Chronic gastritis patients can generally drink barley tea, jasmine tea, and Pu-erh tea. These teas are warm in nature and help protect the gastric mucosa. Drinking them usually does not worsen symptoms of chronic gastritis. However, during flare-ups, it is not advisable to drink strong tea. Additionally, diet should be light, avoiding spicy, stimulating, and greasy foods.
