Dietary Advice for Peptic Ulcer
Erosion of the inner lining of the stomach by the secreted acid is referred to as peptic ulcer. Gastric ulcer is the one located in the stomach and duodenal ulcer is the ulcer seen in the duodenum. Severe gnawing and sharp pain are the typical symptoms of ulcer. Intake of food relieves pain. Small and frequent meals are recommended. Milk acts as a buffer and neutralizes the acidic contents.
Increase in the hydrochloric acid in the stomach results in ulcer. Restriction of acidic and spicy foods is effective. Caffeinated beverages, alcohol and smoking irritate the stomach and worsen the condition. You can have a better sleep, by placing two pillows under your head. Placing the chest in a slightly higher level, reduces the passage of the acidic contents into the oesophagus.
Cabbage boiled in water is helpful. A decoction of fenugreek is an excellent remedy against ulcer. A glass of banana milk shake relieves pain and discomfort in the stomach. Drumstick leaves made into a paste with curd is consumed daily. Vegetable juices, especially ash gourd, carrot, beet root and cabbage are useful. Raw goat milk, consumed thrice a day is supposed to reduce ulcer pain. Massage and deep breathing are also helpful.
