I ended up with a stomach ulcer back in the 80's from pharma anti inflammatory drug, so I have feared a flair up so really really am careful. I take turmeric and what I believe is saving my stomach is DGL which is called a stomach lining tamer. There is a lot of info on DGL and I've even written reviews on my use of it and how it saves me. I'm probably taking it 5 yrs or so. puritan pride has good deals and I stock up. Taking ibuprofen too can give worry. So far so good.

I do take digestive enzymes and probiotics daily too. Doing all I know to do to get thru the rest of my life.... I have no problems with spicy foods, I don't avoid them.
