A gastritis diet can help to reduce gastritis symptoms caused by inflammation of the stomach lining. Indigestion, bloating, nausea, and burning stomach pain are often worse after eating fatty or spicy foods. A gastritis diet may be recommended to ease symptoms of an acute (sudden) gastritis attack or manage more persistent bouts of gastritis, often related to a chronic condition such as pernicious anemia. The key to the gastritis diet is avoiding acidic and spicy foods and eating low-acid, low-sugar foods instead. Gastritis-inflammation of the stomach lining-is a painful condition that is treated with diet and medication.The gastritis diet eliminates fat, sugar, certain spices (like garlic and pepper), and acidic fruits and vegetables (like oranges and tomatoes). These foods commonly irritate the stomach lining.Following the gastritis diet eases symptoms such as burning stomach pain, indigestion, and nausea. The diet can also prevent further complications, including anemia, peritonitis, and stomach cancer.
