Does porridge really nourish the stomach? How does stomachache cause sihai.com: porridge nourishes the stomach is the advice handed down by the elderly. Generally, if you have a stomach disease or are troubled by a stomach disease, you will drink porridge to solve it. Is porridge really good for your stomach? How is stomachache caused?
'have you had a bad stomach these days? Then have some porridge. It's good for your stomach. " Does that make sense? There is a certain reason. However, everything has a degree. If it exceeds the degree, it will go to the opposite.
Wang Lai, director of Hangzhou Jiangnan Institute of Gastrobiliary diseases, said that in clinical practice, he often encountered such patients. When his stomach was uncomfortable, he advocated 'diet therapy' and drank porridge every day in order to nourish his stomach. As a result, many people were hurt. He not only failed to nourish his stomach, but aggravated his condition.
Eating porridge to nourish the stomach aggravates uncle Lin's stomach disease
Uncle Lin of Hangzhou is one of them. Uncle Lin is an old stomach trouble. I heard that porridge is easy to digest and can nourish the stomach, so I often drink porridge. At first, I really felt a lot more comfortable in my stomach, but later, every time I drank porridge, I felt bloated and acid, hot and dull pain in my heart, I felt weak, and I lost a lot of weight.
Uncle Lin's stomach disease began with superficial gastritis and gradually turned into atrophic gastritis. After seven or eight years, it turned into severe gastric mucosal atrophy and severe intestinal metaplasia, which became more and more serious. The doctor said that his stomach disease was like that the car tire had driven to the edge of the road. If he went outside a little, he might be killed. He was worried about this every day and couldn't sleep at night. He was worried that one day his stomach disease would become worse.
Ginseng is also poisonous if eaten improperly
Wang Lai, a forensic physician, said that porridge can replenish Yin fluid, produce gastric fluid, strengthen the spleen and stomach, and replenish deficiency damage. It has a good conditioning and nourishing effect on those who are weak, indigestion and difficult to eat. Therefore, Wang Mengying, a famous doctor in the Qing Dynasty, praised porridge as "the first tonic thing in the world".
But the ancients said: 'if you eat improperly, ginseng is also poisonous.' Porridge is semi liquid and is not easy to stagnate in the body. People who only drink porridge are often easy to starve quickly. If digestive juice such as gastric acid is not neutralized by food, it will produce adverse stimulation to fasting gastrointestinal mucosa. It is easy to eat too fast when hungry, and it is easy to damage the esophagus and gastric mucosa, resulting in further lesions. In addition, due to the large amount of water in porridge, the digestive juice secreted by oral cavity and gastrointestinal tract will be diluted, resulting in the weakening of digestive function and further increasing the burden on the stomach. If the stomach does not get exercise for a long time, it will produce inertia, resulting in the weakening of gastric mucosal barrier function and damaging the gastric wall. If you don't drink porridge for a long time, you will lose weight and fatigue because you can't reach the nutrition your body needs. Therefore, many patients with stomach diseases are aggravated or even malignant due to improper recuperation.
Will atrophic gastritis become malignant
Wang Lai, a forensic physician, said that eating salty food for a long time, great pressure, mental depression, bad mood and family history are all predisposing factors for gastric cancer. In contrast, the proportion from superficial gastritis to atrophic gastritis and then to gastric cancer is not much.
To deal with stomach diseases, the inspection instruments of Western medicine are very advanced. Gastroscope and biopsy are done. The area of gastric ulcer is small, there are not many lesions, and the nature is serious or not serious. It is clear. According to traditional Chinese medicine, whether a person's stomach disease is serious or not depends on whether you have severe abdominal distention, epigastric pain, fatigue, weight loss, poor appetite and blood deficiency. If the symptoms are obvious, it means that your stomach disease is very serious. Severe atrophy and severe intestinal metaplasia are likely to become tumors, but there is no way.
Prevention of malignant transformation of atrophic gastritis
Reasonable treatment and conditioning is very important
Wang Lai said that the stomach is located in the middle of our body. Once it becomes cancerous, the degree of malignancy is very high, because it will metastasize everywhere. Once metastasis, surgery can not be done, chemotherapy can not work, so advanced gastric cancer is very troublesome.
However, from superficial gastritis to atrophic gastritis to cancer, it takes a very long process, and patients have time to prevent it. " I've seen gastrocholia for more than 40 years. Countless patients with gastrocholia have been treated. There have been many serious patients like Uncle Lin. As long as such patients take good medicine and receive regular treatment, they will not change from atrophic gastritis to gastric cancer. Traditional Chinese medicine can reverse this problem. " Wang Lai said to the forensic physician.
Dr. Wang Laifa believes that chronic atrophic gastritis belongs to the category of epigastric pain in traditional Chinese medicine. The key to treatment is to restore spleen and stomach function, repair gastric ulcer, reverse atrophy and prevent further aggravation of the disease. Oral and external application of traditional Chinese medicine has great advantages in activating the absorption and repair function of spleen and stomach, but we should distinguish the root cause of the disease and treat it as a whole; We should develop correct eating and living habits (such as eating softer and chewing slowly), and do not eat cold and irritating things.
