Stomach Problems
Sara says: Do you have stomach ulcers or gastroesophageal reflux problems? Being on prolonged medication sometimes can worsen your stomach condition as the drugs can be quite harsh for the stomach wall lining, not to mention other side effects. It would also cause a chaotic situation with the gastrointestinal flora. First of all, I would suggest you visit your local health store and ask for a high quality probiotics. Enquire how to take it and the dosage (although overdosage problem is rare.) Go on a course of probiotics that will help stabilize your stomach condition. This is IMPORTANT. Avoid fried, oily and spicy food for a period until you get much better. These types of foods are acidic and aggravates your stomach condition. Eat more fresh fruits and vegetables. Best juices to help expedite the stomach healing would be carrot and cabbage juices. In fact, it is very safe to drink almost any kinds of fresh juices, avoiding citrus fruits for now. Hope this helps. Get well and come back to share your recovery! Sara |
