there are many elderly Usually they dare not eat fruit because after eating fruit, they will feel very uncomfortable in their stomach, either with acid reflux or a cold stomach. This is because a large number of fruits contain high sugar content and some are cold in nature, and most elderly people have varying degrees of stomach cold or acidity.
Elderly people with cold stomachs should try not to eat fruits with a cooler nature, such as pears, grapefruits, bananas, etc. Like lychee, apple, Grape , watermelon, peaches, dates, apricots, pomegranates, and pineapples can all be eaten. It is recommended to steam some fruits such as pears and apples to reduce the cold nature of the fruits. You can usually eat some leeks, fennel, Jerusalem artichoke, ginger, and drink some beef and mutton soup, which can warm the stomach.
Elderly people with acidic stomach should be careful when eating fruits, because most fruits have a sweet and sour taste. The stomach is already sour, and eating fruits will make it more sour, which will of course make them uncomfortable. It is recommended that after eating some bitter or spicy vegetables, such as bitter melon, pepper, ginger, garlic, chayote (these vegetables can restrict the formation of gastric acid), you can eat some fruits in moderation, but only in moderation.
