just wanted to share our success eradicating h.pylori with Mastic Gum (aka Gum Mastica from Greece) which kills the bug (we got ours in capsule form at our local Vitamin Shoppe branch (www.vitaminshoppe.com) and also DGL- licuorice root, which heals the ulcerated areas.

It *must* be DGL-liquorice (usually comes in cheawable wafers- we like the one by NOW Foods which i get at www.iherb.com ) Other forms of liquorice root are not the same in GIT mucosal healing properties, and regular liquorice root can elevate blood pressure, so do be sure to only use DGL-liquorice root for this (DGL = Deglycyrrhizinised liquorice )

hope that can maybe help if you need to try to avoid the chemical rx drug route.
