Helicobacter pylori infects 800 million people in China, you should know most about it!

Many reports claim that Helicobacter pylori is the only bacterium that can survive in the stomach, which is wrong. With the continuous improvement of detection methods, it is currently believed that the stomachs of normal people mainly contain bacteria such as Prevotella, Streptococcus, Veillonella, Roseburia, and Haemophilus.

· Some time ago, the United States listed Helicobacter pylori as a clear carcinogen, which became a hot topic. However, in fact, as early as 1994, it was listed as a Class I carcinogen by the World Health Organization. Many articles claim that Helicobacter pylori is transmitted through oral-oral and stomach-oral transmission, but these are just assumptions. At present, the transmission route of Helicobacter pylori is still unclear, and most people believe that family transmission and fecal-oral transmission are the main and most important routes.

According to research, about 20%-30% of people infected with Helicobacter pylori will have gastrointestinal diseases of varying degrees, 50% of whom will suffer from gastric mucosal atrophy, and only 2%-3% will eventually develop gastric cancer. In an era of consumerism, people's concerns about Helicobacter pylori may be a bit exaggerated. If you are an adult and have stomach diseases, or if you eat too much and have poor gastrointestinal function, then you should pay attention to the problems caused by Helicobacter pylori. But if you eat well and have no stomach symptoms, or if you are a child or the elderly, there is no need to worry too much, or to destroy the already balanced stomach microecology.
