Dyspepsia is a clinical syndrome characterized by symptoms of epigastric discomfort, and its harm cannot be ignored. Long-term indigestion will directly affect the digestion and absorption of food by the stomach and intestines, and then cause a series of health problems. So, what are the common causes of indigestion?Let's find out.
1. Dietary factors
Dietary factors are one of the common causes of intestinal problems, and regular consumption of spicy or heavy foods can easily irritate the mucous membrane of the gastrointestinal tract and weaken the digestion and absorption capacity of the gastrointestinal tract, which can easily cause indigestion. In addition, eating too much meat and less fruits and vegetables will cause insufficient fiber in the body, increase the burden on the stomach and intestines, and cause indigestion.
2. Excessive stomach acidity
Normally, stomach acid can promote the digestion of food, but excessive gastric acid secretion can lead to incomplete digestion of food, which eventually produces symptoms of indigestion.
3. Environmental factors
Sudden changes in the weather, temperature and other environments will also affect the digestion and absorption capacity of the gastrointestinal tract, causing people to have a decrease in appetite or indigestion.
4. Helicobacter pylori infection
Helicobacter pylori can damage the gastrointestinal mucosa and induce inflammation, which in addition to causing indigestion can also increase the likelihood of gastric AI.
5. Nervousness
Long-term mental tension and depression will cause the nervous system and endocrine system to lose control, and then cause symptoms of gastrointestinal indigestion.
