Banana: soft and smooth, it coats the stomach and lowers acidity — eat 6-9 bananas a day when there is an ulcer or gut trouble. Ripe banana with curd and sugar cools stomach burning; unsalted raw-banana vegetable also heals ulcers.

Traditional
आलू · Potatoes
Half a cup of raw potato juice on an empty stomach for four weeks — the alkaline juice eases the burn, though the evidence for it is thin. Never from a green or sprouted potato; solanine is poisonous. If the ulcer is H. pylori, and most are, only the antibiotic course closes it. Black stool, or vomit like coffee grounds, means it is bleeding: hospital, the same hour.
