Researchers at the University of California School of Medicine evaluated nearly 7,000 adults, finding that almost one-third had antibodies against a strand of bacteria believed to be the

cause of most ulcers. Chronic infection with this bacteria is an important risk factor for both ulcer problems and gastric cancer. The findings reveal that higher blood levels of ascorbic acid were associated with lower rates of infection by 25%. Higher intakes of vitamin C rich foods in the stomach help prevent infection and ulcers. Vitamin C is present in fruits and vegetables including pineapples, oranges, lemons, and bell peppers. Each year, 500,000 new cases of peptic ulcer disease surface in the U.S.. Under recommendations by the Institute of Medicine, women should consume 75 milligrams of vitamin C a day and men should consume 90. A medium orange has about 60 milligrams.
