How to lose weight if you have gastritis




Dr. Salomon Jakubowicz

I care for a patient with gastritis who wanted to lose weight. When I said I acidity taking Omeprazole controlled knew it was an easy patient. Only asked if he felt tired and I measured the magnesium.

Slow metabolism because of Omeprazole

By eliminating stomach acid decreases magnesium. Thus the sugar from food can not enter muscle and fat is stored in the abdomen.

How to cure gastritis without taking Omeprazole

Before performing expensive tests, it is faster to address the four most common causes of heartburn, stomach pain and gas.

Most patients with gastritis not even know your diagnosis. While taking omeprazole, walk with her swollen stomach among physicians who have made all kinds of diagnoses: IBS, reflux, fatty liver, ulcer, uric acid and triglycerides, gallbladder problems and have even tell who invent these symptoms.

First it was stress, then discovered the bacteria H. pylori, but recently there are five common causes. Gastritis improvement to solve all these causes together.

Foods that cause gastritis

Although good diet, sugar-free sweets are often the cause of gastritis and few doctors know.

The sugarless candy (gum, chocolate, ice cream) produce the same effect of foods rich in fiber integral.

As with fiber, sweeteners isomalt, sorbitol and maltitol are not absorbed by the body, to occupy space in the stomach, causing a feeling of fullness that reduces appetite.

Diseases that cause gastritis

They also often suffer from gastritis when the door is not closed stomach after eating. The insulin resistance decreases nitric oxide allowing food to be returned (GERD). A stomach so elastic or fullness leads to weight gain.

Intolerance to foods that cause gastritis

Symptoms of gastritis do not begin immediately after eating sandwich, cookie, cereals, chocolate, coffee, or yogurt, but after the next meal. So it is difficult to recognize the cause. As the symptoms develop so long after, no one thinks at breakfast if symptoms associated with food lunch.

What these foods have in common? Lactose. Skim milk is good for weight loss, but at age 25 begin to lose the enzyme to digest it and over time symptoms appear lactose intolerant. Ask any pharmacy a lactase supplement with 9,000 IU and take every time you eat a food with milk.

Those with gastritis should take lactosérica protein with water or lactose-free milk instead of skim milk but even better is to take it along with the supplement of lactase.

Other common causes of gastritis

All patients to start taking Metformin for weight loss or prevent diabetes, feel sick to your stomach. It is best to start with a low dose (500 mg). Giardia is also very often the cause of the discomfort and with a single dose of Tinidazole is enough to heal.

Medical recommendations

By suspending the omeprazole, the acid in the stomach comes back worse than before. It is best to cure the cause.
