Nutritional Advice:
Start each morning with a glass of spring water and fresh lemon juice - this eradicates excess hydrochloric acid and removes any lingering food from the night before. It can also encourage the correct production of hydrochloric acid.
Foods should be easily digestible, non-fatty, no cooked spices, and no nuts or highly fibrous food. Avoid coffee, tea and alcohol. 'Cool' spices like cumin, fennel, caraway, basil and coriander will help.
Eat apple puree, rice, pureed vegetable and all wholesome home-made foods, while the healing process is taking place.
Eat pineapples and papayas for extra digestive help, but mix into aloe vera juice to prevent any harm to stomach walls.
Take 1 tablespoon of cider vinegar daily in half a cup (or more) of apple juice to alkalise the gut.
Food intake should be slow, unhurried and calm. Chewing should be thorough and slow, and initially eating and no talking can be helpful.
Include culinary herbs to aid digestion; fennel, gentian, caraway, mint and basil etc. Turmeric, ginger and cinnamon will be especially soothing and repairing to the gut wall.
Include arrowroot in cooking to further cool and heal stomach. It makes a healing alternative to wheat flour.
