Pamela,
Patience and perserverance to manage H pylori-will take time & strength; this is a perfect example of the need to strengthen the system to manage the infection vs relying on the military approach of trying to wipe it out; H pylori is a crafty microbe; it is ubiquitious and highly communicable-so even if it is wiped out once, will re-infect; so what is it about this client that is vulnerable; the approach to manage this : make the body & Gi tract strong-with an E4H diet, special emphasis on GI healing foods-cultured foods, bitter foods, veggies, fiber foods; strong digestive enzymes, betaine HCL (H pylori compromises HCL-may need high doses of betine HCL-can try the beet juice test), probiotics-(super ones like Probiotic 225 by Orthomolecular Products); rule out food allergies and other Gi infections that are weakening the system (find someone who can do the testing); then can use supplements geared toward H pylori-I have used 2 supplement formulas by Apex energetics: H PLR and Gastro ULC-3 caps each, 3X/day, for 3 bottles, away from food if possible; can retest-stool is best; may need to alternate with other H pylori specific formulas; will take time but it can be managed
