Been plagued by ulcers most of my life and can say yoghurt is your only "fermented" food that hurts, but helps it leave fast. Most, if not all, fermented foods are soaked in spices or acidic solutions (looking at you, vinegar). It is what it is, I have resigned myself to weeks of water and fresh "healthy" living, when the ulcers occur.
what has helped me immensely for any symptoms has been supplementing with a high level of probiotics + fibrous foods. kombucha, yogurt, those inner-eco coconut water shots with probiotics are a godsend. Oatmeal, chia, and the like is great
oxalate rich foods like kale, beans, nuts etc actually have no effect on me but everyone is a little different, I still eat them. spice + fat + alcohol = nightmare fuel, I try to avoid this glad I’m talking about this! there’s no shame - everybody poops, sometimes it’s just way more painful
i’m very vulnwrable to stomach aches because i like to have a feast any time i have the need to eat. i had my first stomach ache in chicago and let me tell y ou, laying on the couch with a singular blanket x pillow. It’s the cure man. including boiling water poured over ginger but that’s my own lil treat
Sometimes you try your best and everything seems to hit the fan no matter how much you try, so you take that raincheck and take yourself out for a day.
This is what I call it hahahah made by mums everywhere but the greased up version is sold along stalls in Mumbai. Two regular slices of white bread, buttered, and the middle filling is cream cheese with red onions, coriander/cilantro, tomatoes and some minced chillis. All veggies chopped mini cube size so they blend with the cheese. Toasted crispy.
