#HEALTHTALK: PEPTIC ULCER


Its another week of health talk with Dr. Laura John, C.E.O of Herbal Fountains as she enlighten us more Peptic Ulcer, a common ailment most people treat lightly yet dangerous.


This is caused by stomach acid eating away the lining of the stomach. Where this peptic ulcer does affects? It affects the Lower Oesophagus, Stomach and Duodenum

Conventional drugs can close the lower Oesophageal sphincter and reduce the stomach acid but cannot eradicate the bacterial that causes Ulcer which is known as Helicobacter Pylori however research has shown that there are natural treatment can prevent and also control this condition.

As a result of the eating away of the stomach lining, small open sore occurs inside the intestine which may cause severe gastric distress or bleeding, other causes associated with this condition are the intake of medications that can irritates the stomach and also increases the risk of ulcer ,some of these medications should be avoided. Research confirms the genesis of ulcer from the bacteria called H-Pylori which were found in most patients suffers from stomach ulcer

As funny as it may seem, Diet can also induce ulcer too especially foods that are too spicy, alcohol, nicotine, stress also plays a role in producing excess stomach acids and contrary to past belief, Milk can also be a contributing factor.

Milk was considered to be an excellent intake for ulcer patients but research says the only good thing you can do for yourself if suffering from ulcer is to avoid Milk but take in more of Honey, Shawsorp, unripe plantain, cabbage, cucumber, banana etc. these fruits promotes strong stomach lining by producing a mucous substance that coats the stomach and gives it protection against acids. Food rich in fibre adds protection too.

Use of calcium antacids should be avoided and also over counter drugs, these have never been proven to heal, prevent or control ulcer.
