Helicobacter pylori and Survival in Human Stomach

Biology Professor (Twitter: @DrWhitneyHolden) describes the adaptations of Helicobacter pylori that help it survive in the acidic environment of the human stomach, where is causes disease. Great for MCAT Biology Review!

It's very easy to say the word ulcer. But very difficult to bear it.😢

love the class, but do you have another explaining what to do, eat, drink, to erradicate h pylori without classic treatment??

[sergioluna]

Good info, I'm a microbiologist and this was some good info about H. pylori (the teacher is also beautiful to be fair)

But, what do the feed upon? Is it the food that we eat, or something totally different?

[beachgirrl]

This is great. Nicely presented. Thank you

For anyone who wants to know the treatment. Its simple. Eat garlic on empty stomach. It worked for me seriously. Go for it.

Is betaine HCL be effective against H. Pylori? Thank you for the informative video!

[msbonnie]

Very informative. I’ve taken the antibiotics but I’m experiencing worse cramps. What would happen if we raise our ph to a more alkaline level?

[billdidit]

Try a product called scram, has green walnut husk in it

[alvarogarcia]

Over 50% of the world population has H Pylori

Thanks a lot Biology Professor. I didn't know we have urea (typically in urine) in our stomach. Where does it come from? I guess from our enzymes decomposing the food? If urea production in the stomach was somehow inhibited, the bacteria would likely die without it, right? Is that a possible way to kill it without using antibiotics?

I cannot tell anything I am suffering from exams

[coolbreeze]

So if you kill the mucous you kill the bacteria?

[nekufluf]

I HAVE THIS AND CHRONS SRSLY!!! STOMACH AND INTESTINAL ULERS

how can you be so pretty and smart at the same time????

[threetimesknowledge]
