| Antacids
may be your first 'line of defence'...
... but they don't fix ulcers!
One of the first ulcer
medications most people will try is an antacid. Most of us
hope that this will cure any suspected ulcer and that an expensive
trip to the doctor won't be necessary. We can live in hope,
but this course of action is definitely not going to fix any
ulcer, let alone heartburn or
acid reflux!
When antacids fail,
and you decide to move on to your doctor who finds you have
an H. pylori infection, he will no doubt prescribe a Triple
Therapy for you.
Be warned that Triple
Therapy has an extremely
difficult treatment regime to stick to, and the failure
rates are high because of this.
By comparison, the natural solution we recommend
is much easier to take , and it has no negative side effects.
We strongly recommend this as the safest and most effective
solution to treat your ulcers through the removal of H. pylori.
Remember that most doctors will not recommend natural remedies
as an option, simply because doctors in general are unaware
of any effective natural remedies.

Conventional Medications
used in Drug therapy

Popular prescription

The conventional ulcer medications
prescribed by doctors and physicians to make up common ulcer
medications Triple and Quadruple therapies are all chemical
based drugs.
And they are all aimed at eradicating
H. pylori - the main
cause of stomach ulcers.
Doctors generally do not even consider
natural remedies as credible ulcer medications. Most times
they are just not aware that natural remedies are actually
safer to use and can be even more effective than the drugs
they continue to prescribe.
Saying that, there is no doubt that
the traditional best-selling ulcer medications in this market,
like Nexium, Prilosec, Zantac and Tagamet, all offer
excellent relief of ulcer and heartburn symptoms to you.
The problem with these medications
lies in the relief of symptoms only. Taken alone, these
drugs can only suppress the symptoms and don't actually cure
the root of the problem.
That is where Triple and Quadruple
Therapies kick in - for these therapies to work you have to
take 3 or 4 different ulcer medications at the same time,
usually over 20 pills per day! These therapies have a good
chance of success if you can withstand the side effects.
If you can't handle the negative
side effects, you stand up to a 70% chance of failure!
This means that 7 in every 10 people have to abandon the
treatment because of the side effects.
Remember that your doctor is unaware
of natural remedies, so you are pretty much stuck with taking
these drugs for as long as you have an ulcer. And that is
going to be a long time if you keep taking drugs that just
keep relieving the symptoms. Stop the treatment and the symptoms
will return - it's a vicious cycle!
You see, the relief is what hooks
people into continually taking these medications, and
that is great for the recurring business you give the drug
companies. But having to continually relieve symptoms with
chemical substances is not very good for your body, or for
your pocket!
We recently heard from a patient
that she had spent over USD$35000.00 (that's right, Thirty
Five Thousand Dollars!!) over a period of 8 years and she
got nowhere. We are happy to say that after following the
advice given in The H. pylori Report, she is now completely
healed.

Acid Blockers
- and the negative effects
they aren't telling you about!
Acid Blockers are used in Quadruple therapy to protect the stomach lining against NSAID's - they work by reducing the amount of acid your stomach
produces. Sounds like good logic, but watch out for these
side effects!!
Blocking or reducing the production
of your stomach acid can actually worsen your existing
condition. Normal levels of stomach acid are absolutely
necessary to digest proteins properly and to allow your body
to absorb vitamins and minerals.
"By
blocking or reducing the production of stomach acid.....
.....you reduce the effectiveness of your digestive system"
When there is not enough stomach
acid, proteins and vitamins from the food you eat cannot be
absorbed properly, and this can leave you undernourished.
And if you are undernourished your
immune system will break down, making you more susceptible
to all sorts of diseases. Stomach acid also protects you by
killing fungi, bacteria, and viruses found in the food you
are eating.
By blocking your stomach acid you
are taking your natural defense systems down, leaving yourself
wide open to all those harmful fungi, bacteria, and viruses!
So if you're taking any one of these
prescribed ulcer drugs you could unconsciously be making yourself
more susceptible to food poisoning, parasites, and other stomach
problems, including more ulcers.
"Antacids
are one of the most dangerous treatments
for stomach ulcers....bottom line - avoid them! "
Antacid medications
Many people rely on antacids, assuming that too much stomach
acid results in ulcers. Many antacid medications designed
for "too much acid" can actually add fuel to the fire.
Do you know the antacid
called Alka-Seltzer?
Get this! It contains aspirin which is known to cause ulcers
if used over prolonged periods. Because Alka-Seltzer is NEVER
going to fix ANY ulcer, and you are enjoying the temporary
relief every time you pop one, you may end up taking this
antacid for a prolonged period of time. In this way the aspirin
found in Alka-Seltzer can actually cause stomach ulcers.
Here's another one - Tums
This source of relief contains another common antacid ingredient,
calcium carbonate, which can cause constipation. That's not
all - 3 to 4 hours after you take it, calcium carbonate raises
acid levels by stimulating gastric secretion. So here we have
an antacid that gives very short term relief, and then causes
an increase in stomach acid - sounds like a good time to have
another Tums? And then another, and another....get the picture?
Antacids
can start a vicious cycle of pain and relief....without ever
fixing the problem.
So
what are the BEST ulcer medications?
First of all, any
good treatment MUST work!
Second, it must work without
causing any negative side effects. These should be your own
minimum requirements when seeking effective treatment, but added to this should be something else that most people forget about - published clinical and scientific proof!
You may have already
spent several hundred dollars trying to get rid
of your stomach ulcer, and chances are you have probably
already suffered from a range of nasty side effects from
your medication. Lots of prescriptions later, no improvement,
and your doctor has run out of options.... does
this sound familiar?
If this describes where
you are at right now (or the direction in which you are heading
towards), then you may be thinking that you are stuck with
a major problem....but the fact is that it is possible to
naturally remove all traces of H. pylori from your digestive
system, without any negative effects.
