Is It Safe To Drink Green Tea?

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.

      Hi Scott, yes I have had symptoms for years and this is the second GI I have seen and he could not believe I have never been tested. He called later today and I am scheduled for an endoscopy. Is there a way to tell how severe my potential celiac is from the results above? What are the chances I will have the biopsy and come back negative and we have to keep searching for a cause?

      I agree christina, there is definitely many contributing factors! I have the pain today, my pelvis, hips and thighs ache! No idea why. But i have been sitting at work for 3 days so im thinking its my back. This disease is very mysterious (and frustrating) but not always to blame for every pain.

      "her stool study showed she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that." The wording of this part of the sentence does not make any sense at all. I don't mean to insult you, but is English your first language? This part of the sentence sounds like it was generated by translation software.

      What kind of stool test was done? Can you be more specific? 
    • mishyj
      Perhaps I should also have said that in addition to showing a very high response to gluten, her stool study showed that she had extreme reactions to everything achievement on it long course of microbials to treat that.
