6. You are losing weight
When you’re on a weight-loss diet, it’s normal and expected to lose some weight, but if you’re losing weight for apparently no reason, visit a gastroenterologist. Doctors suggest that you can easily contract H. pylori by consuming contaminated foods. The same applies to contaminated water, too.
Once H. pylori have entered your body, due to the discomfort provoked, most people can’t eat; therefore, they lose weight. The scale doesn’t lie… So if you notice any changes in your weight, maybe it’s time to contact your doctor. It’s important to treat this type of infection as soon as possible to minimize the consequences.
Generally, taking antibiotics will most likely get you rid of H. pylori. Therefore your gastritis will be long gone.
