Peptic Ulcer
The right diet is the key to managing many diseases and to improving general quality of life. For this condition, scientific research has found benefit in the following healthy eating tips.
| Recommendation | Why | Get started |
|---|---|---|
| Steer clear of sugar | Sugar has been reported to increase stomach acidity, which could aggravate ulcer symptoms. | |
| Try some cabbage juice | People have found relief from symptoms by drinking a quart of cabbage juice per day for 10 to 14 days. Carrot juice may be added to improve the flavor. | |
| Uncover allergies | Avoiding food allergens may be helpful for people with peptic ulcers. Talk to a doctor about possible food sensitivities; once you’ve identified problem foods, a low-allergen diet can help you avoid them. |
