Hi,

  I am wondering if it is ok to drink green tea. I know it has anti-inflamatory properties but it does contain some caffeine. Do you think it will effect the adrenals?

Everyone has different things that set you off. I never moderated my caffeine. I admit it. I don't overdo it, generally so whatever I want I eat/drink.

Sleep/gluten/stress/nutrients/eating on time were (are) bigger issues for me.

You can probably find decaf green tea.

Hi pricklypear1971,

     I will look into the decaf tea.

I still have a lot of nausea. This morning I had 1/4 cup of an organic green tea and it did help.

I will be very moderate with it. Mornings are my worst time so that's when I will carefully take it.

I agree with your issues. They are the big ones.

  I have been able to add more foods this week so I am pleased with that and have gained another pound.I'm now up to 116.

That is a relief.

I seem to be tolerating nuts and nutbutter fine. So far.

So good so good with the kefir. The kefir is helping with the acid reflux plus  so that is a benefit.

Hope you are doing well.

Cheerio

Cynthia.....if you have not been tested for adrenal issues, then there is no reason to avoid caffeine unless you notice that it bothers you. Not to mention there is not much caffeine in tea to begin with, compared to brewed coffee.  No one should ever take supplements for adrenal or thyroid issues unless you have been tested for and found to have a need for them.  You should be monitored with blood work when addressing these issues.

 

The nausea will go away.  I had severe morning nausea that made morning sickness look like a walk in the park and it went away after a fairly short time on the gluten-free diet....about a month. Hang in there and yes, tea does help with nausea.  Also, peppermint is good for nausea and some health food stores have supplements that contain peppermint.  There is peppermint tea but make sure it is gluten-free!  Peppermint Life savers even helped me, at times.

      Finding out I’m coeliac whilst pregnant

      By Beverage · Posted

      Sounds like you are in the UK. With blood numbers that high, I thought docs in UK would give an official diagnosis without the biopsy. You should ask about that, so you can get support faster.  I'd try to find and print out anything that supports that in your country, get another appointment and take all of it with you. Even in the US now, some docs are doing this, my 19 year old step granddaughter got an official diagnosis here in US with just blood results a few months ago.

      Seeking Gluten-Free Advice for My Trip to South Korea!

      By Beverage · Posted

      Is soy sauce in Korea also made from wheat like it usually is in US? I'd be concerned that even if asking about gluten, they would not be aware of or think of some like that.

      Not Sure What to Think

      By trents · Posted

      That's a good idea. It can at least establish the potential for developing celiac disease and can help people decided between a celiac diagnosis and NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). And it doesn't require a gluten challenge and can be had without a doctor's prescription.

      Anyone had endoscopy with a cold/cough???

      By awright24 · Posted

      I have my endoscopy on Thursday, has anyone had the procedure done with a cough? I don't have a continuous cough, but every now and then throughout the day I have sort of coughing episodes. They are a lot better than they were but I called endoscopy and they said to speak to my gp and my gp got back to me and said I need to ask endoscopy if its ok if I have it done still.  Help!

      Thank you so much, everyone. For the moment my doctor just has me taking iron but hopefully we can reconnect soon. I'm going to look into genetic testing, too. Great advice all around and I appreciate it--and you can bet I'm going off the PPIs!
