stomach and easily increase the feeling of fullness in the abdomen. Irritating foods, such as pepper, onion, curry, pepper, mustard powder and strong coffee, should be reduced, which is not conducive to the recovery of gastric mucosal inflammation and is not suitable for eating.
Dietary taboo of erosive gastritis;
1, avoid eating rough and irritating food. Avoid foods that are too hard, too spicy, too salty, too hot, too rough and irritating. Such as fried food, pickled food, pepper, garlic and so on. Regardless of whether citrus juice, tomato products, coffee, alcohol and all foods that directly stimulate the esophagus will cause stomach acid, you'd better avoid eating them.
2. Avoid high-fat foods. High-fat foods, alcohol, sugar and chocolate can relax the sphincter and cause reflux, so if you have heartburn symptoms, you should avoid these foods.
3, a small amount of meals. Eat more than three meals a day, such as six small meals, as long as you feel comfortable. Avoid eating before going to bed, and the diet should not be too full, so as to avoid excessive expansion of gastric antrum and increase gastric acid secretion.
4. Increase the intake of cellulose. Eat foods containing fiber. Fiber is considered as an anticancer component, and eating a high-fiber diet can also reduce the chance of duodenal ulcer. Fiber is considered to promote mucin secretion, and mucin can protect duodenal mucosa.
5. control drinking water. People with gastric acid deficiency should avoid diluting gastric juice. It is advisable to add vinegar, lemon juice and acid seasoning crystals to the diet, and eat less food that is not easy to digest and flatulence. Try to drink less water before and after meals.
6. Drink less milk. For a long time, milk has been considered as an excellent gastric acid buffer, but although it can temporarily buffer gastric acid, later, calcium and protein in milk will stimulate more gastric acid secretion, making the stomach more uncomfortable; Almond milk is a good substitute.
Need to remind patients that in daily life, try to avoid taking drugs or diets that stimulate and damage gastric mucosa, such as foods that are too sour and spicy, and reduce salt intake. Eat three meals regularly, chew slowly. Quitting smoking and drinking, avoiding staying up late at the same time and developing good living habits are of great significance to the rehabilitation of stomach diseases.
