Mastic Gum, DGL, and Manuka Honey for H. Pylori

Mastic Gum, DGL, and Manuka Honey for H. Pylori
I have been experiencing stomach discomfort since the middle of January. I had a colonoscopy/endoscopy last Wednesday and my biopsy results came back today...positive H Pylori. My doctor prescribed a triple antibiotic regimen to take for the next 14 days. I would really prefer a more natural approach versus 2000 mg of antibiotics for the next 2 weeks. On my way to the pharmacy to pick up these dreaded antibiotics, I decided to swing by a local health store. The rep told me about Manuka Honey(12+ medical grade), Mastic gum(500 mg) and DGL (457 mg). If I'm going the natural route what are your dosing recommendations for this stuff? Do I take all 3 or a combination, or just one? Please help, if you have tried any of these items for H Pylori and Hiatal Hernia, please respond with your method and let me know if it was successful. Btw: no ulcers, just gastritis. Thanks
