A member asked:
What does h. pylori "eat"? how would you starve it to get rid of it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Would not work.: H pylori has all of the nutrients that it needs in the mucus layer of the stomach. There is no way to "starve" it. The only way to get rid of it is treating it with antibiotics. Hope that helps.
