Eating chocolate may aggravate ulcers by contributing toward heartburn, so cutting chocolate from the diet may help. The College of Family Physicians of Canada indicates that avoiding both caffeine and milk both may help heal an ulcer, and chocolate contains both. A 2-oz serving of semi-sweet chocolate provides 44 mg of caffeine, and 2 oz of bittersweet chocolate contains 68 mg, according to Amano Artisan Chocolate. The National Digestive Diseases Information Clearinghouse reveals that some people think drinking milk or eating milk products such as chocolate may help ulcers heal. Although this may temporarily make the stomach feel better, it can ultimately worsen symptoms because it can trigger heartburn.
