Disadvantages of drinking coffee on an empty stomach:If you also drink tea or coffee in the morning without eating anything, then this habit can gradually harm your stomach. Ayurvedic health coach Dimple Jangra told in her YouTube video that taking caffeine on an empty stomach can increase problems like acidity and burning sensation in the stomach in some people. This may cause acidity, reflux, heartburn and stomach discomfort. In such a situation, she is telling what things should be consumed on an empty stomach and what things need to be kept in mind while consuming coffee. Let us know how to take care of your stomach health while drinking coffee.
What to drink in the morning on an empty stomach?
Start with healthy fats: Add 1 spoon of ghee in hot water and consume it. The butyric acid present in ghee supports the cells of the inner layer of the stomach and helps in keeping the gut barrier healthy.
Cumin, coriander and fennel tea: Add cumin, coriander and fennel in a glass of water in the morning and then drink the water. This water increases digestive enzymes, reduces cramps, it also removes harmful toxins from the body and speeds up metabolism.
Drink tea-coffee after breakfast
Dimple Jangra says that you can of course consume coffee or tea, just do not consume it on an empty stomach. Drink tea or coffee about 45 minutes after breakfast, so that there is food in the stomach and the effect of acid can be reduced. Adding one spoon of ghee, almond butter or coconut oil to a cup of coffee reduces the effect of caffeine on the stomach. That means you don’t have to give up coffee. Just stop drinking it on an empty stomach.
Include healthy fats in your diet for gut health.
Dimple Jangra says that to keep your gut health better, choose healthy fats like pumpkin seeds, flaxseed, avocado, these help in keeping the membrane of cells in the entire stomach healthy. Aloe vera is also used to soothe the inner lining of the stomach.
