Dietary Tips for Gastritis (2/12) When the stomach lining becomes irritated during gastritis, a small amount of acid escapes through the opening at the top of the stomach and into the esophagus -- this condition is known as acid reflux. Following a nutritious, non-spicy diet can help eliminate the symptoms of gastritis and acid reflux. Fill your plate with whole grains, almonds, beans and antioxidant-rich fruits and vegetables. Avoid fried and fatty foods, coffee, alcohol, chocolate and anything spicy -- like peppers and chili powder.
Gastritis can cause upper abdominal discomfort or pain, and sometimes nausea, vomiting and stomach bleeding. However, some people have no symptoms. While there are no specific diet recommendations for gastritis, certain foods can also cause stomach discomfort, bloating or heartburn and could compound any pre-existing gastritis symptoms. It may take time to identify which -- if any -- foods are aggravating your symptoms, so it helps to keep a food and symptom diary.
