Can people with erosive gastritis eat bread?

Patient's question:

The other day, I had a stomachache and went to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor said it was erosive gastritis, but it wasn't too serious. He advised me to pay more attention to my diet. I don't really like eating bread. Today, when I walked past the bakery, I couldn't move anymore. Can people with erosive gastritis eat bread?

Doctor's answer:

Patients with erosive gastritis can eat bread because bread is an alkaline food and can also have a certain neutralizing effect on the stomach. Therefore, it is helpful for the treatment of gastritis. However, when patients eat bread, they must eat fresh and soft bread. They should not eat a lot of leftover bread or bread that has been stored for too long, is cold, or is not fresh. At the same time, it is recommended that patients can also eat many easily digestible foods such as rice porridge, soft noodles, and thin soup.
