Hermina Kendari Hospital Medical Team Supports Volcano Fried Rice Eating Competition

Hi Hermina Friends, RSU Hermina Kendari participated in the "Volcano Fried Masi Eating Competition" held by mamahotplate kendari located at lippo plaza mall kendari

In this activity, RSU Hermina Kendari participated as a Medical Team, before starting the competition all participants had their blood pressure checked first and were educated about the effects of consuming excessive spicy food

Eating too much spicy food can cause epigastric pain or sharp stabbing pain just below the ribs. This is a common symptom of GERD.

Spicy food can also cause a burning sensation if you have functional digestive disorders. Capsaicin, a chemical compound in chilies, can irritate the esophagus, which can lead to acid reflux.

In addition, the very acidic nature of spicy food can irritate the stomach lining. Therefore, you should avoid spicy foods if you often experience GERD or acid reflux.
