Can Xianlingzi treat stomach problems?

Patient's question:

I have superficial gastritis and stomach problems. I heard that Shenlingzi can cure stomach problems, so I bought some to try.

Doctor's answer:

Hello. Gastritis is a chronic superficial inflammation of the gastric mucosa, and it is the most common type of chronic gastritis. The inflammation is often most prominent in the antrum of the stomach and is usually diffuse. Endoscopic examination reveals congestion, edema, and petechial hemorrhage of the gastric mucosa, along with yellowish-white mucous exudates. At the same time, attention should be paid to the dietary habits of patients with superficial gastritis: it should be light, regular, and in appropriate quantities to prevent overly acidic, spicy, extremely cold, or rough foods. For patients, if the condition of gastritis is severe, timely symptomatic treatment and proper medication are necessary to prevent recurrence.
