Food is not digested and accumulates in the chest

Everyone must have encountered the situation of not being able to digest food. When you see delicious food, you eat too much, and your stomach may not be able to digest it in time. If you eat too much, you will feel uncomfortable in the chest. This is a manifestation of indigestion. Therefore, people must be careful not to overeat when eating. A healthy diet is good for the body. Eating too much will not absorb nutrients and will affect health.

●Test stomach acid Lack of stomach acid is the direct cause of indigestion. You can do a stomach acid self-test. Take one tablespoon of apple cider vinegar or lemon juice. If this makes the heartburn go away, then you need more hydrochloric acid (which can be given in the form of pure apple juice mixed with water during meals). If this makes your symptoms worse, you have an overdose of hydrochloric acid and should stop taking enzymes containing hydrochloric acid.

●Maintain a balanced diet Maintain a balanced diet rich in fiber, such as fresh fruits and vegetables and whole grains such as whole wheat. Chew slowly and don't swallow it quickly.

●Foods to avoid: Avoid refined sugars, bread, cakes, pasta, dairy products, caffeine, orange fruits, tomatoes, green peppers, carbonated drinks, potato chips, junk food, fried food, spicy food, red meat, beans, and cola. Reduce salt intake. Processed foods, junk foods, and all dairy products stimulate excessive secretion of the mucous membranes, leading to protein indigestion. Limit the intake of peanuts, lentils, and soybeans. They contain an enzyme inhibitor

● Pay attention to the combination of food. Protein and starch, vegetables and fruits are not a good combination. It is best not to drink milk with meals. Sugar and protein or starch are not good for digestion.

●Acidic drinks for eyes: Add one tablespoon of pure apple cider vinegar to a glass of water and sip it during meals to aid digestion. Drinking a glass of lemon water first thing in the morning has a healing and blood-clearing effect

●Taking charcoal Charcoal tablets are effective in absorbing gas in the body, but they can interfere with medications and nutrients. Do not take for a long time

●Drink rice soup Rice soup and barley porridge are effective for problems such as bloating, flatulence and heartburn. Use 5 parts water to 1 part grain (rice or barley) and boil for 10 minutes. Cover and simmer for another 50 minutes. Filter, cool, and drink several times a day

● Exercise. For example, brisk walking and gymnastics are good for digestion.

● Fasting If you have foul-smelling stools and burning sensation in your anus during bowel movements, you may want to implement a fasting plan
