A member asked:
If ppi is taken on regular basis for gastritis. then consumption of tomatoes, citrus fruits, spicy/oily stuff wont have much effect on the healing?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No guarantees : The reduction in stomach acid production by ppi's can help but cannot rule out problems with dietary selection. If one has active gastritis, the dietary choices that you make can slow healing regardless.Much of this will be volume dependent & varies by individual.
