This helical rod-shaped bacterium is present in the gastrointestinal tract of almost 2/3 of the population. However, the stomach infection does not always end up being serious; only him 10-25% of the population you can get it.
It is not yet known exactly how it spreads, but there are studies that indicate that it travels through water, crowds or by contact with someone infected with said bacteria, but if you think you suffer from it, here are some of the symptom suffering from Helicobacter pylori:

- Stomach pain so bad that it doesn't let you sleep.
- Excretion of black feces, also known as Melena.
