Scientific studies have shown that Magnetic Therapy is a bunch of baloney. It doesn’t really treat anything.

“According to the Mayo Clinic, there is no definitive evidence that magbet therapy relieves pain. However, anecdotal evidence seems to suggest that some people do experience some pain relief from magnet therapy… But none of these theories has been scientifically proven” (link to article below)
Peptic ulcers are caused primarily from Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori), which is bacterial. Treatment is 3 fold: antibiotics, something to decrease stomach acid production, and something to block histamine production. Luring the bacteria out with magnets just won’t work, I’m afraid.
Save your money…

I read a long time ago that peptic ulcers are not caused by acid. It is caused by bacteria and the treatment for it is to take bismuth. Bismuth is the likes of Pepto-Bismol. This information came from a veterinary doctor who also became an M.D. It was in a tape series called, “dead doctors don’t lie.” You should use the search engines to get more information.

It is just like everything else, even prescription drugs, what will work for one person will not work on the next. Trial and error that’s what it takes to find out if it will work for you. The doctors do this all the time by changing prescription for the patients not seeing results. But for some reason this is over looked by the scientific community. These studies of natural “cures” seem to me to be flawed or prejudiced. If a prescription drug works on 50% of the patients it is said to have promising results. But that same 50% in natural cures is said to “not have enough evidence to back up the claims”. The only advice I can give is for you to just try it and see if it works for you.
