Can patients with chronic non-atrophic gastritis eat steamed buns?

Patients with chronic non-atrophic gastritis can eat steamed bread in moderation.

Steamed bread is a staple food made from flour and contains a certain amount of carbohydrates, which can provide energy for the body. For patients with chronic non-atrophic gastritis, steamed bread is considered an easily digestible food that will not burden the stomach or interfere with the recovery of gastritis. Therefore, moderate consumption of steamed bread is safe for most patients with chronic non-atrophic gastritis. Choosing whole wheat or high-fiber steamed bread in particular can help improve intestinal health.

However, patients should consume steamed bread in moderation to avoid indigestion caused by excessive intake. If a patient is allergic to any ingredients in steamed bread, it is not recommended to consume it, to prevent adverse reactions such as itching or swelling. If discomfort occurs after eating steamed bread, or if the steamed bread contains excessive added sugar or fat, dietary adjustments may be necessary.

In daily life, in addition to consuming steamed bread in moderation, patients with chronic non-atrophic gastritis should also choose bland and easily digestible foods, such as millet porridge and soft noodles. Eating more fresh vegetables and fruits, such as tomatoes, potatoes, spinach leaves, bananas, and apples, can also help promote stomach health.

In the dietary management of chronic non-atrophic gastritis, patients should follow the principles of eating small, frequent meals, avoiding spicy and irritating foods, and choosing easily digestible foods. Additionally, attention should be paid to individual physical conditions and responses, and dietary adjustments should be made under a doctor's guidance when necessary.
