Here are 9 things you shouldn’t do on an empty stomach to maintain your health and well-being:
Take Medication:
Certain medications, like pain relievers (e.g., ibuprofen, aspirin) and some antibiotics, can cause stomach irritation when taken without food. Always check with your healthcare provider for guidance.
Drink Coffee:
Drinking coffee on an empty stomach can increase the production of stomach acid, leading to heartburn and digestive discomfort. It can also affect your stress hormone levels.
Consume Alcohol:
Drinking alcohol on an empty stomach allows it to be absorbed more quickly into the bloodstream, which can lead to a stronger and faster intoxication, as well as potential stomach irritation.
Chew Gum:
Chewing gum can stimulate the production of digestive acids, which can lead to bloating and discomfort when there’s no food to digest.
