Hello friend,
With the question “Can you drink orange juice mixed with sugar for peptic ulcer? ”, the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Orange juice has a very good effect on increasing resistance. However, in case you have a stomach ulcer, you should not use orange juice. Because orange juice or sour foods have a lot of acid, making the stomach and duodenum vulnerable and causing ulcers, especially when taken on an empty stomach. After the treatment for stomach ulcers, you can use it, but you should not use it on an empty stomach.
If you still have questions about peptic ulcers, can you drink orange juice mixed with sugar, you can go to the hospital of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
