Gastrointestinal disease has a special relationship with nutrition. The main function of gastrointestinal tract is to digest food and absorb nutrients, so the gastrointestinal diseases will affect the intake of foods and nutrients.
Gastrointestinal disease has a special relationship with nutrition. The main function of gastrointestinal tract is to digest food and absorb nutrients, so the gastrointestinal diseases will affect the intake of foods and nutrients.

To patients of chronic gastritis and ulcers, they have to face many difficulties: abdominal pain, discomfort and other symptoms lead to reduced feeding and insufficient nutritional intake; the nutrient intake deficiency is not conducive to healing of inflammation or ulcers in turn. Obviously, the elimination of infection and ulcers needs adequate nutrient supply, which creates a vicious circle.

In clinical work, we can often see thin gastritis patients with poor diet intake. To some extent, the treatment of chronic gastritis and ulcers should break the vicious circle and supplement enough nutrients to patients to accelerate the healing of disease.

We can find that patients have taboos, and they cannot eat raw, cold, cool, hot, sticky, hard, coarse and irritant foods. Without any adverse reaction, they prefer porridge rather than hard rice; they prefer vegetables rather than meat; what’s more, they only eat easy-digestive foods to avoid pain instead of seeking medicine treatment. All these actions are not good for the recovery of diseases because of malnutrition.

It is now known that H. pylori infection is the most important cause of chronic gastritis and ulcers, and there is no relationship between Helicobacter pylori infection and above foods. In addition, the damage of above foods on gastric mucosa is not obvious, and it even cannot be called one of the reasons to damage mucosa protection mechanism. Therefore, the intake of above foods is very necessary. The gastrointestinal tract also needs training to be healthy, so the appropriate intake of raw, cold, cool, hot, sticky, hard and coarse foods are beneficial.

The so-called “appropriate” has two meanings: Firstly, it should not aggravate the symptoms of diseases and can be accepted by gastrointestinal tract. Conversely, if you feel pain even you eat only a little irritant foods, your disease is quite serious and you should go to hospital for further treatment. Secondly, the purpose is to supplement nutrients such as eat raw vegetables and fruits.

In summary, patients of chronic gastritis and ulcers should choose various appropriate foods to achieve the balanced diet.
