Stomach ulcers are wounds in your stomach lining. You develop ulcers when acids from your food cause some damage to your stomach’s wall.
Stomach ulcers are also caused by Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) and the use of painkillers called nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.
The food you also eat when you discover that you have a stomach ulcer makes a world of difference in preventing pain and ensuring it doesn’t exacerbate.

Ask your doctor to be sure that garlic does not conflict with any other medication you might be on.
3. Greens and vegetables
Many vegetables like broccoli, collard greens, spinach contain vitamin A and vitamin A increases mucus in the gastrointestinal tract which is good if you have an ulcer.
4. Cranberry juice
Cranberries contain polyphenols that are good for your all-around health, but when it comes to your stomach, they reduce the rate at which H. Pylori is produced and also reduce inflammation in your stomach lining.
