healthy and wholesome food
Expert in the preventive medicine segment of the NTI HealthNet market Andrey Martyushev-Poklad: with gastrointestinal disorders, the body, for example, can react negatively to fiber.

Expert Martyushev-Poklad stated in an interview that a healthy person who does not have gastrointestinal disorders and chews food well has practically no problems when consuming certain foods. But if there are abnormalities in the functioning of the digestive tract, even healthy foods can make you feel worse and provoke the appearance of negative symptoms.

Speaking about this, Andrey Martyushev-Poklad cited the example of fiber, which is constantly recommended for consumption as one of the most important and healthy ingredients in the daily diet. The specialist explained which people might react badly to it.

“Sources of fiber, which is considered to be a component of “proper nutrition,” cause fermentation.. If a person has problems with the large intestine (irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory diseases), then sources of fiber, namely fresh vegetables, fruits, bran, cereals and legumes can aggravate the problems,” the expert shared with Vechernyaya Moskva.
Martyushev-Poklad added that many people today’s body “revolts” when consuming gluten, a protein from cereal plants (primarily wheat). Some cereals containing it (for example, bulgur or barley), bread, and pastries can be quite healthy according to their recipe, however, if you are hypersensitive to gluten, their use will cause unpleasant and painful symptoms similar to allergic reactions.

Another healthy product that is poorly accepted by the body due to gastrointestinal disorders is meat.

“If the functioning of the stomach is impaired, the production of acid and other components of gastric juice is reduced, discomfort can also be caused by the consumption of complex proteins, primarily meat “, the expert explained.
In turn, if the normal outflow of bile is disrupted, discomfort can be caused by eating fatty foods, which can also be healthy, and in a certain quantity – simply necessary for the body.

If after consuming those or Other products cause undesirable reactions from the body, this must be discussed with a doctor, the expert concluded.
