  Increase your intake of Fiber. Fiber slows the movement of food and acidic fluid in the stomach to the intestines. This treatment is especially helpful for those with duodenal ulcers.

• 2

  Many patients with peptic ulcers have a food allergy that they are unaware of, which causes aggravation and interferes with the healing of peptic ulcers. You may want to speak to a doctor to discuss any possible food sensitivities.
