Patient's question:
I am 34 years old. Recently, I don't know why I always feel nauseous and like vomiting. My stomach aches sometimes with symptoms of burning and acid reflux. I went to the hospital, and it was fine for a while, but then it came back again. Can people with atrophic gastritis eat alkaline foods?Doctor's answer:
Atrophic gastritis can consume alkaline foods, but they should not be too strong. Medications that suppress stomach acid and protect the gastric mucosa can be given for treatment. Avoid extremely cold, sour, and spicy foods, do not overeat, and actively treat the condition. Do not eat sweet foods on an empty stomach. Maintain a proper diet, avoid acidic foods, rest well, keep the abdomen warm, and prevent harmful stimuli such as cold and dampness. Engage in regular physical exercise.
