H
elicobacter pylori (H. py- lori) is a bac-
teria estimated to be found in the body of two-thirds of the world's population naturally, and usually does not cause symp- toms. But in some cases it can be found as a contributing fac- tor in ulcers, and may even drive some forms of gastric can- cer.
Modern treat-
ment for H. pylori infection focuses on total eradication using so-called "triple therapy," which includes two antibiotics and an acid-blocker. Treatment of this kind, how- ever, often results in antibiotic-associated imbalances in the gut flora, as well as driving antibiotic-resistant strains of H. pylori which can cause more serious forms of recurrence. This is one reason why there is growing interest in natural alternatives to drug-based treatment, and why we are excited to highlight some of the more compelling research out there on 'natural cures' to this common problem.
Here are three clinically tested solutions that may work in tandem, or as a complete alternative to conventional treatment:
Broccoli Sprouts: A study published in Digestive Diseases and Sciences in 2004 titled, "Oral broccoli sprouts for the treatment
3 Natural H. Pylori 'Cures' That Are Clinically Proven
of Helicobacter py- lori infection: a pre- liminary report", found that seven of nine patients (78%) who consumed broc- coli sprouts (14, 28, or 56 g) twice daily for 7 days were stool antigen negative for H. pylori
infection By: Sayer Ji
immediately after the completion of thera- py and six remained negative at day 35. Broccoli sprouts con- tain extremely high levels of the sulfur-
containing biomolecule sulforaphane which we have identified research on mitigating over 150 different diseases.
Probiotics: A 2012 study published in Inflammation and Allergy Drug Targets titled, "Probiotic multistrain treatment may eradicate Helicobacter pylori from the stomach of dyspeptics: a placebo- controlled pilot study", found that a 10-day treatment with a multi-strain probiotic in patients with H. pylori associated dys- pepsia resulted in 13 of the 40 patients experiencing complete eradication. (Note: The patients received 1.8 trillion alive of the following strains: Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus aci- dophilus, Bifidobacterium longum, Lactobacillus plantarum, Bifidobacteriuym brevis, Lactobacillus paracasei, Bifidobacterium infantis, Lactobaccilus delbrueckii bulgaricus subspecies). Probi- otics fight infection naturally. For additional information consult our research page on probiotics which includes research on its value in over 200 conditions, many of which are infection-relat- ed.
Black Seed (Nigella Sativa): A 2010 study published in the
Saudi Journal of Gastroenterology titled, "Comparative study of Nigella Sativa and triple therapy in eradication of Helicobacter Pylori in patients with non-ulcer dyspepsia", found that a dose of only 2 grams of black seed (Nigella Sativa) in combination with an acid blocker was about as effective (67%) as triple therapy (which includes an acid blocker, and two antibiotics) in treating H. pylori infection. Black seed has been studied to have value in a wide range of conditions. Consult our black seed database page for more information.
In addition to these solutions, please consult our growing Heli- cobacter pylori research page (
http://www.greenmedinfo.com/ disease/helicobacter-pylori-infection), which includes over 50 studied natural, evidence-based interventions, including possible problem substances such as aspirin which may cause underlying damage to the mucosal lining of the digestive tract, producing conditions that lead to the opportunistic overgrowth of "bad" bacteria such as H. pylori.
