6 Foods to Avoid on an Empty Stomach. #doctor #food #didyouknow #avoid #learn

👩🏻‍⚕️If you're new here, I'm Dr. Tania Elliott, board-certified internal medicine specialist and allergist.

☕️Number 1, coffee.

You want to wait at least 90 minutes after waking up before you have coffee. Why? First, it increases stomach acid production, which could make acid reflux symptoms worse and cause stomach ulcers. And number 2, for coffee, when you drink it first thing in the morning, it actually reduces your natural awake hormones and makes you feel sleepier later in the day. And make sure your coffee is certified organic so you know it's not treated with pesticides, which can make all of these symptoms worse.

🥦Number 2, raw vegetables.

Look, they're great for fiber. The problem is they can contribute to bloating, so then you can have stomach discomfort and distension throughout the course of the day. Best to eat with a side of protein.

🥣Number 3, yogurt.

A lot of people eat yogurt because of its probiotic properties, but if you eat it on an empty stomach, the acid in your stomach can actually kill off the good bacteria.

🍊Number 4, orange juice.

First, super high sugar content, so it's not as healthy as you think and it causes a glucose spike. And second, it is known to increase stomach acid production, again, leading to stomach ulcers and bad acid reflux.

🍌Number 5, bananas.

14 grams of sugar in a banana. What happens?
A very high glucose spike on an empty stomach. Also, if you have a heart issue, remember, bananas are high in potassium and magnesium, which could be good, but you may need to be on a low potassium diet depending on whether or not you're on medications for blood pressure.

🍅Number 6, tomatoes.

Do not drink tomato juice or V8 First thing in the morning. Why?
It's a very acidic food, which means it increases stomach acid production and leads to possible ulcers and acid reflux.
