Don't do these things on an empty stomach
When you are hungry, do not make these mistakes or it will affect your digestion and be very harmful to your stomach.
 |
| Taking anti-inflammatory drugs: Aspirin, paracetamol and other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) should not be taken on an empty stomach. Not only will this reduce the effectiveness of the drug, it can also cause serious health problems (such as stomach bleeding). |
 |
| Drinking coffee: Even decaffeinated coffee stimulates acid production which can cause heartburn and other digestive problems if consumed on an empty stomach. Especially if you skip breakfast and drink coffee, it can lead to serotonin deficiency and moodiness throughout the day. |
 |
| Drinking alcohol and carbonated water: If you drink alcohol on an empty stomach, it will lead to stomach pain and low blood sugar. At that time, dizziness, sweating, cold and hunger may occur. In particular, if the blood sugar level drops too low, it will lead to coma. |
 |
| Chewing gum: The digestive acid produced while chewing gum destroys the lining of the stomach; eating too much gum can lead to gastritis. It has also been scientifically proven that people who chew gum will prefer junk food (chips, candy) over fruits and vegetables, which will lead to many health problems. |
 |
| Going to bed: Being hungry can easily lead to low blood sugar, which can keep us from sleeping. Lack of sleep increases the level of hunger hormones. This is why we eat more the next day after skipping dinner. The best way is to consume dairy products because they contain magnesium and calcium. These elements will help you sleep well. |
 |
| High-intensity workouts: There is a myth that exercising on an empty stomach will burn more calories. The truth is that it has no effect on fat burning. Exercising on an empty stomach can actually reduce the effect due to lack of energy in the body. If you have digestive problems, you should have a light meal before exercising because physical activity produces harmful gastric juices. |
 |
| Drinking orange juice: The acids contained in citrus fruits irritate an empty stomach and it is especially dangerous for people who have gastritis or are at risk of developing it. |
