What causes heartburn when drinking tea

People who understand health preservation and health care will drink some tea every day to promote the healthy development of their body. The lecithin and other ingredients contained in tea do have a very good effect on the human body. However, some people with poor stomach and heart conditions may experience heartburn when drinking tea. This phenomenon makes them feel very uncomfortable, because it is like putting a fire in their body. So what is the reason for heartburn after drinking tea?

What kind of tea should people with bad stomach drink less

Chrysanthemum tea: It is the summer heat season now, and many people want to drink chrysanthemum tea to reduce the heat. Chinese medicine believes that chrysanthemum tastes sweet and bitter, and is slightly cold in nature. Although chrysanthemum tea can clear away heat and detoxify, it is not suitable for long-term continuous drinking. Especially people with weak spleen and stomach should drink less. If you drink too much, it can cause stomach discomfort and lead to acid reflux.

Green tea: Green tea has anti-cancer effects and has the highest nutritional value, but it is also cold in nature, so it is not suitable for people with cold stomachs. For example, Longjing, Biluochun, Maojian, etc. are all green teas. People with stomach pain often drink these teas, which may cause stomach discomfort.

Yellow tea: such as Junshan Yinzhen, is also cool in nature and is not suitable for people with cold stomach. However, yellow tea is not common in the market. For example, Junshan Yinzhen has a very small output and is hard to find.

White tea: White tea is relatively rare, but you should not drink too much of it as it is cold in nature and not suitable for people with cold stomachs.

Raw Pu'er: Many people think that Pu'er tea is very beneficial to the body. Pu'er is divided into raw tea and cooked tea. If you have a bad stomach, it is best not to drink it too raw. Drinking cooked tea can nourish the stomach.

Herbal tea: In today's fast-paced life, herbal tea is a favorite of many people, because herbal tea is "very cold", which is not good for people with stomach problems.

Several taboos for nourishing the stomach

Avoid eating too fast. After food enters the stomach, it is stored, ground, and digested, turning it into chyme before being discharged into the intestines. If you do not chew thoroughly and swallow food in a hurry, the food will be rough, which will increase the burden on the stomach, prolong the retention time, and may cause damage to the gastric mucosa. In addition, chewing slowly can increase saliva secretion, which is beneficial to the protection of the stomach.

Avoid uneven eating and drinking. When you are hungry, the gastric acid and protease in the stomach have no food to neutralize them, and the concentration is high, which can easily cause self-digestion of the mucosa; while overeating can easily damage the stomach's self-protection mechanism. Excessive expansion of the stomach wall and prolonged retention of food can lead to stomach damage.

Avoid coffee and strong tea. Coffee and strong tea are both central nervous system stimulants, which can cause gastric mucosal ischemia through reflex, destroying the protective function of the gastric mucosa and leading to ulcers.

Avoid unclean food. Helicobacter pylori infection is one of the important causes of gastric disease and duodenal ulcer. The detection rate of this bacterium in patients with ulcers is as high as over 70%, and the bacterium disappears after the ulcer is cured. Ulcer patients can be infected through close contact such as tableware, toothbrushes and kissing. Unclean food is also one of the causes of infection.
