  1. Hi everyone,

    I am quite well read in most medical matters and am amazed by the different
    opinions on ulcer type diets. I have read many inconsistencies in ulcer
    diets over the years, including those published by doctors, nutritionists,
    etc., so forget asking my gastroenterologist what he thinks (it would just
    be his opinion which is probably outdated and based on where and when he
    went to medical school and where he did his residency).

    There is a book called "Doctor, what should I eat?" (1995 - written by a
    renown internist named Isador Rosenfeld). He has written several other
    medical books, and has many other doctors helping with the editing, and he
    had at least one nutritionist help with the diet book. He has a few pages
    on peptic ulcers and basically addresses the Helicobacter pylori issue and
    says the old rules about bland diets and small meals/snacks are passé and
    its okay to eat/drink just about anything (except milk) and drink alcohol in
    moderation (only in between flare-ups). He does indicate that the bad
    players for an acute attack are milk, cigarettes, alcohol, and coffee, and
    that salt and refined sugars are also detrimental. He also says that bland
    diets do not help ulcers at any stage (and may even have a negative effect),
    and that spicy foods will neither cause nor aggravate an ulcer. He mentions
    that citric acid has no effect on an ulcer one way or another (I don't agree
    with that), and recommends bananas, lots of fiber and yogurt (which has live
    cultures that can kill H pylori bacteria - but naturally if you have H
    pylori you need antibiotics and probably one of the prescription acid
    blockers). He caveats everything by saying to avoid any food or liquid if
    you know it causes you distress.

    Now having said that (basically for background information), I would like to
    ask a question about carbonated beverages that do not have caffeine, or
    citric acid, or alcohol (or very little alcohol in the case of non-alcoholic
    beer). I have read in many places (Dr. Rosenfeld doesn't address this
    specifically) that carbonated beverages are bad for ulcer type diseases, but
    there is usually not an explanation why, and they don't address the
    beverages that are caffeine/citric/alcohol free.

    I understand that caffeine and alcohol are supposed to stimulate acid
    production and alcohol may also be an irritant. So I would like to know if
    current thinking considers it okay to drink a carbonated beverage with out
    caffeine, or citric acid, or alcohol (like some kind of sparkling water, or
    non-alcoholic beer) if you have an ongoing ulcer, erosion, etc.

    I understand that a bubbly type drink may make you burp/belch once in a
    while, but I don't consider that very detrimental to your erosion, or ulcer
    (unless of course it is a serious flare-up that may require surgery, etc.).

    So, in summary I would like to know if it is considered okay or not okay to
    drink a few non-alcoholic beers, and why is it bad if not okay (i.e. please
    be specific as to what the damaging "vehicle" may be, other than burping
    once in a while). Thanks for your time in reading this.

    Sincerely.Pete

    I suffered for years with ulcers and GERD til high dose oral antibiotics for
    late Lyme disease cured it.

    My bottom line is, if it hurts your stomach, don't eat or drink it. You'll
    know which things make it worse by how they make you feel, even with acid
    controllers.

    That said, ulcers are curable, so don't be planning a life around eating just
    for them!

  3. I have a high regard for Dr. Rosenfeld. In fact, he appears on Fox
    News Sunday at around 10:30 AM ET. I would love to have him as my
    family physician. His book, "Breakthrough Health" is very
    informative.

    CO2 dissolved in H2O forms a weak acid, Carbonic acid (H2CO3). I have
    found that anything bubbly, whether alcoholic or non-alcoholic, does
    give problems to my esophageal sphincter. At least until the bubbles
    subside. There may be other reactions, but this is the one most
    predominant to me. I generally don't drink alcohol because of the
    other detrimental effects - lots of calories!

    Here's a quick definition of the acid...

  4. Ive been to many doctors on heart and ulcer issues etc... Ive
    had to cure myself.

    The basic info is out there.

    as you age digestive enzyme production drops off radically,
    the more acid is required to digest the food..that chews up
    the stomach lining...H pylori bacteria then eat holes in it

    1. Get the H pylori handled with anti biotics.
    2. take zantac or what works for you to heal the stomach
    lining

    later. Watch your symtoms closely. Enzymes over a
    wounded stomach may digest yer stomach lining... you have to
    be very observant on all this...and give it time.
    Raw Vegitable juice is always superb however. get a book on
    it

    3. Take vegitable derived enymes before and after each meal
    (works wonders)
    4. Eat gently until this all heals... yogurt is good.
    5. After you are all healed, watch closely..take zantac and
    anti acid tabs
    at first sign of acid. keep on the digestive enzymes
    for life

    6. drink 16 oz of fresh made raw vegitable juice daily (make
    it yourself, buy a book
    on the subject), avoid processed foods, especially
    breads, frozen and canned.

    This protocol will revive the dead. Anyone interested in my
    killer heart revitalization tactic may ask and I will post
    it...same for the mental rejuvination issues (caused by
    amyloid build ups in the nervous system)

    Quoted message said:

    that citric acid has no effect on an ulcer one way or


    another (I don't agree

    Quoted message said:

    with that), and recommends bananas, lots of fiber and yogurt


    (which has live

    Quoted message said:

    cultures that can kill H pylori bacteria - but naturally if

    Now having said that (basically for background information),


    I would like to

    Quoted message said:

    ask a question about carbonated beverages that do not have


    caffeine, or

    Quoted message said:

    citric acid, or alcohol (or very little alcohol in the case


    of non-alcoholic

    Quoted message said:

    beer). I have read in many places (Dr. Rosenfeld doesn't


    address this

    Quoted message said:

    specifically) that carbonated beverages are bad for ulcer


    type diseases, but

    Quoted message said:

    there is usually not an explanation why, and they don't


    address the

    Quoted message said:

    beverages that are caffeine/citric/alcohol free.

    I understand that caffeine and alcohol are supposed to


    stimulate acid

    Quoted message said:

    production and alcohol may also be an irritant. So I would


    like to know if

    Quoted message said:

    current thinking considers it okay to drink a carbonated


    beverage with out

    Quoted message said:

    caffeine, or citric acid, or alcohol (like some kind of


    sparkling water, or

    Quoted message said:

    non-alcoholic beer) if you have an ongoing ulcer, erosion,


    etc.

    Quoted message said:


    I understand that a bubbly type drink may make you


    burp/belch once in a

    Quoted message said:

    while, but I don't consider that very detrimental to your


    erosion, or ulcer

    Quoted message said:

    (unless of course it is a serious flare-up that may require


    surgery, etc.).

    Quoted message said:


    So, in summary I would like to know if it is considered okay


    or not okay to

    Quoted message said:

    drink a few non-alcoholic beers, and why is it bad if not


    okay (i.e. please

    Quoted message said:

    be specific as to what the damaging "vehicle" may be, other

    I'm interested in your "killer heart revitalization tactic",


    and

    Quoted message said:

    "mental rejuvenation tactics".

    For the heart search chelation therapy... its required in
    Germany before heart surgery.. it works about 90% of the
    time...frowoned on by the AMA and US drug companies as it
    costs them hundreds of billions in business if were to become
    common in the US... you must be bright enough to do your own
    research and get past the trash jobs... Stanford University
    released its findiings in approx 1992 saying it worked very
    very well... I can attest to that..about 75 treatments over 20
    years at 100 dollars each, an IV drip...takes 3 hours...edta
    acid, it disolves the calcium from plaques that form in the
    ateries.

    Its works well, for me about an 80% improvement from near bed
    ridden and killer chest pains to working 5 hours a day easily
    with no pain...but it was not a perfect solution.

    I then added Heart Technology product from
    www.herbaladvantage.com talk to steve. That provided no
    effect I could notice in how I felt but I soon found myself
    doing 8 hour days in circumstances that would have produced a
    trace of chest pains previously. Read about it at the web
    site..its from Dr. washis name.. the vitamin C advocate.

    Concurrent with this over the last 7 years I had accidentally
    discovered amyloidosis... that is now being recognised as not
    uncommon but almost 100 percent common as you age past 90...
    I know a lot about this, more than most researchers. I think
    its over 50% common at age 60... amyloids are sticky
    substances that clogg up the nervous system and organs. My
    long blow by blow account can be found in a series of 50
    articles found thusly:

    www.google.com click on the 'groups' tab

    a blue hyperlink will appear on the right.. 'advanced group
    search'

    Click on that.

    The fill out ONLY two boxes in that selection:

    Author = phil scott
    subject = any single one of the following words, not in
    combination...
    'amyloid, amyloids, neuron, ganglia, microglia, basal,
    immune, reaction,'

    read these in date order.

    I am currently aged 63, and racing motorcyles again on the
    dirt ovals (600 cc's)..I can work 10 hour days without getting
    sore. My extended comments and links and research is in
    these articles.

    I dont argue these points or defend my experience, there close
    to 200,000 doctors with no clue in these areas, and a trillion
    dollar pharmaceutical industry that hates these notions with a
    passion and sets hords of morons loose on the web to try to
    obliterate interest in these options with false charges etc.

    I dont sell any products... you can get chelated at many
    different places, same with the other stuff. and I do not
    recommend anyone follow the de-amyloid protocol I used, it was
    nearly fatal for me, and Stanfords test on a similar approach
    killed a batch of the trial subjects... but soon there will
    be a viable protocol from the pharmaceutical companies that
    will work and that they will make money on... human kind is
    lucky these days.

    I posted only my own observations, mix of resullts and
    research links.

    Consider also that statins can cause ulcers.

    amazin those folks .... hu Zee? You should repost your
    '[censored] parade' article twice a year or so, it will fade
    from public awarness unless you do

    Phil and Zee, all those reactions were supposed to be kept secret. Nobody
    should know about those things. You really have a good investigative
    reporter. If the public were to know then nobody would take them. I wonder
    if the doctors really know that they cause all those side effects.
    Wait a minute, that webpage is from the manufacturer Pfizer on Lipitor. They
    can not be trusted and don't believe anything they say. Please include that
    in your [censored] parade. What kind of [censored] is that when they tell you
    not to take it if you liver problems or a women who is pregnant and even go
    as far to say that it does not prevent heart disease or heart attacks. What
    a bunch of [censored] as we all know it does.

    I think that one of the reasons that there is such conflicting
    information is that we are all different biologically - hence
    different foods may be beneficial for one person and detrimental to
    another.

    The key is to determine which foods are healthy for me (or in this
    case you). The key I identified is blood type. Blood type is actually
    immune system type, and its genetic code also influences digestive
    chemistry. Most of the IgA immune system is located in the GI tract.

    It is a somewhat well established fact that persons with blood group O
    are more suseptible to H.pylori.

    So, the bottom line as to whether non-alchoholic beer is OK for you
    would depend on your blood type. Of course, there are many other foods
    that you may wish to consider eating or avoiding based on your blood
    type to help the ulcers heal. The damage caused by non-compatible
    foods ranges from ulceration to damage of the cilia and micro-cilia
    (Crohn's and Celiac Disease), diahrehea, all forms of upset-stomach,
    GERD, etc.

    Hi everyone,

    I am quite well read in most medical matters and am amazed by the different
    opinions on ulcer type diets. I have read many inconsistencies in ulcer
    diets over the years, including those published by doctors, nutritionists,
