Proper nutrition with peptic ulcer

Let's talk not just about a peptic ulcer, but about a stomach ulcer. With this diagnosis, the first thing that doctors pay attention to is nutrition. Diet is the most important condition for recovery.

About some postulates of proper nutrition with peptic ulcer disease should always be remembered. Here are some of them:

1) eat everything in a garbled form, the food should not be an irritant to the mucous membrane of the stomach;

2) eat in small portions in 3-4 hours;

3) exclude very hot and cold food, let the food be at room temperature;

4) do not eat foods that stimulate the production of gastric juice;

5) make dinner tight;

6) reduce the intake of table salt to 8-10 g per day;

Nutrition of the daily diet should be at the level of 3000-3200 kcal. This includes 100g of fats, 100g of proteins and 450g of carbohydrates.

With increased acidity, the use of dairy, fermented milk products, white bread, meat - beef and chicken in cooked form and steamed soups will be correct.

Should be excluded from food:

- coarse food, including coarse vegetative fiber (dates, cabbage, gooseberries, cucumbers);

- fried food;

- fruits and vegetables;

- products containing connective tissues (skin of fish and birds, fat, wiry meat, smoked meat);

- Condiments;

- fatty meat and fish;
- mushroom soup;
- salty, spicy dishes;
- sausages;
- canned food;
- buns, pies, rye bread;
- alcoholic beverages, coffee, cocoa, all fizzy drinks;
- Ice cream.

In the period of exacerbations, the diet should be strict and gentle for the stomach. Within 10-15 days, the basis of nourishment of the ulcer should be liquid food. By the end of the second week, you can add semi-liquid purees, and only then grated foods. Gradually, you can enter into the diet butter, soft-boiled eggs, cream. Beef and vegetables in the form of mashed potatoes, mashed fish and manna and rice porridge can be introduced last. Drink acceptable teas and kissels.

Diets with gastric ulcer should be followed for 6 months. After 2-4 months of such nutrition, with good health, you can enter raw vegetables and fruits in a garbled form. The food should still be of medium temperature. Avoid seasonings and rough food, as they can cause irritation of the gastric mucosa. When using food, chew on it properly.

With the improvement, introduce into the diet cooked, but not wiped products. The number of meals per day - 5-6.
