Abstract

Survival of an organism on the earth is always challenged by the nature. Hunger, adverse climatic conditions, protection against wild animals and diseases are important amongst survival. Today due to modern life style and food habits most of the population are suffering from a common disease called as Gastritis. According to recent survey Gastritis is a common medical problem. Up to 10% of people, who come to a hospital emergency department with an abdominal pain, have gastritis. The incidence of gastritis in India is approximately 3 in 869 that is about 12,25,614 people suffering from gastritis out of the total 1,06,50,70,607 population.
