Ginger Honey Water

Ingredients: Honey, ginger

Method: Wash the ginger with cold water, then mash it in a garlic mortar and squeeze out the ginger juice. Then, take two tablespoons of the jujube flower honey you bought at home, mix the ginger juice and honey evenly, and drink it slowly at one time. After about half an hour, the hiccups gradually eased, and after about an hour, the hiccups stopped.

It is best to choose fresh and juicy ginger, and the honey used should be acacia honey. This method is simple and effective, and tastes good. It has a good therapeutic effect on bloating and hiccups in pregnant women.

The function of honey: Sucrose invertase, also known as sucrase, is the most important enzyme in honey. During the brewing process, it can convert the collected disaccharides into optically active monosaccharide N, and continue to work during the storage of honey, causing the sucrose content to continue to decrease and the invert sugar content to increase accordingly, hence the name invertase. Honey contains sucrase, which is mainly produced by the bee's hypopharyngeal gland, flows into the mouth and is added to the nectar. Its function is to break down sucrose containing 12 carbon atoms into monosaccharides (glucose and fructose) containing only 6 carbon atoms. This conversion process is the first step in the digestion process. It doubles the number of molecules in honey, that is, the osmotic pressure is doubled, and also prompts another enzyme (glucose oxidase) to react chemically with a small amount of glucose. Like most biological processes, the conversion of sucrose into its two monosaccharides is never completed, so most honeys still contain 1% to 2% sucrose. The sucrose invertase in honey can promote the secretion of digestive enzymes in the stomach, which can quickly relieve the problems of bloating and hiccups.

The above is how to use diet to treat stomach bloating and belching. I hope it will be of great help to some patients who are currently troubled by stomach problems. Similarly, these dietary therapy methods are only part of the treatment methods. They should be chosen according to your own situation, and they are all convenient and effective in life.
