Why does my stomach hurt when I eat?

In terms of diet, you can eat more millet porridge, lotus seed and poria porridge, glutinous rice porridge, etc., to adjust the stomach and intestines, repair the gastric mucosa, and relieve gastrointestinal pain.

Stomach pain after eating is caused by stomach disease. It can be relieved by paying attention to adjusting your diet.

Therefore, Zhang Jiegu said that it belongs to Yang, floats and rises, referring to its nature; Dongyuan said that it is the Yin in Yang, descends and goes down, referring to its function.

3. Lotus seeds

Lotus seeds have a mild medicinal property and a slightly sweet taste. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that lotus seeds can replenish the spleen and stomach qi, have an antidiarrheal effect, and also have the effect of nourishing the heart and calming the nerves. It should be noted that the lotus seeds need to be cored before consumption.

The description of lotus seeds in Compendium of Materia Medica is "Lotus tastes sweet, warm and astringent, with a refreshing and fragrant aura and the taste of harvest, and is the fruit of the spleen. Earth is the mother of primordial energy, and when the mother energy is harmonious, the body fluids are formed, and the spirit is naturally generated, and it can help one stay alert and resist aging, because of its power. In the past, people used Qingxin Lianzi Drink to treat disharmony between the heart and kidney, and leukorrhea caused by overwork; and Ruilian Pills to nourish the heart and kidney and improve the essence and blood, all of which follow this principle."

4. Gorgon Fruit

Gorgon fruit, also known as chicken head rice, is mild in nature and sweet and astringent in taste. It is one of the best foods for nourishing the spleen and stomach. It also has the effect of strengthening body fluids. Its effect is similar to that of lotus seeds, except that its astringent effect is stronger than that of lotus seeds. If you have diarrhea due to weak spleen and stomach, Gorgon fruit can help stop diarrhea. Since water chestnuts are hard, they should be boiled for a long time, or they can be ground into powder and added to porridge.

The "Compendium of Materia Medica" records that "Gorgon fruit nourishes the spleen because of its sweet taste; Gorgon fruit strengthens the kidney because of its astringent taste. Because its sweet taste nourishes the spleen, it can eliminate dampness and cure diarrhea and abdominal pain; because its astringent taste strengthens the kidney, it can hold the breath and cure nocturnal emission, leukorrhea, and urinary incontinence. Its function is similar to that of yam, but the yin of yam is originally greater than that of Gorgon fruit, and the astringency of Gorgon fruit is even greater than that of yam; and yam can also nourish the lung yin, while Gorgon fruit only nourishes the spleen and kidney but not the lung.
