What is the reason for quick digestion

Since everyone's physical condition is different, their gastrointestinal digestion and absorption conditions are also different. Some people's gastrointestinal digestion and absorption are very slow, while some people's gastrointestinal digestion and absorption are very fast. People whose stomachs and intestines digest and absorb food quickly often feel hungry not long after eating, which causes them a lot of trouble. So what is the reason for the fast stomach and intestines digest and absorb food quickly?

Do many people feel that they feel hungry soon after eating? In fact, this is a manifestation of rapid gastric emptying, and there are other symptoms such as fatigue and gradual weight loss. However, in life, many people do not pay attention to this situation, thinking that they have strong digestive function and digest faster than others, so they eat when they are hungry, which is not a disease. In fact, this is incorrect. The harm of too fast stomach emptying is still very large, and the damage to the stomach is also continuous. So, what is the reason for too fast stomach emptying?

In addition to emotions, there are many other factors that affect a person's gastric emptying rate, including various physiological and pathological factors. Reasons that affect rapid gastric emptying include:

(1) Promoting factors:

① Food capacity in the stomach;

②Gastrin.

(2) Inhibiting factors:

① Gastrointestinal reflex;

② Enterogastrone: secretin, gastric inhibitory peptide, cholecystokinin, etc.

Accelerated gastric emptying is seen in patients with Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. In some patients with duodenal ulcers, gastric emptying of solid matter is accelerated, while liquid emptying is normal. The upper abdominal distension, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and weakness that patients experience 10 to 30 minutes after a meal after gastric surgery are considered to be early dumping syndrome. Palpitations, sweating, and weakness that occur 1 to 3 hours after a meal are considered delayed dumping syndrome.

There is a large overlap in clinical symptoms of rapid or delayed gastric emptying, which can manifest as upper abdominal distension, early satiety, upper abdominal pain, nausea, etc. However, when gastric emptying is too rapid, in addition to the above symptoms, it is often accompanied by "dumping syndrome"-like symptoms such as diarrhea, intestinal cramps, and vasomotor symptoms. There are differences in treatment between the two, so it is important to distinguish them.

Dietary and lifestyle habits that slow gastric emptying should be avoided. For example: do not eat acidic foods, do not eat high-fat foods, keep a happy mood, do not smoke, try to avoid using drugs that slow down gastric emptying, eat semi-liquid foods, etc. Apply gastric emptying theory, control diet, and slow down gastric emptying.

In addition to detecting symptoms early in the early stages, patients with rapid gastric emptying should also do a good job of daily health care, develop good eating habits, avoid overeating, or eat raw, cold, and spicy foods. During the illness, be sure to eat things that are gentle on the stomach, pay more attention to rest, chew slowly when eating, and eat less acidic or overly sweet foods.
