I have ulcers and GERD because of bacteria I didnt know I caught. Can I get help from the mangosteen?
The bacteria Helicobacter pylori have been shown to be a major cause of gastritis, GERD and gastric and duodenal ulcers. None of the purple pills used to treat these disorders have any action against this bacteria, which can be found in the majority of patients with ulcers. Recently, H. pylori has also been implicated as a possible cause for fibrillation, a heart arrhythmia. The mangosteen, tested against H. pylori in an in vitro experiment, destroyed the bacteria, in a rat study the researchers stated animal treated with xanthones exhibited marked protection against ulcers My own GERD is controlled with the mangosteen, and I felt it was more effective in my patients with GERD and ulcers than all the purple pills I used to prescribe.
