 Definition Of
Gastritis

Gastritis is a condition when the lining of the stomach becomes

irritated, inflamed or eroded. In the lining of the stomach there are
glands whose function is to produce stomach acid and digestive
enzymes. The lining of the stomach is protected by thick mucus so
there is no irritation to the lining. When the mucus is gone, irritation
can occur in the stomach.
Gastritis is divided into acute and chronic. In acute
gastritis conditions, irritation will appear suddenly.
Generally, severe heartburn will appear even if only
temporarily as a symptom. In chronic gastritis,
irritation in the stomach takes place slowly but will
occur in a relatively longer period of time. The pain
caused by chronic gastric irritation is not as severe
as compared to acute gastritis but will last for a
long time. This irritation can change the structure
of the lining of the stomach and increase the risk of
developing cancer.

body

acid
• Drugs to fight bacterial infections
 Gastritis Prevention

If a person is prone to gastritis symptoms, start

trying to change the portion and meal
schedule. Changing the portion and meal
schedule can be done by reducing the portion
of the meal from the previous one. This is so
that the meal schedule becomes more
frequent than usual.

Oily, sour, or spicy foods should also be

avoided. Alcohol can also cause symptoms of
gastritis, so consumption of alcoholic
beverages should also be avoided. Stress
control must also be done in order to avoid this
disease.
