Rolling out of bed with very hungry makes us very hungry that we just eat anything that comes first in our sight. What you do not know is that there are some foods you should never eat on an empty stomach because these foods could actually be harming your body. Jumia Food, Nigeria’s No.1 food ordering platform, shares these foods.

Spicy food

Eating spices on an empty stomach may irritate the stomach lining which can lead to acidic reactions and cramps. They are very sharp and strong taste and as such, it can trigger indigestion. Garlic, hot chili, and ginger are examples of spicy foods.

Sugary foods or drink

Many are under the impression that it is healthy to have a glass of fruit juice to start your day. This may not be the case as it may put an extra load on the pancreas that is still waking up after long hours of rest.

Cold beverages

You must have heard that it is best to start the day with warm water and honey, yet many of us give into the temptation of downing a glass of iced beverages instead. Drinking iced beverages on an empty stomach may damage your membrane and make your slow digestion through the day.

Citrus fruits

Fruits are always very healthy if they are eaten at the right time. Eating citrus fruits on an empty stomach may increase acid production. Moreover, too much fiber and fructose in fruits can also slow down your digestive system if eaten on an empty stomach. You should especially avoid eating fruits with tough fibers like guava and oranges early morning.

Coffee

Kicking off your day with a cup of coffee is a very common practice. It seems to be an easy way of breaking from sleep, but drinking coffee on an empty stomach may lead to acidity.

Bananas

Banana is good for digestion and it contains high amounts of magnesium and potassium. But when eaten on an empty stomach, it can cause imbalance magnesium and potassium levels in our blood.

Tomatoes

Though tomatoes are enriched with Vitamin C and nutrients, they should definitely be avoided on an empty stomach. The unpleasant acid present in tomatoes increases acidity in the stomach and may lead to gastric problems.

If one listens to all the advice concerning food, he'll be one thing today, and the next minute starve to death.

My advice: in all your eatings, eat moderately.

Hmmm

So many conflicting opinions everywhere.

So what food should we eat on empty stomach op?

As much as food is a necessity for survival, we should all remember that "Man shall not live by food alone, but by every word that proceed from the mouth of his CREATOR" It has become vividly undeniable that nobody can be great in this our World unless you are living by the Word of GOD or by the word of satan. In your Journey to Destiny fulfillment you are either praying/reciting GOD's Word or chanting satan's incantation. Show me one great Individual that relies on food alone. All eyes are now open, the days of atheism is gone forever. Don't sell your conscience/eternal Soul for satan's short glory, YAHWEH is still in the business of transforming persons to celebrities here in this world and eternally. 2 Chronicles 16:9 "For the eyes of the LORD move to and fro throughout the earth" HE's seeking those to use to demostrate HIS Glory here. The best way to be great here and still live forever is to Accept JESUS CHRIST Today, tomorrow may be too late.

It's like you have not tried grand nuts.

Well as for foods with high sugar levels, it is advisable on an empty stomach when the person is hypoglycemic...

In other words, recall that kind of hunger that makes you shake and sweat, it is highly recommended that you take any drink/snack with high sugar composition as this will be broken down quickly within the body and stored as energy...

...don't mention, what are friends for?
