Diet for gastritis

dietary rules for gastritis of the stomach

Gastritis is an inflammation of the lining of the stomach.There is hypo- and hyperacid gastritis (that is, with high or low acidity).

As is known, the stomach produces hydrochloric acid, which determines the content of the type of gastritis.Diet plays a leading role in the treatment of gastritis.

basic rules of diet

The main goal of a diet for gastritis is to adhere to a diet that ensures normal digestion.

The treatment table for gastritis should contain the following (per day):

  • 90-100 gr.proteins (60% animal),
  • 90-100 gr.fat (75% animal)
  • 400-420 gr.carbohydrates.

The total energy value should be 2800-3000 kcal.

Dietary rules for gastritis

Power mode

First of all, you should follow a food schedule (at the same time).Secondly, with gastritis, meals should be fractional, 4-5 times a day, but at the same time it is necessary to avoid snacks (they stimulate the secretion of "too much" gastric juice and reduce its production during breakfast / lunch / dinner, which affects the processes of food processing and assimilation).

Reading and eating, watching TV and "eating while running" should be completely excluded.

Information on the measure

With gastritis, the saying "after eating should feel a little hungry" is more relevant than ever.

Firstly, the feeling of fullness occurs only 10-15 minutes after eating, and, secondly, a full stomach does not cope well with its functions, especially with gastritis.

Chewable food

Chewing food for a long time (at least 25-30 seconds for each piece) promotes a more thorough mechanical processing of food, which makes an upset stomach easier.In addition, hunger in this case is satisfied faster (which prevents overeating).

Refusal of complex dishes

The menu for gastritis should contain simple but varied dishes.Due to a large number of ingredients in dishes it is difficult for the stomach to digest them.

The rest after eating

After each meal, you must rest for 15-20 minutes (no need to sleep).You can read a book or listen to music.

Prohibited foods for gastritis

With increased acidity

forbidden foods for gastritis

For gastritis with increased production of hydrochloric acid, the diet should be aimed at reducing the formation of gastric juice.Therefore, there are 3 points in the principle of the treatment table:

  • mechanical– avoid eating foods with coarse fiber (bran bread, turnips, radishes, "old" meat);
  • chemical– prohibition of foods that increase the production of gastric juice (alcohol, coffee, white cabbage, citrus fruits, sour fruits and berries, strong broth);
  • thermal– do not eat too cold or, on the contrary, hot food (optimal temperature 50 degrees).

Prohibited foods for hyperacid gastritis:

  • fresh bread, especially warm, pastries made from butter and puff pastry;
  • cereals: pearl barley, legumes, millet, barley, corn (coarse fiber);
  • rich meat and fish broth, okroshka, borscht, mushroom soups (it contains many extractive substances that stimulate the production of gastric juice);
  • fatty and stringy types of any meat: duck, chicken, pork, smoked meat (they are difficult to digest in the stomach and increase the formation of hydrochloric acid);
  • Fatty and salty fish (stimulation of the formation of gastric juice);
  • fermented milk products (all types of sour cheeses, limited to sour cream);
  • vegetables: rutabaga, radish, radish, sorrel, spinach, canned vegetables (coarse fiber), as well as onions and garlic, especially raw (stimulate the gastric glands in the mucous membrane);
  • sweets: sour fruits and berries, unripe fruits, chocolate, dried fruits (coarse fiber, increased acidity);
  • spices: mustard, pepper, horseradish (stimulate the production of hydrochloric acid);
  • carbonated drinks, kvass, coffee (stimulate the release of hydrochloric acid, increase gas formation, cause heartburn);
  • fried and hard-boiled eggs, animal fats (other than butter).

Gastritis with low acidity

The goal of a diet for gastritis with low acidity is to stimulate the production of gastric juice (moderately).Food should be taken after starting the secretion of hydrochloric acid, that is, in the first stage (advertising or programs about food, beautiful photos of food, "delicious" conversations can stimulate the release of gastric juice).

Prohibited foods for hypoacid gastritis:

  • fresh bread, rich pastries ("heavy food" for the stomach, it makes chemical and mechanical processing difficult);
  • restrict pearl barley, legumes, millet;
  • fatty meats, meat with skins (films), canned food, smoked meat (insufficient mechanical processing of food, excessive release of hydrochloric acid);
  • fatty and salty fish;
  • vegetables and fruits with coarse fiber (white cabbage, turnips, radishes, cucumbers, bell peppers), mushrooms;
  • berries with grain or thick skin (raspberries, strawberries, red currants, gooseberries, figs);
  • sour and fatty cheeses, milk - neutralizes hydrochloric acid;
  • pork, beef, lamb lard and fat (not digestible due to low production of hydrochloric acid, foods difficult to digest);
  • spices and spices (irritate the gastric mucosa), as well as chocolate, grape juice, alcohol;

Authorized Products

With increased acidity

approved foods for gastritis

Products and dishes that are approved and recommended for gastritis with increased acid formation should neutralize the high content of hydrochloric acid in the stomach and facilitate digestion in the stomach (mashed dishes, liquid porridges, boiled meat, fish and poultry).

Approved products for hyperacid gastritis:

  • "Yesterday" or dried bread, biscuits, dry biscuits (biscuits);
  • Puree pureed vegetables (carrots, potatoes, beets, cauliflower), peeled tomatoes;

  • lean types of meat and poultry (veal, beef without tendons and foreskin, "white" chicken meat);
  • milk, cream, low-fat cottage cheese (antacid - anti-burn effect, coats the gastric mucosa, neutralizes gastric juice);
  • river fish (it contains a large number of unsaturated fats, which normalize the functioning of the digestive tract) in the form of cutlets or steamed, boiled;
  • seafood;
  • parsley and dill, vanillin and cinnamon in small quantities to stimulate appetite;
  • soft-boiled eggs or steamed omelet (preferably white);
  • cabbage, potato, carrot juices (or a mixture) – antacid effect, high content of vitamin U – anti-ulcer factor;
  • rosehip decoction (a lot of vitamin C, which has a healing effect and stimulates appetite), weak tea or coffee with milk, cocoa, still mineral water (to remove toxins).

With low acidity

Products recommended for gastritis with low acidity should stimulate the production of hydrochloric acid.Eating should be at the same time as the start of gastric juice release.

Approved products for hypoacid gastritis:

  • dried bread, crackers, baked goods;
  • porridge with water or diluted milk, well-cooked, liquid, also steamed meatballs and cutlets, puddings, souffles;

The need to follow a diet

No medicine can completely cure acute gastritis or lead to stable remission in the presence of chronic gastritis.

All advertised drugs, which are available to everyone, are sold without a prescription in pharmacies.But they only eliminate (temporarily) unpleasant symptoms (heartburn, pain, belching).

Following a diet for gastritis not only makes life easier for the patient, but also disciplines the person.

The treatment table for gastritis is full and healthy food, normalization of lifestyle, rejection of bad habits and low-quality products.In addition, a diet for gastritis helps to normalize weight (people who have lost weight will gain weight, and people with excess body weight will lose weight), since timely and nutritious nutrition not only normalizes the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract, but also all metabolic processes, and, therefore, strengthens the immune system.

Consequences of not following the diet

consequences of non-compliance diet for gastritis

If you refuse to follow a diet for any type of gastritis, the patient may face the following problems:

  • vitamin deficiency;
  • diseases of the liver, pancreas, duodenum, large and small intestines (as a result of impaired stomach function);
  • significant loss of body weight (fear of eating);
  • peptic ulcer disease and its consequences: perforation of the ulcer, penetration of the ulcer - germination into the organ, bleeding;
  • the formation of atrophic gastritis and its transformation into stomach cancer.
