Q: The foods which may irritate ulcers vary from person to person. Some people can eat whatever they like without any increased irritation, but this is not true for everyone. You will have to learn over time which foods cause you problems and cut them out or limit them in your diet. This also helps to prevent ulcers in the future. A good place to start is with foods which increase your stomach acid production.  Patients with peptic ulcers should avoid diets rich in red meat, fried or fatty foods, and refined foods, such as flour or sugar. Be cautious of dairy foods with whole milk or cream. Spearmint, peppermint, and other minty foods seem to increase the production of stomach acid. Diets heavy in these foods can lead to further ulcer irritation and an increase in stomach acid. As well as foods that can provoke increased production of stomach acid, some other foods can irritate your ulcer more directly. In practice, this will vary from person to person, but there are some general recommendations for those with an ulcer. The first of these is to try to avoid eating spicy food. The sting you feel from spicy food if you have a cut on your finger or mouth can be replicated in your stomach or intestine if you have an ulcer.  The second recommendation is to avoid citrus and acidic foods and drinks. Highly acidic orange or lemon juice could irritate the ulcer and cause you pain. You should also be wary of tomato products, onions and garlic and heavily seasoned food in general. Diets rich in whole grains and fiber rich foods, with limited dairy, help control the production of stomach acid. Ensure you get plenty of fibrous vegetables as part of your healthy balanced diet. If you are not consuming enough vitamin-rich foods your body may find it harder to heal your ulcer.  Good sources of fiber are whole-wheat bread, pasta, and brown rice. Opt for limited amounts of lean meat, and limited low fat dairy products.  There is no single recommended diet for those with an ulcer, so you should think about what food causes you irritation and discuss this with your doctor.  Eating foods rich in antioxidants (blueberries, cherries, tomatoes, squash, and bell peppers), flavonoids (apples, celery, cranberries, onions, garlic, and tea), B vitamins and calcium (almonds, beans, whole grains, spinach, kale, and sea vegetables) may also help to reduce your symptoms. Continue to drink 6-8 glasses of water each day as part of your healthy diet. A peptic ulcer sufferer is not advised to eat sporadic meals that vary in size. Doing so may cause disruption in the normal production of stomach acid, and end up irritating an ulcer. Keeping meals small and regular can help level out stomach acid. Your stomach may deal better with small regular meals than large irregular ones. Avoid eating anything at least two hours before you go to bed.
A: Avoid food that increases the production of stomach acid. Steer clear of food that may irritant your ulcer. Eat plenty of fiber. Eat meals according to a regular schedule.

Q: You can find one in the woods or you can buy something which is similar, like a 2" diameter dowel rod. You can buy dowel rods at your local hardware store for just a few dollars.    {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/thumb\/d\/d8\/Make-a-Ninja-Sword-Step-1Bullet1-Version-2.jpg\/v4-459px-Make-a-Ninja-Sword-Step-1Bullet1-Version-2.jpg","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/d\/d8\/Make-a-Ninja-Sword-Step-1Bullet1-Version-2.jpg\/aid461482-v4-728px-Make-a-Ninja-Sword-Step-1Bullet1-Version-2.jpg","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":334,"bigWidth":"728","bigHeight":"529","licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>License: <a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc-sa\/3.0\/\">Creative Commons<\/a><br>\n<\/p><p><br \/>\n<\/p><\/div>"} Real ninja swords were short, allowing them to fight it close combat and move more easily. A good rule of thumb is for the blade to be the same length as the distance from your elbow to the tips of your fingers. Just be sure to leave an extra 4-8" for the handle on the end. Shave off the bark using a knife or whittling tools. If you are using a dowel rod, this will not be needed. Using a knife or whittling tools, carve the sword blade into the shape you want. Point the tip and add some curve if you want to, but real ninja swords probably had little curve and an angled point. Once you've got the rough shape that you want, use sandpaper to get the final look right. Sandpaper will make it easier to get the shape just perfect, since it only removes a little at a time. Using some electrical tape, wrap the handle of your sword. Cut a piece of cardboard so that it will fit down over the blade. Paint it black and slip it on to create the hand guard. Do this from the blade side, not the handle. Use some extra tape to really seal the hand guard to the main part of the sword. You can make your sword look even cooler if you want to, by painting the blade silver. Use tape and newspaper to protect your handle and then use silver metallic spray paint to paint the blade. Do this outside. When it's done drying, enjoy your new sword!
A:
Get a thick, straight stick. Cut the sword to length. Clean up the wood. Carve the sword into the desired shape. Sand the blade smooth. Wrap the handle. Create the hand guard. Slide the hard guard onto the sword. Tape the hand guard in place. Add finishing touches.
