Eating soda crackers is not good for the stomach and eating too much of it can be a health hazard

When Hua Zi has a party with friends, Jack Bauer keeps stuffing cookies into his mouth. Hua Zi made fun of him, such a big person, but also so greedy, go where to eat snacks. Small strong in all seriousness say, he this is not greedy, but in order to cure. Jack Bauer said his stomach is not good, so eat is “soda biscuits”, heard that this kind of biscuits contain alkaline substances, can neutralize stomach acid, have a maintenance effect on the stomach.

Hua Zi said with Xiao Qiang, tell him two facts. First of all, soda crackers don’t nourish the stomach. Second, eating too many soda crackers is a health hazard.

Soda crackers can’t nourish the stomach

Soda crackers are thought to nourish the stomach because they contain “bicarbonate of soda,” which neutralizes stomach acid. “Baking soda” is another name for sodium bicarbonate, a commonly used food additive. Because sodium bicarbonate is not stable, it will release water and carbon dioxide, which will form many pores in the food, making the pasta become fluffy. And its own weak alkaline, but also can neutralize the pasta in the fermentation process of acidic substances, improve taste.

The “bicarbonate” in soda crackers is a very small percentage, about 0.4 percent or less, and is used as a fluff, not to neutralize stomach acid. So if you want to neutralize stomach acid by eating soda crackers, you need to eat soda crackers as a meal, which is unrealistic.

Two, why eat biscuit stomach not to ache

Jack Bauer does not agree with Hua Zi’s opinion, he said after eating soda crackers, he felt the stomach did not hurt, which shows that soda crackers have a role. Hanako told him that the pain he felt in his stomach was probably not a stomach problem but a duodenal ulcer. Stomach ulcers are mainly manifested as pain after eating, while duodenal ulcers produce hunger pain on an empty stomach.

Because the stomach and duodenum are connected to each other, the pain sites of the two are similar, so people often can’t tell which part of the stomach is hurting. But by analyzing the symptoms, you can tell that if you have a stomach ulcer, after eating, the food will rub against the stomach wall, causing pain. Duodenal ulcers, on the other hand, are caused by gastric acid irritation of the duodenum, causing pain.

In people with duodenal ulcers, after eating, stomach acid mixes with food, reducing acidity and irritation, so pain can be alleviated. So people with duodenal ulcers can use the “eat less and eat more” approach to divide meals throughout the day into smaller portions and eat smaller portions many times to relieve pain symptoms.

But it’s important to understand that any food can actually have a similar pain-relieving effect. For example, a piece of bread, half a piece of steamed bread, a piece of cake, and eat a few soda biscuits the effect is not too bad. It’s just that cookies are easier to carry around and taste better. But this method is only a “temporary treatment, not a permanent pain.”

  1. Soda crackers are a health hazard

Soda crackers are crunchy and labeled “good for the stomach,” and many people like them. But soda crackers are processed with a lot of salt, oil and sugar to make them taste better, which can be a health hazard if eaten in excess or as a staple food.

Too much salt will induce hypertension, and too much oil and sugar, easy to cause obesity, increase the risk of hypertension, hyperlipidemia, diabetes. Biscuits also need to be baked at high temperatures during processing, which increases the content of acrylamide, a carcinogenic substance that increases the risk of cancer.

Four, how should stomach be uncomfortable do

Hua Zi told Xiao Qiang, if you always feel stomach discomfort or pain, then go to the hospital to do a detailed gastroscopy is necessary, and then check whether there is a helicobacter pylori infection. If you have helicobacter pylori infection, you need to be treated for eradication. For the stomach itself, the disease is “three divide-and-conquer, seven foster”.

Our stomach is a “blender”, which is prone to injuries due to daily friction with various foods, so it has a very strong regenerative capacity. As long as the stomach is not very serious, pay attention to eat slowly at ordinary times, eat less raw, cold, hard, hot, stimulating and indigestible food, usually 3 to 6 months, you can keep the stomach.

If the pain is obvious, then under the guidance of the doctor, take an acid drug for a period of time to inhibit the secretion of gastric acid, which can strengthen the protective effect of gastric mucosa, let the gastric wall cells “slow down”, and repair themselves well. There’s no need to eat soda crackers, because they’re a strain on your stomach.

To sum up, soda crackers don’t nourish the stomach. It’s ok to snack occasionally, but you can’t count on it to cure stomach problems, and there are health risks to overeating. The stomach had a problem to want to see a doctor, undertake correct medicaments is treated below the doctor guidance, want to notice to conserve oneself stomach more at ordinary times, ability solves the problem of the stomach thoroughly.
