Absolutly not its one of the worst things you can use because the sugars can aggrevate it and make it even worse.
Ulcers are 100% treatable these days with a course of pills to kill the bacteria that causes them.
This is the bacteria that cause the ulcers in most cases:
helicobacter pylori bacteria and is the cause of duodenal/gastric ulcers and some gastric cancer.
Plus you can get pills like "Nexium" that totally stop the heartburn while they're healing etc.
No chance.
Umm. I don't know, try it and see.
i think you should take your pills and consult a doctor
Honey is high in viamen E & does eleviate the pain. Also try Marmite its good.
Honey is good to eat, and it has been used to counteract hay fever, but it also can work well with leg ulcers.
no salt is it hurts for few seconds but no pain no getting rid of the ulcers
honey obviously has some healing properties but not sure about ulcers - its good for coughs - best see your gp eh?
No, you need to take your medication and you will be cured. don't screw around with herbal stuff you need your medication to heal, I know about that.
if you are looking for a natural way to heal stomach or gastric ulcers look into the licorice herb.

As an anti-hepatotoxic licorice is effective in the treatment of chronic hepatitis and cirrhosis, for which it is been widely used in Japan. Much of the liver orientated research has focused upon the triterpene glycyrrhizin. This inhibits hepatocyte injury caused by carbon tetrachloride, benzene hexachloride and PCB. Antibody production is enhanced by glycyrrhizin, possibly through the production of interleukin.
Glycyrrhizin inhibits the growth of several DNA and RNA viruses, inactivating Herpes simplex virus particles irreversibly. It has a variety of uses in bronchial problems such as catarrh, bronchitis and coughs in general. Liquorice is used in allopathic medicine as a treatment for peptic ulceration, a similar use to its herbal use in gastritis and ulcers. It can be used in the relief of abdominal colic.
It nourishes the brain-increasing cranial and cerebrospinal fluid. Also improves complexion, hair, and vision.
Safety:
Caution : There is a small possibility of effecting electrolyte balance with extended use of large doses of licorice. It has an ACTH like effect causing retention of sodium thus raising BP. The whole herb has constituents that counter this but it is best to avoid Licorice if the patient has hypertension, kidney disease or during pregnancy.
It may interfere with the calcium and potassium absorption. Do not use if you are suffering from osteoporosis, hypertension (increases water around heart). Take with boiled milk.
No other information about the safety of this herb is available. Use caution. Ayurvedic herbs are often taken in combination with others to neutralize the toxicity one herb with the opposing effect of other. Do not take except under the supervision of a qualified professional.
