No matter how science develops, people continue to suffer from stomach or duodenal ulcers and from time to time die from it.
The incidence is highly dependent on the microbes in the stomach. If a person has Helicobacter pylori infection, then the chances of waiting for an ulcer are 6 to 10 times higher than that of a person without Helicobacter pylori.
The second reason for ulcers is non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. They quadruple the risk.
In fact, just one infection or drug is not enough to make a hole in the stomach. There will be many different factors involved. Some strengthen the stomach, while others, on the contrary, damage it.
And the factor most loved by people is food.
It is quite logical that if we eat something, it will immediately fall into the stomach and somehow work.
First, about an existing ulcer
Raw vegetables and fruits, coffee, broths, spicy foods, and hard-to-digest fried foods can increase ulcer pain.
Unleavened foods such as boiled vegetables, boiled meat, dairy products, pasta, rice, and other boiled items can reduce pain. It's kind of understandable.
Prevention of ulcers
It's unexpected. The same fruits and vegetables, even raw, reduce the risk of developing duodenal ulcers. Soluble fiber from legumes works better. And least of all, insoluble dietary fiber from different grains provides the least benefit.
When this fact was discovered in 1997, they decided that it was all about the slimy consistency of food with soluble fiber. For some reason, it turned out to be beneficial for the duodenum.
The second notable prevention factor is vitamin A. Moreover, vitamin A is useful from both plant and animal sources, including all kinds of fats. From supplements, the vitamin does not work so well.
It is believed that vitamin A protects the mucous membranes in much the same way in which it is beneficial for the skin.
It also turned out that people who like hot chili peppers are less likely to get peptic ulcers. That is, it turns out that the ulcer itself hurts from the pepper, but if the ulcer has not yet been, then from the pepper the risk of ulcers decreases. Stranger and stranger.
Is your stomach friendly with coffee and pepper?
