Five fruits you should never eat on an empty stomach

　　Eating some fruits (such as persimmons and oranges) containing tannic acid or other organic acids on an empty stomach will stimulate the secretion of a large amount of gastric acid, which can easily induce Stomach disease attack.

　　Organic acids vary depending on the type, variety and maturity of the fruit. Fruits that taste sour and have poor maturity contain a lot of organic acids. Tomatoes, persimmons, oranges, hawthorns and other fruits contain a lot of organic acids, so they cannot be eaten on an empty stomach.

　　Tomatoes: contain a large amount of pectin, persimmon phenol, soluble astringents and other ingredients. If eaten on an empty stomach, these ingredients will easily combine with gastric acid to form insoluble lumps. Once these lumps block the pylorus, the outlet of the stomach, the pressure in the stomach will increase, causing gastric dilation and causing distended pain。

　　Persimmon: Contains substances such as persimmon phenol, pectin, tannic acid and tannin, which have a strong astringent effect. The tannic acid contained in persimmons encounters "persimmon stones" that are difficult to dissolve when gastric acid condenses on an empty stomach. Foods containing more tannic acid include pomegranate, hawthorn, Grape , black dates, etc.

　　Oranges: Oranges contain a lot of sugar and organic acids. Eating oranges on an empty stomach will irritate the gastric mucosa, causing gastric bloating and acid reflux.

　　Hawthorn: Hawthorn has the effect of promoting qi and digestion. If eaten on an empty stomach, hawthorn contains a large amount of pectin and tannic acid, which will not only increase hunger but also aggravate stomach problems.

　　Bananas: contain higher levels of potassium and magnesium. Eating bananas on an empty stomach will increase the amount of magnesium in the blood and have an inhibitory effect on the cardiovascular system.
