Physician: In comparing our country with two other countries of roughly the same population size, I found that even though we face the same dietary, bacterial, and stress-related causes of ulcers as they do, prescriptions for ulcer medicines in all socioeconomic strata are much rarer here than in those two countries
It' s clear that we suffer significantly fewer ulcers, per capita, than they do
The two countries that were compared with the physician's country had approximately the same ulcer rates as each other.
