Can people with gastritis drink honey?

Patient's question:

When I was young, I didn't have regular meals for a long time and always had gastritis. I have been taking Gaigeiping tablets, in addition to Lizhudele capsules. Recently, I've been having some stomach issues and want to drink some honey pomelo water. I wanted to ask you, can people with gastritis like me drink honey?

Doctor's answer:

People with gastritis can drink honey, but attention should be paid to the timing. It is recommended to drink it an hour before meals. For those with stomach problems, it is advisable to change their dietary habits. Meals should be taken at fixed times and in appropriate quantities. Chew food thoroughly and avoid overeating. Consume soft, easily digestible, and light foods. Avoid fried, hard, spicy, and extremely cold foods. Engage in regular physical exercise to boost immunity. Quit smoking and drinking. Avoid drinking strong tea and coffee.
