The best thing you can do is prevent infection altogether. Wash your hands often and well, especially after going to the bathroom or after being in public places such as public transport or the gym. Avoid raw or undercooked foods and dairy products, and don\u2019t consume water unless you are sure that it is safe. This is especially important if you are traveling and don\u2019t know about the country\u2019s water sanitization practices. If you think you might have an H. Pylori infection, talk to a practitioner or medical professional to get tested.<\/p>\n
