EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF THE EFFECT OF MINERAL WATERS ON THE GASTRIC MUCOSA OF WISTAR RATS

Abstract

Acid-related diseases (ARD) are the most common among digestive diseases. The main goals of therapy of ARD are to reduce the influence of aggression factors (production of HCl, pepsin) and increase the protective properties of the mucous membrane of the upper digestive tract. Also currently in medicine, one of the therapeutic and preventive methods is the use of chloride-hydrocarbonate sodium boron mineral waters. In this study, we compared the efficacy of table mineral waters in the therapy of induced gastropathy in Wistar rats. The study of the effect of mineral waters on the gastric mucosa of Wistar rats has provided valuable information that can be applied in medical practice for the treatment and prevention of various diseases of the gastrointestinal tract in humans. Careful analysis of the data obtained has shown that certain types of mineral waters can significantly reduce inflammatory processes and promote regeneration of the gastric mucosa, which makes them a useful addition to traditional treatment methods such as pharmacotherapy.
