Miss Chen works in a trading company, and her daily task is not only to face the computer and make various financial statements, but also to search for stores at the grassroots level.Busy weekdays, you can always see people like Miss Chen patrolling the stores in the mall. Sometimes when restocking goods, I am so busy that I don't have time to eat. After a busy day, I vaguely felt hungry and remembered not having eaten. After work in the evening, I made plans with a few friends to relieve stress by going to a food stall and drinking at a nightclub together. Over time, it was discovered that the "main meal" of the day was actually nighttime snack time. Either extremely hungry or accidentally overeating, even at the age of an older young woman, she cannot control her mouth. The final result was not only a loss of body shape and excessive weight loss, but also a "hanging" of the stomach.

The Six Deadly Sins of Bad Stomach

1. Mental Stress

When a person is nervous, troubled, or angry, their negative emotions can spread to the limbic system through the cerebral cortex, affecting the autonomic nervous system and directly leading to gastrointestinal dysfunction. Excessive secretion of gastric acid and pepsin can cause constriction of gastric blood vessels, pyloric spasm, emptying disorders, damage to the protective layer of the gastric mucosa, self digestion, and ulcer formation. Nowadays, more and more office workers are facing busy work and unlimited pressure, forcing them to concentrate highly every day. Excessive mental tension not only damages the brain, but also affects the stomach. Therefore, it is very necessary to moderately relax oneself and maintain a calm and soothing mood.2. Excessive alcohol consumption

Excessive alcohol consumption can directly damage the gastric mucosa, and may also cause cirrhosis and chronic pancreatitis, which in turn worsen gastric damage. Alcohol abuse harms the stomach, even children know this truth. However, office workers who are busy in the workplace still ignore their health and unbearable stomachs when faced with unavoidable social engagements. Work is precious, and health cannot be abandoned!

3. Unclean diet

can easily lead to bacterial infections, such as lingering at roadside stalls and taking them out of the refrigerator to eat in a hurry. Helicobacter pylori infection is one of the important causes of gastric and duodenal ulcers, with a detection rate of 70-90% in ulcer patients. Moreover, patients with gastric ulcers can transmit bacteria through utensils, dental appliances, and kissing. Therefore, keep your mouth shut and don't let illness enter through your mouth.

4. wolfing down

Eating lunch in the cubicle at noon, usually while looking at the computer, wolfing down lunch in a hurry. The normal process of food digestion is usually to enter the stomach, store, grind, and digest the food, turning it into a milk like paste before it can be discharged into the intestine. However, if one does not chew thoroughly and wolfs down food for a long time, and the food becomes rough, it will gradually increase the burden on the stomach, thereby damaging it.

5. Coffee Strong Tea

Many white-collar friends are accustomed to waking up in the morning and drinking a cup of black coffee on an empty stomach, which is called "awakening the spirit". Both strong coffee and strong tea are indeed central stimulants, but they can cause ischemia of the gastric mucosa through reflex, disrupting the protective function of the gastric mucosa and leading to the occurrence of ulcers. Therefore, never drink coffee or strong tea on an empty stomach.

6. Drug Abuse

Many office workers, when they are sick, do not have time to take leave for medical treatment. They often go to the pharmacy and casually buy a few boxes of seemingly "targeted" drugs. However, little do they know that there are three main types of drugs that can easily damage the gastric mucosa: one is acetylsalicylic acid, such as aspirin; The second is nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as prednisone, diclofenac, ibuprofen, etc; The third is steroid drugs such as corticosteroids. Therefore, friends with stomach problems should try to avoid using these drugs as much as possible, control the dosage and course of treatment, and preferably take them after meals to reduce irritation to the stomach.

Five principles to help you maintain a healthy stomach1. Regular diet, three meals at a fixed time and quantity

Many people's stomach problems are caused by eating, which is caused by long-term irregular diet and unreasonable food. Poor eating habits can lead to various digestive diseases. To maintain good health, it is crucial to eat well and have a regular diet.

2. Choose more natural and fresh foods

Avoid overly coarse foods and eat less processed foods, especially various processed snacks. And when eating food, be sure to chew thoroughly before swallowing, chew slowly and carefully to avoid increasing the burden on the stomach.

3. Light food

Low salt and less seasoning, avoid eating food that is too cold, too hot, too hard, spicy, stimulating, fried, smoked, or pickled. People with stomach problems should eat less of these stimulating foods, otherwise it will cause a recurrence of the old disease.

4. Eating glutinous Congee instead of pickled rice

Congee is to thoroughly boil the rice, and the starch in the rice is dissolved into the water, reaching the state of "water and milk", which is easy to digest and absorb. Besides, remember not to make rice to eat! Many friends, in order to save time, soak soup and rice together to eat, so that the rice becomes soft in the soup, which can make people mistakenly think that it can be swallowed without chewing. False impressions can make you eat faster and hurt your stomach.

5. Seek medical attention promptly if you feel unwell and undergo regular physical examinations

Many people buy stomach medicine casually when they feel uncomfortable, and some people think that stomach diseases are minor and do not care at all. These are not advisable. Never self medicate or ignore yourself. Once you notice unbearable stomach pain, you should seek medical attention promptly. Those who should undergo gastroscopy should do it, don't miss the best time to treat stomach diseases!
