Take Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium

Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables (fresh or frozen are fine but make sure there is no sugar added), regular portions of protein from lean meat sources, choosing legumes, beans, and millet over traditional grains, and supplementing with fish oil and probiotics. Minimize sugars, trans fats, red meat, and omega-6 fats.

Hope this helps

Diet won't help. It is meaningless. This is an infection and treated with a "tripple antibiotic". That is to say three different antibiotics simultaneously. There are various combinations, the idea being to simultaneously attack three different methods of replication, because the cells mutate. There is more than one variety of H. Pylori.  The bacteria exists on raw chicken sometimes and you can get reinfected. Wash and cook chicken thoroughly and sterilize all cutting boards. There are arguments pro and con administering acid reducing medications. The "pro" is that they inhibit replication. The "con" is that they cause the infection sites to shrink in size and encapsulate, which makes them less susceptable to the antibiotics. There is also an argument not to treat it at all if there is no pain or symptoms. Scientific American did an article on this and you can do a search.

Go to your GI doctor and have the necessary medications ordered.
Which would be antibiotics and a acid suppressing or acid reducimg medication. Check the web for a gastritis or ulcer diet.
