Rice is gelatinized at high temperature, so that cassava starch particles are completely dissolved, and millet and water are melted into porridge. In the case of eating porridge, the stomach of the body can immediately become chyme without too many complicated technological processes. Through the full action of pepsin, it is easily digested and absorbed by our body, and naturally it will not cause pressure on the stomach of the body. Many people will have indigestion, bloating, burping, severe constipation or diarrhea after eating, which is mainly caused by their own hypochlorhydria and abnormal digestion and absorption.
For these people, in fact, "eat porridge to nourish the stomach" is not unreasonable. Porridge has a good regulating effect on the stomach. Porridge is also the gelatinization of rice at high temperature, which makes cassava starch particles collapse and split in the heart, and makes small grains melt into water. In the case of eating porridge, porridge will immediately become chyme in the stomach of the body. Through the full efficacy of pepsin, it becomes dextrin and other components that are easily digested by our body, which greatly relieves the pressure on our stomach.
Some people think that eating porridge can't nourish the stomach, but it will aggravate our stomach discomfort after drinking porridge. That's because these people's stomach discomfort is mainly caused by excessive gastric acid metabolism, gastric acid reflux and heartburn. Porridge itself is actually an acidic and alkaline food. For people with stomach upset caused by excessive gastric acid metabolism, drinking acid-base porridge is really equivalent to "adding fuel to the fire", which will make the body's stomach acid situation more serious, enhance the damage to the body's esophagus, and then aggravate the stomach upset.
Because fresh noodles eat alkaline food, which can balance the pH of human stomach and reduce the discomfort caused by excessive gastric acid metabolism, the idea of "eating noodles to nourish the stomach" is of course established. Hyperacidity is also not conducive to the recovery of gastric ulcer, so patients with gastritis should also pay attention to reducing the consumption of porridge. You can choose some fresh noodles, steamed bread and other alkaline foods for dinner.
Naturally, if fresh noodles are cooked crisp and rotten, it will be more conducive to the digestion and absorption of human stomach and reduce the discomfort of human stomach. The principle of nourishing the stomach with natural fresh noodles is also very similar to porridge. The more brittle, the better digestion and absorption. However, it is likely that some people will ask whether it is better to eat noodles or drink porridge to nourish the stomach, depending on the stomach conditions of different groups.
Generally speaking, it is not good to drink porridge or eat noodles alone. Instead, it is best to diversify your diet as much as possible, or according to your own gastrointestinal situation. People with dry stomach and fear of cold and good liver-qi should eat coarse grains and pasta, while those with weak liver-qi should eat flour and rice and rice.
After all, different people have different gastrointestinal conditions, so we must choose some foods according to our own specific conditions. Whether for people with abnormal gastric acid metabolism or too little, long-term single porridge or noodles are actually not good for our stomach. Because when we eat a certain food alone, we quietly reduce the supply of other foods, and then reduce the intake of other nutrients, which is very bad for the balance of nutrients in our body and for our stomach.
Nourishing the stomach can't be done overnight, nor can it be done overnight. On the contrary, it must be a long-term and continuous whole process. The diversity of ingredients is a basic standard of a balanced diet. We need to choose relevant ingredients according to our body's gastrointestinal condition, and choose to take various ingredients instead.
