Curing Gastritis

Do you suffer from appetite loss, flatulence of stomach, nausea, vomiting, dizziness or perhaps, headache? Are you sure you don’t have gastritis problems? In some cases, it might be joined by a pain and discomfort in the chest and stomach area. You might also suffer from a coated tongue or a foul breath. Scanty urination and constipation (though diarrhea may occur in some cases) may be a part of it as well.

This generally happen due to undisciplined lifestyle, bad food habits, improperly cooked food, excessive use of condiments, sauces, alcohols, smoking and such. Even too much anxiety can cause gastritis. But nothing to worry, gastritis can be cured very easily with a bit o’ care and attention.

First of all, you have to rectify your food habits. You should cut off with the excess of spices and harmful oils, used when cooking. You should restrict yourself from using alcohol, nicotine, pickles, red pepper, meat and any kind of strong food that might be hard for digestion. Food must be taken at regular intervals, and you should try to include fresh fruits, nuts, seeds and veggies in it. Taking curd and cheese sure helps during gastric problems.

Water should not be drunk while eating, and you should not sleep after eating instantly. When condition is too grave, a bit of fasting for 1-2 days will help. This will give rest to the stomach and give time to the inflammation to collapse.

Some of the other food recipes that are good for gastric problems are taking coconut water. You can actually drink it all day. Rice porridge’s some time before meals helps treat acute gastritis. You can also drink potato juice 2-3 cups daily before meals. These are known to provide effective results in case of gastritis.

Along with all these, you should try as much as possible to avoid hard labor, whether mental or physical. Just give your body rest. If you can, apply warm compress on your stomach. This is best done in an empty stomach. And involve yourself in daily exercise, mainly breathing exercises. Those are quite salutary in these cases.
