  Indigestion is a taboo in the elderly's diet, so some foods that are not conducive to digestion should be avoided in the elderly's diet.

Foods that are not conducive to digestion by the elderly

  1. Avoid eating foods containing too much protein and calcium

  Dairy, dairy products, lean meat, fish, dried shrimp skin, egg Yellow and salted eggs, preserved eggs, animal cartilage, beans, soy products, kelp, seaweed, etc. all contain a lot of protein or calcium. If you consume too much, the stool will be alkaline, dry and small, and difficult to excrete, so you should eat less.

  2. Avoid tobacco, alcohol and spicy food

  3. Avoid flatulence and indigestible food

  Dried beans, onions, potatoes, potatoes and sweets should be appropriately controlled to avoid affecting the gastric transport and aggravating the symptoms.

  4. Avoid hard and greasy food

  Hard and greasy foods are not suitable for digestion and will aggravate the condition after eating, so they should be avoided.

  5. Avoid long-term consumption of glutinous rice

  Glutinous rice contains a large amount of dextrin, which is highly sticky, has low swelling properties and is not easy to digest. People with indigestion who eat glutinous rice for a long time will aggravate their condition.

  6. Corn should not be a partial eclipse

  Corn protein contains fewer amino acids than other grains and beans. It lacks lysine, tryptophan, threonine and other essential amino acids for the human body. The niacin contained in corn is a conjugated type and cannot be absorbed and utilized by the human body. A partial diet of corn will result in a lack of these nutrients, leading to malnutrition.
