The stomach is a relatively vulnerable organ in our body. Foods that are slightly hot or cold can cause harm to the stomach. Furthermore, some people really enjoy eating spicy and stimulating foods, which can easily damage the intestines and stomach. We may not know which foods truly harm the body. Research by academician Ge, who is 85 years old, has found that there are some foods in life that cause significant damage to the intestines and stomach. It is advised to eat less of these.
Fried Foods
Fried foods are favorites for many people. Not only are they delicious and crispy, they are also memorable. However, fried foods are high in calories, and the frying process can destroy the original nutritional components of the food. Once fried foods enter the stomach, they may be difficult to digest, affecting the health of the intestines and stomach, and increasing the burden on digestion. These are all harmful to the body, so fried foods should be eaten sparingly.
Soaked Bean Sprouts
Bean sprouts are actually very good food with high nutritional content and relatively easy to digest. However, bean sprouts are not easy to preserve, so they may be soaked in formaldehyde. If consumed excessively, harmful substances absorbed by the bean sprouts will be ingested, causing significant damage to the intestines and stomach. Therefore, it is advisable to consume less of these soaked bean sprouts.
Sweet Potatoes
Sweet potatoes are enjoyed by many people. They are warm and delicious, making for a tasty dish in winter. The sweet and pleasant taste is also very popular. However, sweet potatoes are known to cause bloating. If consumed excessively, or right before bedtime, it may further burden the intestines and stomach, which is not friendly to the stomach. So, it is advisable to eat sweet potatoes in moderation. If the digestive system is already sensitive, it is better to eat them sparingly.
