Gastric congestion due to eating fruit incorrectly

Grapes, hawthorn, pomegranate, and persimmon are rich in tannic acid, which can easily cause ulcers and stomach congestion, so they should not be eaten after meals.

According to Health Sina, eating a plate of fruit after a main meal at home or at a restaurant is a habit of many families. However, experts point out that eating fruit after a meal, especially fruits rich in tannic acid, is very harmful to the stomach, and in the worst case can lead to ulcers.

Dr. Qian Dong Mei, Head of the Department of Gastroenterology, Tong Ren Hospital, Beijing, China, said that some fruits are rich in tannins such as grapes, hawthorn, pomegranate, and persimmon.

Do not eat persimmons after meals.

If you have eaten a meal with highly acidic foods, then eat fruits rich in tannic acid, it is easy to form indigestible crystalline substances in the stomach. This causes ulcers, even leading to gastric bleeding.

Dr. Qian advises that it is best not to eat fruit immediately after a meal. Most fruits contain a certain amount of sugar. Eating fruit after a full meal can lead to absorbing too much sugar, which can cause indigestion and adverse digestive symptoms, as well as increase body weight, making you obese.
