Patients with gastrointestinal diseases, more than anyone else, need a special therapeutic diet. Diet therapy is the most important element in the treatment of gastritis. Even medications do not provide such a positive effect as a properly selected set of foods and dishes. Therefore, without a properly selected table, it is almost impossible to get rid of gastritis.
Gastritis is one of the most common gastrointestinal diseases. It affects almost 90% of the world's population. For recovery, taking medications alone will not be enough. It is very important to follow a diet. During exacerbations, permitted foods are strictly limited, but during stable remission, the options for possible foods will be more expanded. To get the necessary vitamins you need to eat salads, the main thing is to remember what foods are allowed and prohibited for gastritis.
Basic nutrition for the treatment of gastritis
The essence of therapeutic nutrition is to minimize the risks of any irritation of the inflamed mucous membrane - mechanical (rough and dry food, large pieces, hard fibers), thermal (very hot and very cold food), chemical (salty, spicy, sour, pickled, smoked, fried, fatty).
The diet of a patient with gastritis consists mainly of liquid and pureed foods, pureed and creamy dishes, viscous porridges, delicate soufflés, and soft foods. Steamed meat and steamed fish are allowed, which must be chewed thoroughly.
During the period of remission, you can eat salads. No matter how thoroughly a person chews, pieces of food from the salad will still be swallowed unchewed or not chewed enough. Therefore, salads can be eaten when the disease does not make itself felt and the patient feels comfortable, that is, the mucous membrane is in normal condition and is able to accept solid food.
Salads should be served warm, if the recipe allows it, or at room temperature.
Juicing
Boiled beets are useful for gastritis, and in this form they retain their beneficial properties. It must be prepared in such a way as to preserve the integrity of the root crop. It is cooked unpeeled; before and during cooking it is necessary to ensure that the peel is not damaged.
Heat treatment should last no more than 15 minutes. The product is processed in a pan and in the oven. To do this, the vegetable should be thoroughly washed and you can cook it. If the processing will take place in the oven, then the root vegetables should be wrapped in a double layer of foil. And you should add a small amount of vegetable oil to it.
Salads for gastritis with low and high acidity
Doctors recommend that people with preserved and high acidity adhere to treatment table No. 1 according to Pevzner. The principle of this diet is thermal and chemical sparing of the gastric mucosa. If, due to chronic gastritis, the secretion of the organ has decreased, the patient requires diet No. 2. The main rule of this table is to maintain in the diet foods that increase the production of enzymes and hydrochloric acid.
Salads at any acidity level can include boiled and steamed vegetables, dietary meats, fish, chopped dill, and baked apples. Depending on the type of dish, honey, sugar, yogurt, butter (unsalted melted butter, refined olive, sunflower), egg-butter, milk or sour cream sauce are used for dressing.
What products are allowed to be added?
Salad is a combination of various vegetables, meat, fruits, herbs. However, when preparing salads, you should use only those ingredients that will not harm the irritated mucous membrane lining the stomach. So, you can add to salads:
- Vegetables. They need to be added to salads for gastritis with reduced production of digestive juice. Thanks to vegetables, gastric juice begins to be produced more strongly. These foods include cabbage, potatoes, carrots, beets, pumpkin, zucchini, broccoli and tomatoes. With increased production of digestive juice, eating fresh vegetables, on the contrary, is prohibited. In such a situation, all ingredients must be cooked. It is recommended to boil, bake or cook vegetables in a double boiler.
- Fruits, berries. For gastritis, almost all fruits and berries are allowed to be included in the diet. But it is better to avoid sour and hard fruits. Fruit and berry salads are allowed, the components of which will be apples, pears, bananas, cherries, strawberries, etc. Dried fruits are also allowed: raisins and prunes.
- It is better to season salads with refined vegetable oil. Unrefined oil has a negative effect on an inflamed stomach.
- From greens, it is allowed to add dill, lettuce and parsley.
- If you are a mayonnaise lover, then you should replace it with low-fat sour cream. However, the most dietary option would be yogurt.
- Steamed or boiled meat (veal, beef, rabbit), poultry (chicken, turkey, quail), fish (flounder, tuna, hake, pollock, cod);
- Fish should also be of low-fat varieties. Hake, cod, pollock are allowed. The permissible fat content is 4%. Of the red varieties of fish, you can eat pink salmon and trout. In addition, it is desirable that the fish be caught from clean waters.
- Seafood (mussels, shrimp) must only be boiled.
If the patient has low acidity, then he is additionally allowed fresh vegetables: cucumber, tomato, white and red cabbage, sweet pepper, Chinese cabbage. For patients with high acidity, fresh vegetables are not recommended due to their pronounced irritating effect. They can use roasted peeled tomatoes and peeled roasted bell peppers.
Salads for gastritis can be seasoned with sour cream, lemon juice (for low acidity), vegetable oil, balsamic vinegar (for low acidity), and natural yogurt.
Use with great care:
- Onions and green onions (onions must first be scalded with boiling water and left for 10 minutes or sprinkled with sugar, and after half an hour rinsed with water - this will remove the bitterness that is aggressive for the stomach lining),
- Garlic (half a clove of young, not very hot garlic is allowed every few weeks),
- Fresh and pickled ginger (literally one “petal” to add flavor to the dish),
- Boiled mushrooms,
- Cheese (you need to choose low-fat varieties and consume in limited quantities - about 30 g per serving a couple of times a week with stable remission),
- Legumes (a couple of tablespoons of canned green peas are allowed a couple of times a month).
Making a menu
Classic mayonnaise coat with herring, Olivier, Mimosa and other favorite dishes are included in the list of prohibited foods for pathologies of the gastrointestinal tract. The reason for this is the aggressive components that make up the salads. Gastroenterologists have compiled a TOP list of ingredients that should not appear on the table if you have been diagnosed with gastritis:
- pickled vegetables, peppers, radishes;
- mushrooms, both fresh and canned;
- smoked meats, in particular sprats;
- onion, garlic, horseradish;
- additives: ketchup, mayonnaise, marinade, seasonings;
- green peas, rice, if the patient has signs of bowel dysfunction.
Doctors do not prohibit eating salads for stomach ulcers and pancreatitis only in a state of remission. If the disease has worsened, you feel pain and discomfort, then it is better to refuse such a dish. Limit yourself to pureed food, cereals, jelly.
If you managed to achieve stable remission and alleviate your condition, gastroenterologists recommend preparing salads from vegetables, fruits, and chicken. Use natural yogurt without sugar or flavorings as a dressing.
If you are in doubt about the correct gastronomic choice, ask your doctor for advice.
What products are prohibited from being added?
It is better not to include these ingredients in your diet, otherwise they will cause a new attack of exacerbation of the disease:

Prohibited products:

Recommendations for consumption and preparation of food
Compliance with all nutritional rules developed by gastroenterology specialists is a mandatory part of the treatment of the disease. This maintains stomach health, promotes recovery, and normalization of local microflora.
One of the main rules is adherence to a diet. You should eat food in small portions, but often - up to 5-6 times a day. It is advisable to eat at the same time. What recipes can be used to prepare salads, soups and other dishes for gastritis can only be determined by a doctor.
The prepared dish should be warm; eating hot or cold is not recommended. You need to chew food thoroughly: this way it is easier for the stomach to digest. Freshly prepared food is the most beneficial, so it is better to cook more often, but in small portions.
Recipes for salads and other dishes involve the use of boiled or steamed ingredients. It is allowed to eat some fresh fruits and vegetables. Fried, smoked, fatty, spicy foods should not be consumed.
All vegetables and fruits must be peeled and seeds removed, as the latter irritate the walls of the stomach and are difficult to digest. You are allowed to consume some natural juices that you prepare yourself. For this you can use pumpkin, carrots, a small amount of tomatoes, apples.
During the period of remission, it is better to replace regular tea with homemade juices or compotes, jelly, rosehip infusions or herbal teas. It is best to avoid drinking coffee.
In order to track the amount of food consumed, you need to keep a food diary. With its help, for gastritis it is easy to diversify the dietary menu with new salads, soups and vegetable stews.
For dessert
It's no secret that when you have gastritis, flour and sweets are prohibited - pastries, pies, sweets.
However, it is still acceptable to pamper yourself if your illness is in remission.

Tips for preparing salads for gastritis
With gastritis, the gastric mucosa is sensitive, and with any violation of nutritional principles it immediately reacts with an exacerbation of inflammation. Therefore, it is recommended to prepare the salad from high-quality products and season it immediately before eating it. Meat and fish must be thermally processed until fully cooked, then finely chopped. It is recommended to peel apples, tomatoes, and other vegetables or fruits before slicing. Following these rules will reduce the load on the organ and prevent exacerbation of the disease.
A little about stocks for future use
A variety of winter wraps is the pride of any housewife. However, for gastritis, any marinades are contraindicated. Therefore, you will have to forget about pickled cucumbers and lecho with the addition of vinegar. Your option is freshly prepared food, boiled, steamed and baked vegetables and snacks. Fortunately, the assortment of vegetables in stores is luxurious - zucchini, tomatoes, and even leafy greens can be bought all year round. Therefore, do not try to “stock up” for future use, eat wisely.
An excellent solution is your own dacha. Here you can not only grow vegetables without nitrates and other harmful substances, but also preserve them during the winter. With the right approach, you will have fresh and healthy snacks on your table every day.
How to prepare and serve salads: recommendations
All salad recipes allowed for gastritis share some general rules for preparation and serving:
- Use only high-quality and fresh products.
- It is recommended to grind all ingredients as best as possible, in this form they will be digested faster and better.
- Do not over-salt salads, as salt also has a very negative effect on the mucous membranes of the digestive organs.
- It is better to dress the salad right before serving. If you do this in advance, the dish may oxidize when exposed to air or spoil.
- Heat treatment (if required) must be complete and thorough. For example, undercooked meat will not only complicate digestion, but also increase the risk of contracting infectious diseases.
- Dishes allowed for gastritis should not be too hot or, on the contrary, very cold. So take your food out of the refrigerator in advance. If you take the salad out of the refrigerator, let it warm up a little.
- If you use vegetables and fruits, it is advisable to remove the skins from them, as they are rough and can complicate the digestion process.
Exit the American way
We suggest you borrow a recipe from American restaurants and prepare a Cobb salad. This simple but very beautiful dish will decorate your table not only on weekdays, but also on holidays. The cooking principle, which was invented by an American named Cobb, is simple - all the salad ingredients are beautifully cut and placed on a dish in rows, for example:
- 1st row - fresh cucumber;
- 2nd row – boiled egg;
- 3rd row – boiled meat or poultry;
- 4th row – fresh tomatoes;
- Row 5 – leaf lettuce.
Before serving, real Cobb salad is topped with a sauce made from vegetable oil, wine vinegar and honey, but this dressing is not suitable for gastritis.
Therefore, get creative and come up with your own dressing options - let it be any vegetable oil with a drop of lemon juice or soy sauce. If you do without dressing at all and just add a little sea salt to the vegetables, that’s also fine.
There are many options for preparing Cobb salad. You can use any products allowed for gastritis, and the holiday dish will be completely dietary.
Salad recipes for gastritis
Here are a few salads that are made up of acceptable and conditionally acceptable products. Before preparing them, you need to check the stomach’s reaction to each ingredient by adding it to a proven dish from among those allowed.
Beet salad
Beets should be boiled or baked. Fresh beet juice is very aggressive to the mucous membrane; it can only be consumed with low acidity and in very small quantities, grated. Rubbing is necessary, since beet fibers are very hard and have not only a chemical, but also a mechanical effect.
So, beet salad can be prepared in the following variations:
- Beets, boiled carrots, a little garlic, sour cream;

Sea buckthorn oil, a healing product known since ancient times, has a very good effect on damaged mucous membranes. If you get used to its specific taste and use it to season dishes, the effect of the therapeutic diet will be much earlier than you might expect. One caveat: sea buckthorn oil should be intended for culinary, not medicinal purposes.

Diet snacks
Cod pudding
Clean the fish, separate the fillets from the bones. Grind it in a meat grinder. Add salt and pour in the egg. Place the mixture in a mold sprinkled with white breadcrumbs. Bake until ready, steam, eat the pudding warm.
Pollock pate
Boil a portion of pollock and 1-2 carrots. Pass both through a meat grinder twice. Add a spoonful of softened butter. Transfer the mixture to a salad bowl and garnish with dill.
Jellied meatballs
Dissolve a tablespoon of gelatin in a glass of cold water and leave for 30 minutes.
Prepare fine minced meat from 100 grams of lean meat. Add a piece of bread soaked in milk, 3 teaspoons of vegetable oil, an egg and salt to taste. Form meatballs, steam them until cooked.
At the same time, cook vegetable broth from carrots and celery. Remove vegetables. Pour in the gelatin, bring the broth to a boil (but do not boil!), and strain.
Place the meatballs in the bottom of a wide dish. Fill it with the future jelly in two steps - let one layer harden first, then the other. Too much liquid will not be able to acquire the required consistency.
Don't eat the jelly when it's cold; let it come to room temperature after cooling. Dietary nutrition for gastrointestinal diseases is impossible without thermal sparing of the gastric mucosa.
Rice souffle (only if you are not prone to constipation!)
Boil the meat (beef), cool it, and pass it through a meat grinder. Prepare thick rice porridge - not with milk, but with water. Add the meat to the porridge and pass the whole mixture through a meat grinder. Pour in one egg; steam.
Curd pate
Mix low-fat cottage cheese in a plate with a spoonful of milk, grate the boiled carrots; mix everything. Add some sugar.
For ready-made snacks for lunch, we recommend mild hard cheese, high-quality ready-made meat pate, and natural “Doctor’s” sausage.
Adaptation of your favorite salads for gastritis
The need to adhere to a therapeutic diet does not mean that you have to give up all delicious foods. Most of them can be adapted to new nutritional conditions.
The vinaigrette
Vinaigrette for gastritis can be used in a lighter version - without beans, green peas, sauerkraut and pickles. That is, boiled or baked potatoes, beets and carrots will remain in the composition. To diversify this set of products, you can add a lot of fresh herbs, boiled cauliflower, and broccoli.
Of course, this will not be exactly the version of the vinaigrette that the patient was accustomed to before the illness. But it will also turn out very tasty.
Olivie
It’s also possible to cook Olivier for gastritis. Boiled sausage is an excellent substitute for chicken (after all, Olivier originally contained hazel grouse meat, not sausage), pickled cucumbers can be well replaced with fresh ones, and mayonnaise can be replaced with sour cream, whipped with a pinch of salt and the yolk of a boiled egg. Potatoes, carrots, eggs - all this can be safely put in Olivier.
Crab
Crab salad for gastritis is only possible if the patient manages to buy real crabs. Crab meat made with the remainder of surimi minced fish, salt, dyes and preservatives is not suitable for the “stomach” diet.
If you can’t find crabs for sale, then you can turn to seafood, which is available in most supermarkets - shrimp, mussels, squid, octopus
You need to choose those that should be boiled yourself, and not pickled or generously seasoned with spices. Packages labeled “for salads” are also not suitable in this case: they are too fatty, spicy and salty.
Herring under a Fur Coat
Herring under a fur coat in the usual way won’t work either. But the only catch is in the fish itself (“stomach sufferers can’t eat salty”) and the mayonnaise. You can soak the herring for a couple of hours to remove the salt. This is a solution for patients with gastritis with low acidity.
For those who have high acidity, herring is not suitable even after soaking. Therefore, they will either have to give up such a salad, or try to replace the herring with steamed or baked fish. Other products - potatoes, beets, carrots - remain unchanged.
Ingredients for salads
The right choice of salad recipes and their components allows you to prepare a dish that meets all nutritional requirements for gastritis. Some of them may be beneficial for the stomach and are recommended even during exacerbations. Which salads can and cannot be eaten with gastritis is determined by the type of disease, the composition of the dish and the individual characteristics of the patient.
It is important to remember that any cooked food should not be consumed in large quantities - you need to eat in small portions.
Allowed ingredients:
- vegetables – for gastritis with high stomach acidity, it is useful to eat various vegetables and salads made from them. The most common are cabbage, beets, carrots, eggplants, and tomatoes. Taking them fresh stimulates the production of gastric juice. For gastritis with high acidity, all fruits for salad are boiled, stewed or cooked in a double boiler; fresh vegetables are allowed to be eaten only a little at a time. Vinaigrette for gastritis is one of the most common vegetable salads;
- meat - all lean types are suitable - chicken, rabbit, veal. For gastritis, it is best to add it boiled to salads;
- fruits and berries - optimally adding apples, pears, bananas, non-acidic berries, raisins, prunes;

- seafood - it is useful to add boiled shrimp, mussels, squid to dishes for gastritis, as they contain many vitamins - iodine, magnesium, calcium, iron;
- greens - green salad, dill, parsley;
- Refined olive or other vegetable oil is suitable for dressing salads for gastritis, but unrefined oil can be consumed in smaller doses. You can season it with low-fat sour cream or yogurt.
Important! Some salad ingredients are prohibited for other diseases of the digestive organs - pancreatitis, stomach and duodenal ulcers, diseases of the liver, intestines and gall bladder.
All of these products are allowed to be consumed during remission of gastritis. It is advisable to use each ingredient at least once every 1-2 weeks. In this case, the diet is considered varied and healthy - saturation with vitamins through the consumption of vegetable and other salads is important for the body, weakened by gastritis.
We recommend: Is it possible to use ginger root for gastritis?
During the period of exacerbation of the disease, only certain boiled vegetables are allowed - potatoes, zucchini, broths with lean meat, porridge. With the first improvements, the menu can be slightly diversified; the return to the usual diet should occur gradually. After a recent exacerbation, you can eat vinaigrette, as it contains only boiled vegetables.
Recipes for salad dressings for gastritis
For fish, meat, and unsweetened salads, mild, mild dressings are selected for gastritis. It is not recommended to include garlic cloves and ground pepper in their composition. Depending on the acidity level, vinegar and mustard are either added to half the indicated portion or not used at all.
Egg-butter sauce
The sauce is used to season fish salads. Finely grind the boiled egg, crumble the parsley and dill, grind them with melted butter, add a little salt.
Milk sauce
The sauce is suitable for dressing meat and vegetable salads. For 2 glasses of milk take 2 tbsp. l. wheat flour and butter.
Cooking method:
- Heat the sifted flour in a hot frying pan until the color changes slightly.
- Pour flour into a saucepan and cool.
- Place the saucepan over low heat and slowly pour milk into the flour. To prevent lumps from forming, whisk the ingredients while combining.
- Add crushed butter to the sauce, add some salt and simmer until the liquid thickens.
For gastritis, it is allowed to add chopped herbs and/or 50 g of grated hard cheese with 100 ml of broth to the milk sauce. After removing from the heat, the dressing must be blended with a blender.
General recommendations for gastritis
It is recommended to avoid doctor's, diet and other boiled sausages or sausages. Pevzner included these products in the menu when the technology for their preparation met the standards of medical nutrition.
General recommendations for gastritis:
- It is advisable to eat salads up to 4 times a day.
- It is forbidden to overeat. Salad portions should be small, 100-150 g each.
- When serving, dishes must correspond to a temperature of + 18°─50° C. Such indicators contribute to the rapid restoration of the mucous membrane.
- With erosive gastritis, a person is not recommended to eat salads with fresh vegetables and fruits. They irritate the mucous membrane.
Diet No. 1 or No. 2 is a gentle, complete therapeutic diet in which the body does not experience a deficiency of nutrients. Compliance with it prevents exacerbation of gastritis or the development of ulcers, helps normalize metabolism and weight loss, and the variety of salads allowed for consumption allows you to decorate the daily menu.
Main conditions
There are several culinary rules to remember when preparing salads. Here they are :
- Vegetable salads cannot be prepared for future use. Chopped vegetables retain their nutritional value for an hour.
- Dress salads immediately before serving. If you have gastritis, you should not use mayonnaise, vinegar, fatty and sour sour cream as a dressing.
- Vegetable salads are best consumed at lunch; they are not digested in the morning.
- For hyperacid and erosive gastritis, it is better not to eat raw vegetables, preferring boiled ones.
Conclusion
Any diet should be taken lightly, since in the case of gastritis it is the most effective medicine. If you can’t eat something you love but is forbidden, you shouldn’t be annoyed with the doctor, yourself, or your loved ones for whom this product is not forbidden. The disease will go away, but the habit of eating right will remain. And the body will say “thank you” for this.

Choice
It is important to use a quality product. When choosing it, you need to take into account some nuances:
- When purchasing table beets, you should look at the size of the root crop. This vegetable usually has a round shape. It is advisable to purchase beets with a diameter of 6-12 cm.
- It is necessary to inspect the root crop. It should have a dense structure, no damage to the skin, and no traces of rot.
- It is necessary to pay attention to the color of the vegetable. In a high-quality root vegetable it is burgundy-red with a purple tint. Betaine, found in beets, makes the color rich.
- Before cooking, the vegetable must be cut in half. The color of the beets in the cut should be uniform. If there are white spots or rings, then we can conclude: the beets were grown with fertilizers or this is a fodder variety.
- It is advisable to buy a vegetable with a green top part, especially since it can be used to make a salad.
