Nowadays, more and more people have been attacked by the gastric diseases like gastric ulcer and gastritis. It is always difficult for people to deal with the diseases. Therefore, people should protect their stomach in daily life to prevent such diseases. Generally speaking, the healthy diet in daily life can effectively protect our stomach.

  1. People should have dinner regularly in everyday life. Many people can not control their appetite. For example, although they feel full, they will not stop eating the delicious food. As a result, the normal functions of stomach can be seriously disturbed and the secretion of gastric juice can be accelerated, which can easily cause gastritis and gastric ulcer. Therefore, it is beneficial for people to take food regularly and moderately so as to decrease the burdens of stomach. The patients with gastric diseases should increase the intake of nutritious and digestible food during dinner. The intake of snacks should be decreased, or the gastric peristalsis and the secretion of gastric juice can be accelerated to worsen the diseases.
  2. People should avoid the pungent medicines. Some medicines like erythrocin can stimulate the gastric mucous membrane to induce inflammation and ulcer. Therefore, people can not take such medicines for a long time. If they have to take such medicines, they should take them after dinner. If possible, many people can use Chinese medicinal herbs to take the place of such medicines.
  3. People should pay attention to the dietary sanitation. When people are having dinner, they should chew carefully and swallow slowly to reduce the burdens of stomach. What’s more, the intake of pungent food should be decreased. Drinking and smoking should also be quit. The nicotine contained in cigarettes can stimulate the stomach and accelerate the secretion of gastric juice. The alcohol contained in wine can also hurt the stomach. In addition, people should decrease the intake of coffee moderately, as caffeine contained in coffee can also affect the normal functions of stomach. After the stomach is stimulated, the gastric perforation can be easily caused to threaten the human life.

Except healthy diet, optimistic mental state can also protect the stomach for us. The health situation of stomach keeps a close relationship with the mental situation. The high pressure can disturb the functions of cerebral cortex and cause spastic contraction of the blood vessels in the gastric wall to induce gastric diseases. Therefore, people should keep optimistic and happy in daily life.
