6 Foods & Herbs That Inhibit H Pylori

Triple therapy antibiotics that are typically used to treat H pylori are declining in effectiveness. Whereas treatments used to yield 80-90% success rates, some studies published in the medical journal Helicobacter are now showing cure rates of only 50%. It appears as though the H pylori bacteria are becoming resistant to the antibiotics, especially Clarithromycin.

In addition, the medications used in triple therapy also cause very unpleasant side effects for some people and may also lead to yeast and fungal overgrowth, particularly with the Candida organism, which can lead to further digestive symptoms.

Many people are now seeking natural alternatives to triple therapy as a result of the decline in antibiotic efficacy. However there are many spurious and false claims from websites claiming that they have the best solution. In fact, only a few herbs and supplements are effective against H pylori and they need to be used in the right way otherwise they may not be effective.

It is also very important to understand that ‘inhibit’ does not mean ‘eradicate’. Just because a claim is made that something ‘inhibits’ H pylori does not mean that it will solve the problem!

#1 – Mastic Gum

Mastic Gum is a very good supplement to use against H pylori. Studies have shown that it not only inhibits H pylori, it also kills it. It should be used for 60-90 days and combined with dietary changes to reduce inflammation in the stomach and intestine. If the diet changes are not made, it does not work as effectively. It is also very important to purchase high quality mastic gum.

#2 – Matula Herbal Formula

Matula is, in my experience, the most effective herbal supplement for cleansing the stomach. Stool tests have shown time and time again that H pylori is no longer present after a 30-day course of Matula. Because Matula works so quickly it is actually the least expensive option.

#3 – Olive Oil

The polyphenols in olive oil have been shown to have anti-H pylori action although there is no evidence that olive oil alone can completely eradicate the bacteria. Because olive oil is generally a healthy oil, it is wise to use it regularly in one’s diet.

#4 – Cabbage Juice

Vitamin U, which is not actually a vitamin at all, is a component of cabbage juice that has been shown in Russia to help heal ulcers. It is possible to juice cabbage using a vegetable juicer.

#5 – Coconut Oil

Coconut oil is an excellent anti-microbial agent. It contains lauric acid, which can break down the cell membranes of bacteria and parasites. It is also a wonderful oil to cook with and although it contains saturated fats, the structure of the fatty acids helps support the thyroid gland, improve metabolism and helps people lose weight.

#6 – DGL

DGL is an abbreviation for deglycerrhized licorice root. It protects the stomach lining and has shown some anti-microbial action against H pylori. Taken on its own, however, it is unlikely that DGL can defeat H pylori.

Using these foods and herbs in the correct manner can inexpensively help reduce and eliminate the symptoms associated with H pylori in a matter of 5-60 days, with no side effects.
