Gastritis is a disease thatis very common - both in children and adults. And most often there is an erosive form of gastritis - the gastric mucosa is affected too much and ulcers are formed. They can be localized throughout the entire gastric mucosa, or they can be grouped in one place. Until a certain time, gastritis can be asymptomatic, but eventually it will still make itself known. Heartburn, nausea, vomiting, pain - this is not a complete list of all the "delights" of erosive gastritis. But in order to accurately diagnose the disease, be sure to familiarize yourself with such a concept as a diet for erosive gastritis. And also visit a gastroenterologist. Firstly, you can make a mistake with the diagnosis on your own, and this can be fraught with very serious consequences. Secondly, the doctor, taking into account your condition, will select the most appropriate course of treatment.

However, it is very important to remember the list of products that must be strictly excluded from the diet:

Several times a week, a sick person can include low-fat cottage cheese and kefir in the menu - this will help to avoid calcium deficiency. In addition, you can eat a steamed omelet twice a week. Homemade compotes and kissels will not be superfluous - the main thing is not from sour berries and fruits. In addition, you can drink weak black and green tea, just do not overdo it with sugar.
