An older patient with a newly diagnosed peptic ulcer asks why lifestyle alterations are necessary. What should the nurse explain to the patient about their new diagnosis?

"It is important to reduce alcohol; it stimulates gastric acid secretion."

"It is important to reduce alcohol; it acts to suppress gastric immunity."

▸ "It is important to eat two large meals per day; this will reduce abdominal pain."

▸ "It is important to reduce smoking because tobacco reduces the effectiveness of gastric ulcer medications."
