Duodenal/ stomach ulcers

Duodenal/ stomach ulcers have responded miraculously to the drinking of cabbage juice. Its origin as a traditional remedy goes back to the work of Dr. Garnet Cheney, of Stanford Uni., some 30 years ago. He is reported to have cured many ulcer patients with raw cabbage juice. The juice contains the anti-ulcer factor, Vitamin U. This vitamin is destroyed by cooking. The treatment consists of taking 90- 180 gm of cabbage juice for 3 times daily followed by a natural diet.

To render the juice more palatable, Dr. Cheney often added celery juice, made from both stalk & green, pineapple juice, tomato juice or citrus juice. Chilling the mixed juice also helps to improve the flavour. The juice should be taken at many intervals throughout the day. Or to make it easier, one can nibble on raw cabbage 4-5 times a day ! Cabbage has very less calories & is good for weight reduction too !
