Foods that are poison for our intestines

Kajari Goswami

Fried foods: These are high in fat which can cause diarrhea.

Citrus fruits: These are acidic in nature and are high in fibre. Consuming citrus fruits can cause gut health issues in some people.

Artificial sugar: Many studies have shown that artificial sugar can bring severe health issues. These can also damage the intestines.

Overdose of fibre: High fibre like whole grains and vegetables, if consumed too much can trigger digestive issues.

Beans: These are full of healthy protein and fibre which makes them hard to digest causing gas and cramping.

Cabbage and its cousins: Cabbage, and broccoli have the same sugars as beans making these foods hard to digest.

Fructose: This is used to sweeten foods like sodas, candy, fruit juice, and others. These foods are hard to digest.

Spicy foods: Eating spicy foods can cause indigestion and heartburn.
