     Drink these fresh juices, one a day and repeat the seven every week. It is easy. Just cut and put in blender with little water and dates if needed, blend and drink.

Siddha medicines priases Aloe vera for peptic or stomach ulcer.

    Do all the juices every day , but most important is the aloe vera juice. The Banana stem juice is also very good. They form like a band aid to the wound inside the stomach. Like we avoid getting the skin wound wet during the healing, avoid salty and spicy food.

 Remember Alove Vera and Banana stem juice are powerful band aid to coat the stomach wound and heal it. Drink it before breakfast in empty stomach.

Water Therapy :We generally recommend doing Water Therapy to mitigate these problems. But many patients report that not all are benefitted initially with water therapy, but first healing the damage and then doing water therapy helps. Instead of drinking plain room temperature water you can drink luke warm water (with general flavors like mint leaves, cardamom, sarsparilla root powder, hibiscus flowers etc) for better results.
So do water therapy after you heal the ulcer.

Fire Therapy :Yoga exercises. Do the yoga steps which are comfortable. Don’t strain. When yoga done, feel that the toxins like excess salts in the body are removed and the body is healed. Self accupressure is a very healing yoga method.

Yoga is very good especially Surya Namaskar given in fire section. It helps in good lymphatic circulation.
