subject: Ulcers Healing Naturally [print this page] I learned ulcers do not come from stress and diet but stress and diet do make them worse. The Center for Disease Control (CDC) website reads ulcers are actually caused by a bacterium called h-pylori. The CDC recommends ulcers are cured with a one or two-week course of antibiotics. Sometimes ulcer sufferers have no immunity or a weak immunity to the h-pylori bacteria and experience a re-infection after a short period of time. So the natural cure listed above is may be helpful you even if you choose the antibiotic therapy. Also, this combination of natural remedies for stomach ulcers helps create an environment which discourages the h-pylori bacteria from growing and boosts the immune response to the h-pylori infection.
