Health after surgery remedies

The fact that you underwent surgery for a peptic ulcer has definitely put a strain on your digestive system and could possibly be the cause of your flatulence. Some of the home remedies that you can use to cure it are drinking a mixture of 1tsp of pepper, 1tsp of cardamom seeds with half a glass of water after boiling the mixture, an hour after a meal. Chewing peppermint also helps in soothing the digestive muscles as it contains menthol.

In terms of eating habits, chewing your food slowly and steadily is important. Since you are also underweight, consuming muskmelons three times a day for about 40 days is very useful. You could also consider adopting a mango-milk diet for a month. It involves eating two medium sized ripe and sweet mangoes, after which you should drink a glass of milk. The mango acts a source of sugar and is rich in fats, while the milk is rich in protein, thus creating a perfect balance. Raisins also act as a useful remedy to help gain weight, and consumption of about 30 Gms daily is very effective. Regular exercise, a proper, well balanced diet that is high in natural fibers, and the consumption of meals at proper times not only keeps one fit and healthy, but makes for proper bowel movements and also prevents flatulence.
