Long-term drinking porridge hurts the stomach

"Old people drink porridge, more blessings and more life" is an old saying of health. Indeed, the digestive system of the elderly has declined. It is indeed beneficial to digest the porridge properly, but don't drink it as a staple food every day, otherwise it will hurt the stomach.

First of all, drinking porridge without chewing, lack of teeth activities, will accelerate the degradation of the chewing organs of the elderly. There is another more important reason: the process of chewing is actually a digestive process. The teeth crush the rice grains and promote the secretion of saliva. The enzyme contained in the saliva has a preliminary digestion effect on the starch in the food. And restaurants like porridge, almost without the help of chewing and saliva, directly into the stomach and intestines, will affect digestion.

In addition, saliva also neutralizes stomach acid and repairs the gastric mucosa. Drinking porridge is naturally not conducive to protecting the gastric mucosa. If you are sick and need to drink porridge for a long time, it is recommended to add some auxiliary materials such as beans, peanuts, high-fiber celery, etc., to increase the chance of chewing, can improve this problem.

Therefore, patients with stomach diseases should not drink porridge every day, but should choose a diet that is easy to digest and absorb, and slowly chew and promote digestion, which is more beneficial.
