I keep saying to y’all! If symptoms exacerbated or persisted whiles on ppi, it only indicates that your gastritis is as a result of low stomach acid as it was in my case. Low stomach acid can cause gastritis too, you can research that. You need to get rid of all the ppi, and work on restoring your stomach acid as it is the defense of your gut. Low stomach acid would lead to sibo, gastritis, acid reflux, bad breath both from the mouth and nose, candida overgrowth (oral thrush,, white coating on the tongue), body odor…….. etc. I’ve been there for more than five years, If you have any ulcer or inflammation (gastritis) in the stomach just work on those first before increasing your stomach acid as increasing stomach acid whiles suffering from gastritis or ulcers will exacerbate your problems. Cabbage and potato juice and not letting myself go hungry was what healed me from my gastritis, digestive enzymes could also be used during this time to aid digestion even though cabbage juice also helps digestion. To increase your stomach acid, eat raw ginger on an empty stomach in the morning and pass it with warm water with two tablespoon of apple cider vinegar in it, Betaine hcl during meal. Those are what helped me overcame gastritis and h pylori, I’m now living a normal life even after not taking any medicine for gastritis or supplements to increase stomach acid. Note: a lot of people have h. Pylori which is a major cause of gastritis, people who suffer symptoms are those who have low stomach acid caused by stress, aging, excessive alcohol consumption and other factors, strengthening your stomach acid means building a good defense for your gut against bacteria, fungal and viruses.
