Patient's question:
My daughter doesn't like eating breakfast and her diet is irregular when she's busy with caregiving, which has now led to gastritis. We're worried that if this continues, it might develop into stomach cancer. So, we heard about a home remedy that says dandelion can treat gastritis. For this reason, I'd like to ask how to drink dandelion to treat gastritis?Doctor's answer:
Dandelion has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects, and it can inhibit Helicobacter pylori, the bacterium that causes gastritis. Therefore, dandelion can be steeped in water to treat gastritis, but using it alone is not sufficient for complete self-healing. It is better to combine it with other medications for treatment. For those with gastritis, it is important to pay attention to dietary habits. Avoid extremely cold foods and focus on eating light, easily digestible foods. Fried, greasy, and spicy foods should be avoided. Regular physical exercise is also recommended to strengthen the body.
