What Foods Should an Ulcer Patient Eat?
Ulcers, also called peptic ulcers, are sores on the lining of esophagus, stomach or small intestine that are primarily caused by infections from bacterium called Helicobacter pylori and use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, such as ibuprofen and aspirin, according to the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases. Two common misconceptions are that ulcers are caused by spicy food and relieved by milk. However, certain foods may help you heal from ulcers.
