Peptic Ulcer Symptoms

In 2005 Drs. Barry Marshall and Robin Warren received the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine when they proved that Helicobacter pylori bacteria cause peptic ulcers. Since then, it has been shown that H pylori infections are responsible for approximately 80% peptic ulcers and 95% duodenal ulcers (ulcers of the small intestine, also known as the duodenum). Around 10-15% of H pylori infected people are thought to develop peptic ulcers. Given that H pylori infects roughly half the world’s population, it’s clear that peptic ulcers are very common! Peptic Ulcer Symptoms Peptic ulcer symptoms are similar to H pylori...

Stomach Ulcer Symptoms

In 2005 Drs. Barry Marshall and Robin Warren were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology and Medicine for finally proving their theory that H pylori infection causes stomach ulcers (also known as peptic ulcers). Since that time, it has been shown that H pylori infections are responsible for approximately 80% stomach ulcers and 95% duodenal ulcers, which are ulcers of the upper small intestine. It is estimated that approximately 10-15% of people infected with H pylori develop ulcers. Given that H pylori infects around half the world’s population, we can safely say that the infection causes a lot of...

H Pylori Infection

When I was diagnosed with an H pylori infection back in 2007, I finally discovered one of the key root causes of my numerous, nagging symptoms: Heartburn Bloating Fatigue Difficulty sleeping Low libido I couldn’t have known the impact it would have on my life: almost six years later, I’ve written two books on the dangers of H pylori infection and coached more than a thousand clients from many different countries on how to successfully overcome H pylori using natural programs. Symptoms of H Pylori Infection H pylori infection is known by most doctors to cause stomach ulcers but...

H Pylori Symptoms – H Pylori & Cancer

What Role Does H pylori Infection Play in Colon Cancer? In terms of stomach cancer, The World Health Organization classifies H pylori as a “class I carcinogen”, which means the bacteria are in the same classification as smoking and asbestos are for lung cancer. Furthermore, the general consensus is that H pylori infection is the number one risk factor for stomach cancer. It defies belief how some doctors pass off H pylori as non-problematic. Some studies indicate relationships between H pylori and other types of cancer, leading scientists to become interested in the role of the infection in colon...

Do “Helicobacters” play a role in Crohn’s Disease?...

It is, of course, well known that H pylori causes gastritis, stomach ulcers and duodenal ulcers. We also know that H pylori symptoms extend well beyond the digestive tract. For example, if you have read my book or other articles on this website, you’ll know that H pylori infection is associated with a wide variety of complaints such as liver disorders, migraine, fatigue and heart disease. Given that members of the Helicobacter family colonize the intestinal mucus layer, it has been suggested they may play a role in Crohn’s disease (CD), which is a nasty inflammatory bowel disorder. This...

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. Furthermore, H pylori infection can cause stomach acid levels to drop, which may have a domino effect on the hormonal signals optimizing gallbladder function. As such, a sluggish gallbladder may develop, leading to inflammation and gallstones. I have personally noticed...
