Ms. Wu is 32 years old this year. When she was a child, her family was not in good condition and she was always hungry and full, so her stomach became not very good. Recently, I heard that I would drink porridge if I wanted to nourish my stomach, so she developed the habit of drinking porridge every morning.
In the first few days, Ms. Wu did feel that her stomach felt much more comfortable, so she became more convinced of the saying "drinking porridge to nourish the stomach". However, after persisting in the habit of drinking porridge for a month, Ms. Wu found that she frequently felt stomach bloating and stomach pain. Sometimes she was weak all over and lost a lot of weight.
After going to the hospital for gastroscopy, it was found that it was chronic gastritis, , and the habit of drinking porridge every day even worsened the symptoms of gastritis. Ms. Wu was puzzled. Didn’t she say drinking porridge to nourish her stomach?
Doctor said that drinking porridge is easy to digest, but if gastric acid has no food to digest, it will stimulate the gastric mucosa and cause stomach discomfort. In addition, the amount of water in the porridge water is large. Drinking porridge regularly will weaken digestive function and even make the stomach become lazy, which is not good for the stomach.
1. Porridge is the "worst staple food". Can't you drink porridge for breakfast?
Zhang Wenhong's remarks about Bai Chong once caused heated discussions - "Children are not allowed to drink porridge for breakfast", "You should drink less porridge during illness"... Is Bai Chong really the worst staple food? Although
white porridge is nutritious, it is just relatively simple in nutrition, mainly carbohydrate , , and protein , dietary fiber, vitamins, etc., the content is relatively low in .
, and Zhang Wenhong's view of "don't drink porridge for breakfast" is actually based on the nutrition that white porridge can provide is carbohydrates, , and teenagers and patients need most, nutrition and protein , especially breakfast should be eaten more. Compared with white porridge, egg milk is recommended.
Of course, in addition to not meeting nutritional needs, drinking white porridge in the morning actually has these disadvantages:
First, white porridge is the fastest staple food , especially for diabetes people with Lai Shui, breakfast Hezhou will undoubtedly increase the blood sugar, which is not good for stabilizing blood sugar.
Secondly, it may lead to deterioration of gastric function . White porridge is a warm liquid food . Eating soft and rotten foods like white porridge can easily cause inertia in the stomach, and this will even lead to deterioration of gastric function in the long run.
In addition, many people always like to pair pickles with pickles when drinking white porridge. Pickles contain a lot of sodium. Eating white porridge with pickles for a few days may cause the sodium in the body to exceed the standard . Moreover, pickles and pickles are used as pickles, and eating too much is not beneficial.
2. Can porridge still be drunk? Harvard Research: Drinking porridge can prolong life
Since the nutritional content of white porridge is single, can you still drink this white porridge?
Harvard scholars have spent more than ten years studying the relationship between drinking porridge and health, and finally found that eating 28g of coarsely ground grains every day, such as a small bowl of white porridge, can reduce the risk of death and Hear heart disease 5% and 9% .
White porridge is a fact, but this does not mean that you cannot drink porridge at all for breakfast, but it is just that you should pay attention to the combination when drinking white porridge.
Deputy Director Li Ying from the Department of Nutrition, Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University, explained that you can drink white porridge for breakfast, , but drinking white porridge alone is definitely not nutritious enough. It is recommended to use it with egg lean meat and other .
In addition, if white porridge is low in nutrition, it can be "transformed", such as adding mixed grains to make eight-treasure porridge, millet porridge, etc., or sprinkle with minced meat or shrimp, fish fillets, chopped vegetable leaves, etc., and the nutritional level of the porridge will also be further improved.
There is another very important point. Although white porridge is easy to digest, not everyone is suitable for eating. The following groups are not suitable for drinking porridge:
- Diabetic patients : Drinking white porridge can cause rapid increase in blood sugar;
- Reflux esophagitis patients : Drinking porridge can easily cause gastric reflux;
- Gastric sagittal patients : Drinking porridge may aggravate gastric sagittal.
3. Is drinking porridge nourishing or hurting the stomach?
Some people say that white porridge is easy to digest and will not increase the burden on the stomach, so it can nourish the stomach, but some people say that white porridge is not nutritious. Drinking porridge regularly will damage the stomach. So, is porridge a food nourishing the stomach or harming the stomach?
White porridge is a semi-liquid food, is a very easy digestion and absorption for children, the elderly and patients after the operation.

. For example, diabetic patients, drinking porridge can easily increase the gallbladder in their stomachs. In addition, porridge is a staple food with a high glycemic index.

The sodium salt content in pickled vegetables is relatively high. Long-term consumption of pickled vegetables can easily damage the gastric mucosa. In addition, there is a carcinogen nitrite in pickled vegetables. will enter the stomach and form nitrosamine . Over time, gastric cancer may occur .
In addition to white rice, white porridge is also a very common staple food on the daily table, but for most people, the nutrition of white porridge is indeed not comprehensive enough.
