In these cases add another, found 20 years ago: Helicobacter pylori, a bacterium that forms the foundation of the ulcerous disease.

The recommended dose for heartburn is two the grains before breakfast and bedtime. It can, however, use propolis tincture, purchased from stores with natural profile. It is administered 10 to 20 drops in based on body weight, morning and evening, on a piece of bread. Because the tincture also has the alcohol in the composition, which is contraindicated for stomach problems, we recommend patients to wait a half hour to evaporate the alcohol.

But because honey has a mild acidity, it is recommended to dilute in a herb tea.
