title: [Dyspepsia and life style].
abstract: Information on eating habits, life situation and perceived stress was collected from 100 patients who consulted general practitioner because of dyspeptic complaints. This information was compared with information from a control group with no dyspeptic symptoms. The patients reported a higher degree of stress in connection with occupation and family, and more economic worries, than the control group. Patients with ulcus also tended to have a higher consumption of tobacco. There were no significant differences in eating habits or alcohol consumption between the groups.
