Diet & Lifestyle Cha: Eating, diet, and nutrition do not play a role in causing or preventing gastritis, according to researchers. But as you are healing and taking medication to reduce stomach acid, you may want to avoid foods that can increase stomach acid production.Bananas, oatmeal, high fiber food, yogurt, melons , all can help in reducing acid. Diet and lifestyle changes often begin with what to avoid.
