Acid Peptic Disease: Treatment, Diet and Home Remedies

Food and Nutrition

Foods to be taken
  • Carrots (because of the beta-carotene they contain), red peppers and apricots because they help to heal and scar over sores in the intestinal lining
  • Lean meats, cereals, seeds, eggs, cereals, avocados, and vegetables contain vitamin E that cures sores in the organic linings
  • Lean meats, fish, poultry and skim lactose products are protein rich and they stimulate the esophagus valve (in particular the gullet)
  • Soluble fiber found in cereals, bread and brown rice helps to prevent constipation and releases tension in the colon without pressing on the stomach
  • Bananas and cabbage juice help to reduce gastric acid. Drink 2 or 3 times during the day
  • Eat one yogurt every day, because it helps to maintain the bacterial levels that help the digestive process.
Foods to be avoided
  • Fried foods, alcohol, tea, coffee and soft drinks because they produce excess gastric acid
