​​Muffins​

One professionally produced blueberry muffin has five slices of bread's worth of carbohydrates in it. Therefore, it is not a good idea to start your day with high amounts of carb.

​​Cucumbers​

Cucumbers make for a great salad but eating them on an empty stomach may cause flatulence and abdominal pain.

​​Citrus Fruits​

Citrus fruits like grapefruits and oranges might aggravate a lower oesophagus due to acidic nature.

​​Puff Pastry​

Croissants, or even fan khari are highly rich in fat, may seem like a tempting way to start your day, but they contain yeast, a type of microbe that irritates the stomach lining and can result in flatulence.

​​Bananas​

If you eat bananas on an empty stomach, the high magnesium and potassium content of the fruit may cause a magnesium and potassium imbalance in the body.

​​Apples​

Apples should never be eaten on an empty stomach, according to Ayurveda. You can feel bloated and constipated after doing this.

​​Tea and Coffee​

Tea on an empty stomach can occasionally make you feel queasy and uncomfortable in your stomach. Coffee on an empty stomach might worsen gastritis symptoms by raising stomach acidity even further.

​​Tomato​

Even though they make delicious omelettes, tomatoes have significant levels of tannic acid, which raises stomach acidity and exacerbates reflux symptoms.

​​Potato chips​

A low-sodium diet is essential for a heart-healthy diet. Potato chips are high in salt which can cause high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease.

​​Yogurt​

The benefits of the lactic acid bacteria contained in yogurt are rendered ineffective by the high acidity of stomach acid, which is the main reason to avoid consuming yogurt on an empty stomach.

​​Spicy breakfast​

Consuming chiles and spices on an empty stomach may cause stomach irritation. Cramps and acidic reactions may result from this. They can cause indigestion because of their hot nature.

​​Carbonated drinks​

They can harm respiratory passages and reduce blood flow to the stomach, which can cause meals to digest more slowly and lead to constipation.

​​Raw Veggies​

They are packed with rough fibre, which could add to the burden on an empty stomach. When consumed on an empty stomach, they might also result in stomach ache.

​​Low fat peanut butter​

As you begin to reduce the amount of heart-healthy fats in peanut butter, you may also wind up with a product that contains additional sugar and filler substances which are unhealthy on an empty stomach.

​​Sparkling water​

Although flavoured, carbonated water tastes delicious, the bubbles might make you feel bloated and gassy when consumed on an empty stomach.

​​Sweets​

Consuming sugar raises insulin levels, which puts a tremendous burden on the pancreas shortly after it awakens and may result in diabetes.

​​Pears​

Stiff fiber in pear may damage the mucus lining in the stomach. They’re best eaten after lunch.

​​Cabbage and Kale​

Fibrous cruciferous vegetables are difficult for your digestive system to break down, which can result in bloating, gas, and pain in your gastrointestinal tract.

​​Wine​

Save the glass of red wine until after supper because alcohol dehydrates your already dehydrated body. Starting your morning with alcohol is never a good idea.
