Article: NSAIDs, such as Advil and ibuprofen, can harm the lining of the stomach and make you more susceptible to ulcers. Take them only when necessary and only as directed. Eat a meal before taking them to reduce the effect they have on your stomach.  Take acetaminophen (Tylenol) instead of NSAIDs when possible. Acetaminophen won’t damage the enzymes that protect your stomach lining. If the pain you’re feeling is moderate, try managing the pain without NSAIDs with techniques like yoga and relaxation. Alcohol can wear away the mucous lining of the stomach and increase its production of acid, which can make you more susceptible to ulcers. If you are having multiple drinks a day, cut back to having just a few drinks a week. Talk to your doctor about your consumption of alcohol to make sure you’re not posing a risk to your health. Avoid drinking alcohol when you’re taking pain killers, such as NSAIDs. When the two are taken together, they can be hard on the lining of your stomach. Cigarettes and other tobacco products can increase the risk of ulcers. They can also make it more difficult for an ulcer to heal, if you already have one. If you use tobacco, try to quit. Research online to find helpful guides to get started on the process of quitting. Foods with active cultures in them, like yogurt, buttermilk, and kefir, can help the good bacteria in your gut while preventing ulcers. Also incorporate vegetables like kale, broccoli, and cauliflower into your diet.   Avoid foods that might irritate your stomach, like spicy and citrus foods. Caffeine increases the amount of acid you have in your stomach, which can lead to ulcers. Try to limit the amount of caffeinated coffee you drink every day, and avoid caffeinated sodas and energy drinks. Stress is more likely to irritate an existing ulcer than to cause one to form. But if you want to prevent ulcers, lowering your stress levels will help your body remain healthy. Getting at least 2 hours of exercise a week can help reduce stress levels.  Taking up a hobby or spending time with family or friends can also help you to unwind after work, school, or anything else that causes stress. Sleep for 7-8 hours a night to help yourself recover from the stress of your day. Take a bath with epsom salts to help you relax.
