Helicobacter Pylori Is Present In People Who Have Gallbladder Disease...

Several studies reveal the presence of H pylori in gallbladder tissue but it’s not clear whether the H pylori itself causes gallbladder disease. H pylori can cause severe damage in the stomach and intestine of infected individuals, leading to peptic and duodenal ulcers, as well as gastric cancer. It is plausible that the infection can also damage gallbladder tissue.

As such, a sluggish gallbladder may develop, leading to inflammation and gallstones. I have personally noticed...

Its role in colon cancer is controversial. A Greek study recently explored the relationship between H. pylori infection and...

It’s quite ridiculous. Chronic ITP is an autoimmune disease. Autoimmune diseases are basically characterized when our own immune systems decide to attack our own tissues! Other common autoimmune conditions that you may have heard of include:...
