Guizhou people take the second place. Sichuan and Chongqing people are in the third place. Hubei people take the fifth place in the ranking. Have you ever tasted some spicy Chinese dishes? What are your favorite? There are some typical dishes: 1. Hunan Chopped Chili 2. Chongqing Hot Pot 3. Hubei's Spicy Crayfish 4. Wuhan's Duck's Neck

Wan Yes, my mom has a gastritis problem though she doesn't eat too much chili. She eats cold food too much. I guess that's why she gets gastritis.

I don't know the traditional medicine for this ailment, but for those prefer modern medicine, Controloc (pantoprazole) is recommended. Wan

The premise is that you find a very experienced old traditional Chinese medicine expert. My mom is over fifty. She has visited a local traditional Chinese medicine doctor many times. The doctor's prescriptions and medicine really work.

I apologise for not explaining the terms for medicine. There are innovator medicine and generic medicine. Innovator medicine is the original product, first produced, such as Norvasc by Pfizer. Other pharmaceuticals may produce its generic name Amlodipine Besylate (for high blood pressure). Any generic Amlodipine will do but not the same as Norvasc and then of course innovator medicine is more expensive than the generic.

Some people say that innovator is more expensive than the generic because it involves with laboratory studies.
