    Gastritis is a condition where the stomach lining becomes inflamed. The stomach lining contains gastric glands that secrete hydrochloric acid and digestive enzymes to break down food. It is normally protected by a layer of mucus. When food is not eaten regularly, excess gastric juices can damage the stomach lining along with bacteria like Helicobacter pylori. Risk factors for gastritis include spicy foods, alcohol, caffeine, stress, pain killers, and smoking. Symptoms are vomiting, burning stomach pain, loss of appetite, and blood vomiting. Treatment involves antacids to neutralize stomach acid and avoiding acidic and salty foods.
