Foods you should never eat when you're sick

生病時絕不能吃的那些食物!

Orange juice

橙汁兒

When you should skip it: You have a cough or sore throat.

什麼時候不該喝:咳嗽或喉嚨痛時。

Why it makes you feel worse: Orange juice's tArt acidity is usually refreshing. But when you have a cough or cold, it can hurt your throat. "It contains citric acid, which irritates the lining of your already-inflamed throat," says Taz Bhatia, MD, professor of integrative medicine at Emory University and author of What Doctors Eat. That means your throat will hurt more and take longer to heal.

爲什麼會讓你的病情加重:通常,橙汁兒的酸味會提神。但是在你咳嗽或感冒時,這會對你的喉嚨造成傷害。"橙汁含有檸檬酸,會刺激你已經發炎的喉嚨,"醫學博士泰茲·巴蒂亞說道,他也是埃默裏大學整合醫學教授,同時也是《醫生吃什麼》(What Doctors Eat)一書的作者。這就是說你的喉嚨會損傷更嚴重,也需要更長的時間才能治癒。

Coffee

咖啡

When you should skip it: You have any type of illness, but especially a stomach bug.

什麼時候不該喝:在你生病的時候(不管什麼病),尤其是肚子痛時更不能喝。

Why it makes you feel worse: The caffeine in coffee is a diuretic, so it can make you pee a lot and leave you dehydrated. That's bad news when you're battling a virus or other infection, since getting enough hydration helps your immune system fight more effectively, says Kristine Arthur, MD, an internist at Orange Coast Memorial Medical Center in Fountain Valley, California. Caffeine is even worse when you're dealing with vomiting or diarrhea, since both can cause you to lose fluid. Taking in extra caffeine on top of that will only make that dehydration worse. Plus, caffeine can actually stimulate the muscles in your digestive tract and make your diarrhea more intense, Dr. Arthur says.

爲什麼會讓你的病情加重:咖啡中的咖啡因是利尿劑,所以你上廁所的次數會變多,從而會脫水。當你在與病毒或其它感染作鬥爭的時候,這可不是好消息,因爲水分充足可使免疫系統更爲有效,醫學博士克里斯蒂娜·亞瑟說道,她也是加州方廷瓦利橘子海岸紀念醫療中心(Orange Coast Memorial Medical Center)的內科醫生。當你嘔吐或腹瀉時,攝入咖啡因會使情況更糟,因爲這兩種病都會使體內水分流失。除此之外,攝入額外咖啡因會使脫水更嚴重。此外,咖啡因實際上會刺激消化道肌肉,從而使得腹瀉更爲嚴重,亞瑟醫生說道。

生病時絕不能吃的那些食物

Sweets

甜食

When you should skip it: You have any type of illness, but especially a stomach bug.

什麼時候不該吃:當你生病的時候(不管什麼病),尤其是肚子痛時更不能吃。

Why it makes you feel worse: Eating refined sugar can temporarily suppress your white blood cells' ability to fight off bacteria, says Dr. Arthur. For a few hours after snacking on cookies, candy, or sugary cereal, your immune system is weaker. As a result, it's less efficient at fighting off the germs that are making you sick. Refined sugar poses even more of a problem when you're dealing with a stomach bug. "Sugar tends to pull fluid out of the GI tract, which can lead to diarrhea," Dr. Arthur says.

爲什麼會讓你的病情加重:吃精製糖會暫時抑制白細胞抵抗細菌的能力,亞瑟醫生說道。但吃了餅乾、糖果或含糖麥片後,只要幾個小時你的免疫系統就會更弱。因此,在抵抗使你生病的細菌方面也就效率更低了。當你肚子痛的時候,精製糖會使情況更嚴重。"糖往往會使液體從胃腸道中流出,從而導致腹瀉,"亞瑟醫生說道。

Crunchy snacks

脆脆的零食

When to skip them: You have a cough or sore throat.

什麼時候不該吃:咳嗽或喉嚨痛時。

Why they make you feel worse: The abrasive texture of snacks like potato chips, granola, or even crispy toast will feel like sandpaper on your raw throat, Dr. Bhatia says.

爲什麼會讓你的病情加重:薯片、格蘭諾拉麥片、甚至是脆皮吐司等表面粗糙的零食會像砂紙般穿過你的喉嚨,巴蒂亞醫生說道。
