Book Description
Peptic ulcers occur when acid in the digestive tract eats away at the inner surface of the stomach (gastric ulcer) or small intestine (duodenal ulcer). The acid can create a painful open sore that may bleed. The complications are anemia due to internal bleeding, peritonitis due to gastric perforation, scarring and narrowing of the stomach and gastric cancer. Symptoms are burning and cramping abdominal pain that may be worse between meals and at night, feeling of fullness, bloating and belching, intolerance to fatty foods, heartburn, nausea and vomiting, a coated tongue, vomiting of red or black blood, black or bloody stools, trouble breathing, feeling faint, weight loss, loss of appetite and a vitamin B12 deficiency and iron deficiency caused by bleeding from the diseased gastric mucosa. Common causes of peptic ulcers include an infection with the bacterium helicobacter pylori, certain medications, smoking, alcohol, too much stomach acid, mental and emotional stress, kidney diseases and food that is too cold, spicy or hot. In this homeopathic and naturopathic adviser, I will give you recommendations how to treat and prevent peptic ulcer with Homeopathy, Schuessler salts (also named cell salts, tissue salts) and herbal tinctures. I will present you the most proven homeopathic remedies and Schuessler salts, including the appropriate potency and dosage. Naturopathy works holistically. It does not treat single symptoms only. It treats the whole body, mind and soul. I wish you much success, joy in life and especially your health.
