7. Choose time to drink
The best times to drink are after getting
up in the morning and at one hour before meal. Drinking right after meal
dilutes gastric juice, enhancing the chance of gastralgia. Too much soup
consumption will affect food digestion.
8. Be careful with low temperature
Once the stomach gets cold, it works less
efficiently. Thus, patients need to keep stomach warm.
9. Avoid stimulants
Don’t smoke as it shrinks blood vessels of
the stomach, damaging the provision of blood cells to stomach walls then
reducing gastric membrane’s resistance. You shouldn’t drink wine or eat spicy
foods… to maintain your stomach’s operation.
