In our present concepts of the production and maintenace of peptic ulcers, acid plays a important role to be challenged. The relationship between diet and the development or persistence of peptic ulcers remains contentious and then many previous report are noted. Although there are dietary chemicals that are potential ulcerogens seems certain, it is not known whether spices may, be expected to denote a common cause rather than an etiologic dependence to increase acidity. This study was undertaken to eraluate the effect of various spices and rice soup administration schedudes on intragastric pH in 21 patients with recent episodes of peptic ulcer by ambulatory 24hour intragastric pH monitoring at Korea University Hospital.
