Bacteria That Can Destroy Your Stomach – What You Need to Know About Helicobacter pylori

 


Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is a spiral-shaped bacterium that lives deep in the lining of your stomach. While it might sound harmless, this microorganism can cause long-term inflammation, ulcers, and even raise the risk of gastric cancer.


Once H. pylori damages the protective layer that shields your stomach from acid, the tissue becomes exposed and inflamed — leading to chronic gastritis or painful ulcers.


Common symptoms include:


  • Burning or aching pain in the upper abdomen
  • Bloating, frequent burping, and nausea
  • Loss of appetite or unintentional weight loss
  • A feeling of heaviness after meals



How infection happens:

You can get infected by eating contaminated food or drinking unsafe water. Many people carry the bacteria for years without any symptoms until the damage becomes significant.


Diagnosis and treatment:

H. pylori infection can be identified through a breath test, stool test, or blood test.

Treatment typically involves a combination of antibiotics and acid-suppressing medications, which help heal the stomach lining and eliminate the bacteria completely.


Prevention tips:


  • Wash hands thoroughly before eating
  • Drink clean, filtered water
  • Avoid undercooked or unhygienic food
  • Maintain a balanced, anti-inflammatory diet



Taking care of your stomach is key to your overall health — because when your gut suffers, everything else does too.
