How to heal ulcers without antacids or antibiotics.

Women's Health Letter | January 1, 2005 | Copyright

If you have ulcers and your doctor wants you to take drugs to treat it, I've got a better idea. Try something simple. Here's what I mean:

Twenty years ago, a woman came to me with ulcers. She had tried stress reduction, a bland diet, and antacids. They hadn't helped her at all. Now her doctor wanted to give her a prescription for drugs that either blocked hydrochloric acid or had anti-inflammatory properties. The medications would allow her stomach to heal and repair itself. However, they didn't address the cause of her inflammation and pain. So she turned to me.
