Eating forbidden food on an empty stomach can cause gastritis, or at least digestive system disturbances. Improper food can also lead to increased stomach acid, which can ruin your whole day, or cause itchiness, high blood pressure, elevated sugar levels, and there are also more and more illnesses due to vitamin overload (unfortunately, mostly products of the chemical industry, such as vitamin-enriched effervescent tablets and other dietary supplements).
[s2]1. Citrus Fruits
Eating oranges, tangerines, grapefruits on an empty stomach increases the amount of acid in the stomach, exacerbating gastritis, which can cause stomach pain and allergic reactions. In children, it can lead to atopic dermatitis.
[s3]2. Yogurt
The greatest benefit of yogurt comes from healthy probiotic organisms, which is good to consume in the morning, or at least two hours before bedtime. When the beneficial bacteria in yogurt come into contact with the stomach acid, metabolism completely stops, and probiotics are lost much earlier.
[s4]3. Bananas
Bananas are rich in nutrients beneficial for our body, especially magnesium and potassium, which have a positive effect on our heart and blood vessels. The problem that can arise from eating bananas on an empty stomach is that it disrupts the balance of these elements, causing digestive disturbances, especially in the stomach, bile, and intestines.
[s5]4. Sugar
You should not eat or drink anything sweet for breakfast. Sugar on an empty stomach triggers the pancreas to produce enough insulin to help regulate blood sugar levels. Another thing that can happen due to sugar is the disruption of the body's acid-base balance, which can be a cause of various eye diseases.
[s6]5. Raw Vegetables
Yes, even raw vegetables can be on the list of harmful foods because they irritate the stomach, causing gastritis. This risk is particularly high if you eat cucumbers, tomatoes, bell peppers, or cabbage on an empty stomach. The ideal time to consume vegetables is during lunch and dinner.
[s7]6. Pears
Pears are rich in minerals, vitamins, and fibers. Due to their high content of fruit acids and raw fibers, pears are best eaten half an hour after a meal, especially if you have consumed fatty or meaty foods.
[s8]7. Garlic
While few people start their day with garlic on an empty stomach, it's important to note that despite its exceptional health properties, garlic on an empty stomach irritates the stomach, causes complications with the gallbladder, and also gives you bad breath.
