H Pylori Treatment | Herbal Medicine | Grocare

In this article, we will talk about h Pylori treatment by Grocare – you can see more details here www.grocare.com/diagnose/h-pylori . Features of this treatment are:

What is H. pylori?

pylori (Helicobacter pylori) is an illness caused by Bacteria that attack the lining of the stomach. H. pylori bacteria co-evolved with humans for approximately 58,000 years, with strains that predominate within certain regions of the world. Many H. pylori infections are considered harmless, beneficial even, but the bacteria can cause stomach ulcers and damage to the small intestines.

pylori bacteria are essentially spiral-shaped germs that enter your body. They are passed from person to person in saliva, fecal matter, and vomit. Normally your immune system would fight them off, but in some cases, they enter the intestines and stay there, for years at a time. If they remain in the body they cause infections, which can sometimes lead to stomach cancer.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), state that these bacteria are responsible for up to 80 percent of gastric ulcers and 90 percent of duodenal ulcers.

They may also cause other stomach ailments, such as:

  • Bloating
  • Nausea
  • Burning sensations in the abdomen
  • A loss of appetite
  • Frequent belching
  • Irritable bowel syndrome
  • Unexplained weight loss

Approximately two thirds of the world’s population has H. pylori in their bodies, but it only makes some people sick, or cause them to display symptoms. The harmful bacteria is often passed through contaminated water or food, though doctors have taken some time to understand how H. pylori could cause bleeding stomach ulcers (sores) and even cancer. The main concern is that the bacteria can alter its host (where it is living) and alter their immunity.

As the bacteria continue to grow and flourish in their host they cause a number of additional health concerns, creating bacterial cytotoxins and polymorphisms – in simply English – mutated bugs and toxic residue of their life-cycles.

Unlike most bacterial pathogens, H. pylori typically colonizes the host for life unless specific treatment is given. Though this bacteria can be harmless to some, there are a list of diseases that are worsened by H. pylori’s presence.

 

What Causes H. pylori? 

The source of H. pylori is still unclear. There are no formal recommendations from the CDC to prevent it other than encouraging you to practice good hygiene by frequently washing your hands and properly preparing your food.

How is H. pylori Normally Treated?

Though our bodies contain a host of both good and bad bacteria, H. pylori is often treated with antibiotics in order to lessen its damaging effects on the stomach and intestines. These antibiotics can cause several negative side effects and further health problems, however, including:

  • Nausea
  • Diarrhea
  • Loss of appetite
  • Antibiotic resistance

Most antibiotic treatments fail to kill off all the H. pylori bacteria, though, and over time they simply recolonize, or grow back. You can think of it like treating other pests in your home, like roaches. If you don’t kill them all, and a few remain, they can reproduce and soon you’ll have more roaches again.

Antibiotics often used to treat H. pylori include:

  • amoxicillin
  • tetracycline
  • metronidazole
  • clarithromycin

But there are many more.

Sadly, if the first round of antibiotics doesn’t get rid of 90 percent of the H. pylori bacteria, your doctor will usually prescribe a second round, which rarely kills off the germs completely, and you have begun a furious cycle of creating antibiotic resistance in your body.

Pylori and Cancer

pylori bacteria in their worst forms, can cause certain types of stomach cancer, and gastric cancers.

As cancer.org details,

“. . . to survive in the harsh, acidic environment of the stomach, H. pylori secretes an enzyme called urease, which converts to the chemical urea to ammonia. The production of ammonia around H. pylori neutralizes the acidity of the stomach, making it more hospitable for the bacterium. In addition, the helical [spiral] shape of H. pylori allows it to burrow into the mucus layer, which is less acidic than the inside space, or lumen, of the stomach. H. pylori can also attach to the cells that line the inner surface of the stomach.”

It is in this way that H. pylori begins to interfere with the normal immune response which is also responsible for preventing the mutation of normal cells into cancerous cells.

  1. pylori has been named as a carcinogen and can greatly increase the risk for gastric cancer and of gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma (cancer of the gastric lining).

Gastric cancer is the second most common cause of cancer-related deaths in the world, killing approximately 738,000 people

Though not every case of H. pylori will develop into a gastric or stomach cancer, its presence greatly contributes to altered immunity and the chance for these types of cancer grow larger without treating the infection.

Antibiotic Resistance 

Due to the overwhelming incidence of antibiotic resistance in many of the world’s populations, especially in Western nations, natural cures for bacterial infections have grown more popular.

In fact, a Harvard Health publication states that antibiotic-resistant bacteria sicken more than two million Americans each year and account for at least 23,000 deaths. The cause is an overuse of antibiotics – including those that are often prescribed for H. pylori.

You can see a petri dish which Harvard scientists set up in the video below that gives an incredible visual of how antibiotic resistance develops:

This phenomenon of antibiotic resistance is only one part of the problem. What happens when antibiotics are given to ‘cure’ a bacterial infection in the body is the immune system becomes compromised because ‘good’ bacteria are also killed in the process.

Why You Need Good Bacteria Badly

These good bacteria make up almost 80 percent of the immune response. The reason we don’t get sick every single time we swallow a bad germ is because our healthy gut flora (good germ colonies) prevent those bad germs from taking over.

A thin lining of epithelial cells form a chemical barrier, which basically tell bad bacteria, “you aren’t welcome here.” If we kill all those good guys off, H. pylori and other bad germs can move in and make themselves at home in our bodies.

Doctors also typically prescribe an anti-acid medicine for those suffering from an H.pylori infection but this doesn’t really address the root cause, and can actually damage the body further.

The Problem with Proton Pump inhibitors (PPI).

“Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are a group of drugs whose main action is a pronounced and long-lasting reduction of gastric acid production. This is a common anti-acid drug that will be given to people suffering from H. pylori, or stomach ulcers. Within the class of medications, there is no clear evidence that one agent works better than another.

They are prescribed mainly for treatment of the following:

  • Acid reflux
  • GERD
  • Gastro intestinal disease
  • Acidity
  • Hiatal hernia

In fact, there are more than 16,000 articles in medical literature suggesting that suppressing stomach acid will not prevent stomach ulcers, or address the real problem.

These medicines only temporarily treat the symptoms, without addressing the cause. Prescription medicines like Nexium, Prilosec, and Prevacid were originally designed to treat a very limited range of severe problems. They don’t address a bacterial infection or poor gut health, which is the root problem which must be detected and corrected.

Alternative Methods of Treating H. pylori

Natural remedies become even more important in light of these facts, when you are trying to cure an H. pylori infection.

Diet

There is scientific evidence suggesting that diet can greatly deter H. pylori from reproducing. Specific foods can help to balance the good and bad bacteria in the intestinal tract, making it an inhospitable place for H. pylori and other undesirable bacteria to grow.

Diet, no matter what treatments you decide to use – a conventional method utilizing antibiotics or Grocare’s all natural treatment which we will discuss in a moment – is absolutely vital in curing a bacterial infection of any kind.

Gut health is closely related to immune health, and immune health is all about what kinds of foods you put into your body

These foods include:

  • Honey and Propolis – People who eat honey and propolis are less prone to pylori colonization of their guts. Manuka honey seems to have the most antibacterial properties.

  • Broccoli Sprouts – Research published in the journal, Digestive Diseases and Sciences found that seven of nine patients (78%) who ate broccoli sprouts twice daily for a week were tested negative for pylori in their stool.

  • Probiotics – eating probiotics that occur naturally in foods like yoghurt or kefir reduce the overall pathogenic effect of any bacterial infection, including pylori.

  • Prebiotics – Prebiotics are related to probiotics. The more prebiotics you eat, which occur naturally in many foods, the more “food” healthy probiotics have to eat. Some common prebiotic foods that support gut health include raw Jerusalem artichoke, chicory root, dandelion greens, onions, wheat bran, bananas, asparagus, garlic and leeks.

  • Green tea – A 2009 study on mice showed that green tea can help kill and slow the growth of Helicobacter bacteria. Green tea is also good for preventing inflammation, which negatively affects our healthy gut flora.

  • Olive Oil – Studies have shown that organic extra virgin olive oil helps to eradicate the presence of pylori bacteria.

  • Licorice Root – Licorice has been used as a remedy for stomach upset and ulcers for hundreds, if not thousands of years. One study found that the root doesn’t kill the bacteria directly, but prevents it from sticking to cell walls, which makes it easier for your body to dispose of.
  • Turmeric – This amazing herb, the root or rhizome turmeric has been show to stop H. pylori and other bacteria that can make people extremely ill due to its natural antibacterial and antiviral effects.

  • Probiotics– Probiotic supplement can also be taken if you don’t get enough probiotics from the foods you eat. Probiotics help replenish good bacteria, and can reduce your risk of developing a yeast overgrowth. Good bacteria like Lactobacillus acidophilus seems to provide the best results.

Proper Sleep

Many people have heard of the gut-brain connection, but what about the gut-sleep connection? There are somewhere around 100 trillion microbes living in our bodies. The largest collection of them are found in our intestines – that’s why you hear the term “gut health” so often. It is in our intestines that trillions of microscopic organisms live and die, while also exerting a profound effect on our own health.

Strangely, these microbes behave differently when we are tired and worn out from a lack of sleep. Our mood, sleep-wake cycles, hormones, stress levels, and immunity are all affected by sleep. When we don’t get enough of it, we can’t fight bacterial or other infections like H. pylori.

Treatment with UltraViolet Light

Certain strains of H. pylori have been proven to be sensitive to light. Called phototherapy, this treatment targets the unwanted bacteria by shining ultraviolet light on the stomach. This can be a much safer option than antibiotics.

Re-Acidifying the Digestive Tract

Though your doctor will likely prescribe you an anti-acid medication if you have an H. pylori infection, this is the wrong thing to do. Those stomach acids are extremely important so that your body can metabolize the food you eat.

More importantly, low stomach acid has been linked to the growth of H. pylori!

Two Australian scientists, Barry Marshall and Robin Warren, won a Nobel Prize for discovering that the bacteria plays a role in the formation of gastric ulcers (peptic ulcers) and chronic gastritis. It’s since been established that H. pylori is associated with not only ulcers but also with stomach cancer and gastric lymphoma.

One way to make sure you keep your stomach acid relatively high is to eat the proper foods, and eat in a timely manner. That’s because every time you eat a meal, your stomach is primed to make more acid, in preparation for digestion of that food. Eat smaller meals around the clock, or a large breakfast and smaller dinner so that you are not expecting your stomach to go on full ‘digest’ mode when you are about to go to sleep at night.

When you sleep at night the body cleans house – it doesn’t need to worry itself with the digestion of food.

You also need to stop taking medications that reduce acid in the stomach. These may help you feel better temporarily, but in the long term, you are only making the root cause worse. You can also avoid the painful side effects that many of these medicines can cause as well as damage to your liver and other organs.

Treatment with Grocare India’s 100% Natural Herbal Support for H. pylori Infections

One of Grocare India’s herbal treatments will also help to cure H. pylori infections without side effects, while also addressing the root cause of the problem.

 

XEMBRAN

First, you will want to get rid of this irritating and drug resistant bacteria H Pylori.
