Question 1

i am suffering from gastric ulcers what dry fruits, fruits and vegetables should i eat?

Accepted Answer

Diet for ulcer: there is no specific diet for gastric ulcers. You should be cautioned to avoid any particular foods that you notice cause you trouble. A lot of people have difficulty with spicy foods. If your gastric ulcers have been diagnosed by endoscopy, it is important to follow through with the medication prescribed for them. Avoid aspirin and NSAIDs. Treat H. pylori if present. Good luck.

Question 2

i have vitamin deficiency and i can't eat fresh fruits and veggies because of my ulcer/gastritis. suggestions?

Accepted Answer

Supplements: Are you sure you can't eat any fresh fruits and vegetables.  Gastritis/pud could be exacerbated by citrus but what about bananas, avocado, carrots for example.  The other option is to take multivitamin supplements.

Question 3

if you have an inflamed esophagus and stomach but have no ulcers or bacteria of anykind is it ok to eat veggies and fruit like tomatoes?

Accepted Answer

Esophagitis: This depends upon the source of the inflammation. Bacterial infection in these circumstances is usually not the issue, but rather there is the potential for viruses and yeasts to produce inflammation. Or this may simply be due to reflux. Eating various foods may irritate these tissues, but you should first be seen and evaluated by a GI doctor.

Question 4

its said citrus fruits,potato chips can cause apthous ulcers?these foods cause micro injuries to the oral mucosa? or its the heat in body?and whats the role of vitb12 supplement. does taking supplement makes oral mucosa stronger against such injury?

Accepted Answer

Injuries: "It's said" by who? I've not seen well refereed research to support "micro abrasions" or "heat in the body" as precursors to aphthous ulcers. No, supplements don't help, only create supplement-rich urine. For best results have well balanced diet, brush 2x/day for 2 FULL minutes, floss or water-pick daily. See your Dentist 2x/year for evaluation &amp; professional cleaning.

Question 5

i have small mouth ulcer,i ate cutted fruit by dipping chlorine water 3 times in hotel ac room,if hiv blood in the fruit can it be removed by dipping same water by 3 times still it can infected blood can enters into mouth ulcer i am worried?

Accepted Answer

: HIV transmission is not possible in above scenario, fruit acidity may be irritating to your mouth ulcers.

Question 6

i have mouth ulcer very small 70 % recoved i ate jackfruit if there is hiv blood on fruit can it infect . before eating i dipped in water 3 times i have serious illness anxiety disorder,i feel i will get different virus and stressful?

Accepted Answer

: Oral exposure to HIV is low risk. Anyway, there is no realistic chance of blood on the fruit anyway. This is your anxiety disorder speaking. It sounds like it might be severe enough to need counseling or other professional attention. But do your best to stop worrying about HIV or any other virus in this situation.

Question 7

what should i eat if i have an ulcer?

Accepted Answer

Paying attention to : What and how you eat. Chewing your food well and eating only what you need is vital to preventing irritation. You may find that you have fewer symptoms when you eat five or six small meals a day. Getting lots of fiber seems to help people with ulcers  so make sure you're eating lots of whole-grain food items as well as plenty of fruits and vegetables.
Try not to eat within 3hoursbefore bed time.

Question 8

what healthy foods can i eat that are ulcer friendly?

Accepted Answer

Fruits and vegetable: Fresh fruits and vegetables are ulcer friendly foods. Avoid caffeine, high fat foods. Lean proteins and low fat dairy products are also acceptable, eggs and fish are also ulcer friendly. Whole grains and legumes are also part of a ulcer diet. Small meals are better than large ones, low in fat intake.

Question 9

i had suffer this ulcer month now. i just want to ask if having ulcer it affects ur sense of taste? i became thin since i dont prefer eat anything..

Accepted Answer

Evaluation: A non-healing oral ulcer needs further evaluation. You should see an ear, nose throat doctor as soon as possible, especially if you are losing weight.

Question 10

what is the best thing to eat if you have bad ulcers?

Accepted Answer

Cabbage and aloe : Cabbage and cabbage juice has been found to have remarkable effects in helping ulcers to heal. A nice discussion of this can be found at http://www.Naturalnews.Com/027454_cabbage_ulcers.Html aloe vera juice is also very helpful. In general fresh fruits & vegetables (other than citrus) tend to be helpful- esp. Apples, kale, kelp & green tea. See http://www.Ulcer-cure.Com/treatments/ulcer-diet.Php.
