I don't like to say "OMG I'm healed!" because I'm afraid to try to touch a mirage, if you know what I mean, but I have had a bad ulcer or many ulcers for a couple of years, that I gave myself from supplementing a certain amino acid (taurine, for gallbladder), and using too much salt. After a couple of months drinking Kombucha, I seem to be able to better tolerate salt. For these two years just a tiny amount would feed the h. Pylori bacteria in my stomach and flare up my ulcers.. causing days of pain. Now, I don't get discomfort from adding salt to food. At least, not with Taro root.
