the treatment for ulcer in stomach / gastritis consists of controlled diet and medical management. Diet include lowering of salt & sour food, along with proper timning which goes without saying. Medicine like Yastimadhu / Atimadhura / licorice is a awonder drug as it reduced the intensity of the pitta along with reparing of the damaged mucosa. Sukumara Ghrita works wondres in healing ulcer.

Ulcers are generally caused by vitiated pitta. These cause burning and discomfort in the stomach and esophagus, usually due to untimely acid secretion in the stomach. Pitta causes irritation of the delicate lining of stomach. Also, normally, there is a layer of kapha (mucus) that protects the inner lining of stomach. It prevents your own pitta digesting your own tissue. Sometimes this protective lining is insufficient at places causing the mucosa to get ulcerated. We treat this condition with a mineral called suvarnagairik usually taken with gum acacia dissolved in water four times a day. Gum is sticky in nature and has very good ulcer healing properties. This replaces the protective mucus cover of the internal lining of the stomach (mucosa). However, if suvarnagairik is not available, you can use gum acacia only. You may take this 1 gram four times a day. cm WWW.AYURVEDICRX.COM

What are some gentle curative plants/herbs that you can use to treat or calm stomach ulcers? It’s for my older aunt who has been suffering from severe ulcers and is seeking an alternative to strong pharmaceutical meds. Does Una de Gato help in any way?
