Grapes for erosive gastritis
Erosive gastritis is not just inflammation of the mucous membrane, but also the appearance of wounds on its surface as a result of the loss of protective functions. Such a product, which is difficult to assimilate, stimulates the secretion of the digestive secretion, and is capable of inflicting even greater harm, even internal bleeding.
