Digestive system diseases, in addition to causing serious damage to the body, also significantly affect everyday life.
You can say this about esophagitis, which infects the mucous membrane of the esophagus.
It is not surprising that over the centuries in folk medicine, many recipes have been created and tested for its treatment, which will be discussed later.
It is useful to know that most often we are talking about reflux esophagitis, in which the contents of the stomach (including irritating hydrochloric acid) are thrown into the esophagus.
Other forms of the disease are also found:
• Infectious esophagitis - caused by the activity of pathogenic bacteria;
• corrosive esophagitis - the cause of which is a burn with alkalis, acids or alcohol-containing liquids;
• traumatic esophagitis - provoked, for example, by swallowed fish bone.
Despite the various etiologies, many folk remedies for esophagitis are universally applicable to all its forms - after all, the same reduction in the inflammatory process and regeneration, the mucous membranes of the body are necessary in any case.
Moreover - most home medicines have diverse useful properties - they anesthetize, disinfect, and regenerate. So you can choose them both by a set of qualities, and by those that are most valuable at the moment.

The value of nutrition with esophagitis
Dietary nutrition in many cases not only accelerates recovery, but is also a prerequisite for it, plus it eases the patient's condition.
Esophagitis is no exception. Moreover, experts are often limited to general instructions, rather than strict limits. So, with this ailment it is useful to use:
• natural ice cream;
• fermented milk;
• warm mineral water without gas;
• exotic fruits - bananas, pineapple, papaya;
And so as not to get worse, you need to shorten the menu:

Moreover, it is recommended to apply centuries-old experience to oneself only with the approval of the attending physician and this is quite realistic - modern science recognizes many worthy recipes as quite worthy options.
