i been drinking coconut water for a week now and it seems to relax the stomach and it tastes good .....i did try to drink some fresh carrot juice couldnt do but 3 sips and my stomach said ..HECK NO !!! so nomore ...my doctor also told me nomore tea at all its not good for gastritis i should drink some milk instead it will help to coat the stomach so here i go intsead of tea i ll have a glass of warm milk with honey at night ...i ll try anything to be pain free ..
I can drink carrot juice, in fact I almost eat carrot daily. Sometimes I just can't figure out what to eat!!! It is safe to eat oatmeal as high fiber tend to sit on stomach longer?
It is best not to drink milk because you would better better at first, but later avid production increase because milk is hard to digest. Correct me if wrong.
i really dont know about milk i hear different stories about it ....i have no idea i will ask my PMC tomorrow ....the Gatsro doctor said to drink it....i had some yesterday and the day before it didnt bother me...The carrot juice doesnt bother u at all? it made my stomach flip ...i eat oatmeal, babycereal ,soups, a little pasta and other than that boiled chicken breast and veggies and potatoes i put in the blender ....sometimes i have a slice of bread with the soup.....for some reason i cant eat fish the smell make me gag even tho i love seafood just right now i cant even look at it ....

I replaced cows milk with goats milk, been on it just four days so a bit early to forcast any improvement yet, must say I like it.
Months ago I replaced bread (all types) with Nairn's Oatcakes (no added sugar,wholegrain oats). They are so good I dont miss bread at all.
Always looking to try something healthy, Solofelix.
i had my check up with my PMC this week .She wants me to go see another Gastro doc. to get a second opinion on the gastritis cause she thinks it should be healed and gone by now since i eat right plus she wonders why the doctor didnt make no follow up appointment just gave me a appointment with a gastritis specalist now lets see when i see the new doctor what he got to say ..... i bought unsweetned coconut milk and turmeric ....the coconut milk is nasty i cant drink that i stick with my coconut water and the turmeric i used on my chicken it made my stomach burn so no good for me

Are u having "chronic" type of gastritis?
MD from a healthstore suggest that most gastritis is cause by low acid, this bacteria (other than hpylori) causing inflammation. Therefore, PPi is not going to heal it. He suggest after our stomach does not feel burn anymore (little bit healing), add HCI (hydrochloric acid - stomach acid) with each meal. What do you think?

I just added Turmeric and Ginger Softgels as my supplements, hope it helps with inflammation as said contain anti-inflammatory benefits.
My stomach is Inflamed as I can feel all my ribs as if everything is pushing upwards.
The last time I felt like this I was diagnosed with H.Pylori and an Ulcer.
Have all the symptoms again.
Has anyone tried ACTIVATED CHARCOAL, I read it was good for AR/GERD, PEPTIC ULCER, GASTRITIS and a number of things connected with the Stomach.
Don't forget PROBIOTICS after Antibiotic treatment. Solofelix.
i cant take any thing with Ginger makes my bloodpreasure shoot up sky high even with my meds . is th Turmeric an extra pill ? all i have is the season .. another thought i had yesterday was maybe the bloddpreasure meds . stop the gastritis from healing cause when i was reading up on them online they both say Gastritis as a very rare side effect so i will def. ask my doctor about that ...
@ solofelix
Sorry to hear u feeling bad i never tried the Activated Charcoal but i did read that a lot of ppl use it . there is so much out there sometimes i dont know what to use and try . For now i just stick with a real bland diet ...potatoe soup with no taste to it and baby cereal for the most part.
Hi charcoal may help remove the bacteria of H. Pylori but it may also remove the blood presssure medicine a person is taking. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

This is the trouble with medication, be it Natural or Prescribed.
One can often counteract the other.
Best to check everything out with your GP first.

I have not read all of the posts on this thread but every time I take an antibiotic for 4 or 5 days I get gastritis--- I have tried many meds-- but I get cured with Mastica (2-500gm caps between meals) and a probiotic supplement.
It works for me!!

Thank Harry. But I have taken Mastica for over 3 months yet still have gastritis. Is yours acute or chronic type? Did you have a gastric biopsy to confirm that your gastritis is cure after taken Mastica?
Which antibiotic did you take? I'm on my third days of antibiotic now due to suspected fungal infection in mouth (Fluconazole Tablets 150mg /1xdaily for a week) and for suspected intestinal yeast/bacteria infection (massive gas/bloating) and put on Metronidazole BP 400mg /2xdaily for 1 week) at the moment. I hope this combination won't hurt my stomach lining further as Dr. said that it is MILD antibiotic. I hope so. If gas/bloating still persist, he suggest colonyscopy to rule out other causes. I hope NOT!!! gastritis has taken away my life, I don't want to have another things come into me. I don't know if I can cope with it. While I'm writing this (9.44am), I have lower stomach pain since I wake up (7.00am) till now........

The first time I used Mastica I took several Proton Pump inhibitors(Asiphix and Prilosec) that did nothing.
The gastrisis was diagnosed by a Gastro Doctor using an endoscope exam-- after 2 months -I went to an alternative care MD that uses Mastica in his practice --- I had a scope exam 2 weeks later that was originally scheduled by the Gastro doctor and I was cured as verified by the exam. I continued the 30 day supply of Mastica that was in the bottle. That happened in 2002 I think the antibiotic I used at the time was Cipro for diverticulitis.
I am allergic to Diflucan and have to resort to OTC remedies to help yeast/candida problems.

The best remedy that I have found is Coconut oil. It contains caprylic acid that is a natrual killer of candida. I started with a 1/4 of a teaspoon but I now take 1 teaspoon daily.
It does not completely wipeout all candida -- your system needs some but to function normally -- seems to keep the GI system in balance with candida.
I like and use Garden of Life but all virgin coconut oils seem to works for me.
I have tried other remedies but they seem to loose their effectiveness after awhile.
I wish you well---Harry
BTY-- Coconut oil hardens at tempertures below 76 degrees F and is an oil above 76.

Does it need to be taken with meal or empty stomach? Some user said they get gastritis because of coconut oil.
What's the other stuff (anti candida) that you have tried so far?
My bloating seems went down alot but still have.... also gas but not as major as before that keep on producing. I can feel movement on my lower abdominal, not sure gas movement or muscle contraction. But everytime this movement sensation come, I feel more gas and bloating right after.... Also right after meal, I feel more gas ...... which before meal I have less... that's weird seeing it can increase so fast not even digestion started....
Anyone have extreme bone/joint pain from PPi? Or yeast symptoms? I have on my back shoulder and back hip....
I went and get x rays and bloodwork for my knee joints done last week. Got to wait till the 12th tho till i find out whats goin on. I also got this shloulder and back pain but i cant say if its from the PPI or the gastritis, i know i never have it before i got sick ....my bloating went down a lot so i take this as a goos sign maybe that means im getting better since other pains have gone down too i was nauseous free for bout a week again but for some reason its back in the morning who knows why ...
I found that candida albicans problems could be helped with Caprylic Acid capsules that I bought from the Vitamin Shoppe-- later found that it came from Coconut oil. So, started using coconut oil-- bought 5 different brands and it made no difference if taken on an empty stomach or when eating.
I have used Pau d'aco root caps some people make a tea but I never have, clove tea, miatake tea, aloe juice, Kolorex--a New Zealand remedy, Olive leaf extract, Candida Forta, Collordial silver.
Diet is extremely important. Candida/yeast thrive on sugar and that includes carbos partitularly simple carbs.
Threelac helps control yeast problems. But, they all seem to not work after a while--- and antibiotics just kills off friendly stains of intestinal bacteria.
We are all so different and our immune systems strengths are determine by not only the food we eat but many environmetal factors, processed foods, preservatives, herbicides, pesticides, harmones---water we drink, air that we breath.
There use to be just a few hundred preservatives on the market --- now there are thousands that are used in the food industry. Milk use to get sour in a few days --now it last for a month or so, bread use to get moldy after a week or so --now it gets stale and hard but never moldy.
There are now super bacteria that there are no known antibiotics to kill them.
We drink from plastic bottles that out gas who knows what, aluminum cans, and even use ceramics containers that have lead in them.
Where I live in South Carolina, USA---- no drop of rain falls that is not contaminated with mercury above our FDA guidelines.
I hope this is not too much for you but just think about!!

For Candida I have used (Grapefruit Seed Extract) along with eliminating all sugar and have found this to be very helpful.
For Gas/Bloating take Domperidone half hour before meals.
I have many stomach issues with AR/Gerd, Hiatal-Hernia and Diverticulitis and to answer your joint pains,I get Arthritis and muscle aches when my stomach issues flare up.
Hope this helps and all the best, Solofelix.
