Gen. James N. Mattis (Getty Images) United States Marine Corps Gen. James âMad Dogâ Mattis was notified that he was being replaced as commander of U.S. Central Command not by a phone call from Washington, but by a note passed to him by an aide, according to Foreign Policyâs Thomas E. Ricks. From Ricksâ report:
Research suggests that flavonoids (compounds that occur naturally in many fruits and vegetables) are an effective treatment for stomach ulcers. Foods and drinks rich in flavonoids include soybeans, legumes, red grapes, kale broccoli, apples, berries, and teas, especially green tea.
The foods you eat cannot cause an ulcer, but they can further irritate your ulcer and delay the healing process. Avoiding foods that are spicy and high in acid content and consuming milder, low-acid foods instead will help your ulcer heal.
