Junk Food

Foodies who love their meat find it extremely hard to give up. Attachment to and an affinity for meat causes meat cravings. Not meeting the adequate dietary protein requirements might also be a cause for this. People who are deficient in iron, zinc, vitamin B12, folate, or magnesium might crave red meat. Pregnant women might also have these cravings. Often, craving for meat might be craving for junk food. The latter is highly addictive.

If you love your junk food, it can be hard for you to give it up. Chew slowly to decrease the amount of junk food you eat. Snack on high protein snacks and manage stress to reduce junk cravings. Replace sugary desserts with fruits to pack on the nutrients. Eat before grocery shopping to avoid getting unhealthy foods. Plan your meals to prevent impulsive eating. Switch unhealthy habits with healthy ones for a few weeks.

Junk food is fatty, salty, and sugary – all bad news for your body which will reel under the cholesterol, refined ingredients, preservatives, and artificial flavors and colors in it. Help your body recover from a binge with some ginger tea, green tea, cranberry juice, or plain warm water and lime. Eat smart after a binge so that you can contain the damage and feel better. Lean protein, healthy salads, and low-fat yogurt are good ways to fill up without making you feel even worse.

Gastritis is an umbrella term for any condition that occurs due to an inflammation of the stomach. The causes of acute or chronic gastritis can vary in each person. But what you eat can either worsen or improve your health. The best bet is to avoid any irritants, which include spicy foods, dairy products, alcohol, smoking, caffeine, processed foods, and anything you're allergic to.
