Stomach ulcers are treated with antibiotics and medications to reduce and block stomach acid.
In addition to this well-proven treatment plan, research has shown that there are also some natural home remedies that may be useful in managing a stomach ulcer.
Onions
Stock up on onions! They might give you gas, but they also prevent the growth of ulcer-causing bacteria that can increase your risk of gastritis or stomach inflammation and, over time, lead to stomach cancer. Add sliced onion to salads and sandwiches, or toss them into stir-fries, fajitas, and pastas—just avoid frying, which can upset your stomach.
Yogurt
Everyone’s wild for yogurt these days, and for good reason: Most yogurts contain active cultures, lactobacillus and bifidobacterium, that can help digestion by balancing out bad bacteria with good bacteria. If you’re on antibiotics, these yogurts can be especially helpful: They replenish the good bacteria that your meds have eliminated from your body, preventing diarrhea.
Cabbage
Although it’s not the flashiest vegetable, cabbage offers some amazing ulcer-healing abilities: It helps protect the lining of the stomach and intestines and wards off the bacteria that cause ulcers. Try to eat two cups of raw cabbage every day (coleslaw, anyone?), or consider making a super-potent juice: Four cups of cabbage juice per day has been shown to heal peptic ulcers in less than a week! Choose fresh green cabbages for an optimal ulcer cure.
Aloe Juice
You might use aloe vera gel for sunburns and other skin problems, but did you know that the plant’s juice can work its soothing magic on your inflamed stomach lining too? Pick up some juice at your local health-food store or drugstore, and drink a few sips before each meal and at night. Aloe juice will relieve ulcer pain and promote healing.
Garlic
Garlic is one of the world’s most effective and universal natural cures—and it can help prevent and heal stomach ulcers! If you can stand the strong taste, eat two cloves of raw garlic every day to control levels of the H. pylori bacteria in your gut. You can also chop up fresh garlic and add two tablespoons of raw, unprocessed honey. The benefits of honey are not limited to taste: Its antibacterial powers will double-team those nasty bad guys in your gut!
Tea
Tea By now, you should know that coffee will irritate an already-existing ulcer. But not so for tea! In fact, peppermint and chamomile teas are anti-inflammatories that can soothe your ulcer pain and encourage healing. Brew your tea and allow it to cool until just warm—too hot and you’ll irritate your ulcer. Stir in some raw honey for its antibacterial qualities as well as for its sweet flavor. Note: If you have gastroesophageal reflux (or GERD), steer clear of peppermint, which can trigger or worsen indigestion and heartburn.
