Long-term consumption of rice soaked in soup may lead to stomach cancer

Any improper diet may irritate the gastric mucosa, causing a series of gastric diseases and even becoming the cause of gastric cancer. Among the more common causes of gastric cancer , rice soaked in soup and eating too spicy food are often not given enough attention.

Some people like to mix rice with soup and eat rice soaked in soup. This will cause the food to slip into the stomach before it is chewed in the mouth, increasing the burden on the gastrointestinal tract. In addition, eating rice soaked in soup will also reduce saliva secretion, which is not conducive to food digestion and nutrition cannot be fully absorbed. In addition, the taste nerves are not stimulated as they should be, and the secretion of gastrointestinal digestive juices is reduced, which will eventually lead to gastrointestinal dysfunction, maldigestion and malnutrition, and even become the cause of gastric cancer.

Eating spicy food in moderation can improve your health, but eating too much spicy food will lead to excessive secretion of digestive juices, causing congestion and edema of the gastrointestinal mucosa, and a sharp increase in gastrointestinal motility, which is also one of the common causes of gastric cancer.

Soup with rice is not suitable for long-term consumption. If you eat it occasionally, you should chew it slowly to reduce the burden on the gastrointestinal tract. In addition, it is best to change the habit of eating soup with rice to drinking soup or porridge before meals. Drinking a small amount of soup before meals can not only moisten the mouth and esophagus, but also stimulate the mouth and stomach to produce saliva and gastric juice, which helps digestion. After the porridge is boiled in water for a period of time, the rice grains become soft, and the starch is broken down into dextrin that is easily absorbed by the gastrointestinal tract, which will not affect digestion. For those who like spicy food, you can drink a glass of milk before eating spicy food to protect the gastric mucosa. For those who have poor gastrointestinal function or hot body, if you really can't resist the temptation of spicy food, you can choose some slightly spicy food.

Of course, the causes of gastric cancer are more than those listed above. In daily life, improper eating habits often lead to increased burden on the stomach, especially for some urban white-collar workers. Under the dual pressure of life and work, their life and diet are irregular, which makes gastric cancer more likely to occur.
