Who gets gastritis?

Almost everyone will experience gastritis at some point. However, it is more likely to develop in older adults, as they have thinner stomach linings and a higher chance of infection with Helicobacter pylori bacteria. People with high levels of stress or who regularly consume drugs and alcohol are also more likely to develop gastritis.
