For many people, the Chinese New Year is like a carnival on the tip of their tongue, with morning tea, meals, and late night snacks taking turns, combined with hotpot, barbecue, desserts, and the effects of staying up late, which can easily lead to an overwhelming burden on the gastrointestinal tract. Today, Lu Xiao, Deputy Chief Physician of the Emergency Department of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine, sent us a strategy of gastrointestinal burden reduction to help us cope easily: first, stop chopping when we are not hungry at a dinner party, and then stop chopping when we can eat two mouthfuls. Choose steamed, boiled, and fried dishes, and chew slowly. If you eat too much greasy food, it can be served with millet gruel and cold cucumber to alleviate the greasy food; The second is to control the amount of cigarettes and alcohol. If possible, do not drink. If you cannot refuse, eat staple food to fill your stomach before drinking to avoid stimulating the gastrointestinal tract on an empty stomach; Thirdly, it is important to have a regular schedule and diet. It is recommended to go to bed no later than 12 pm at night, with a minimum interval of 4 hours between each meal to avoid overeating or excessive hunger; The fourth is to get moving. Do not sit for long periods of time playing cards or scrolling through your phone. Instead, get up and take a 15 to 20 minute walk or do some stretching exercises. To celebrate a safe and healthy Spring Festival, it is important to take good care of your stomach by controlling your mouth, taking breaks, and maintaining a regular schedule. (New Society)
