Does Caffeine exacerbate Celiac? Does coffee/caffeine bother folks with Celiac? I don't seem

to tolerate coffee well.

Thanks, Jerry

Caffene can cause problems, but it's not necessarily celiac related. My stomach (as in the stomach itself) is very sensitive and doesn't like caffene much. Also, if one has hypoglycemia, caffiene can exacerbate low blood sugar symptoms.

Alot of people in general have problems with caffeine...it is not necessarily celiac related.

Let's just put it this way, a good cup of coffee is a great solution for constipation, celiac or not (I call them coffee enemas) :)

Besides, why would you want caffeine stains on those BEAUTIFUL teeth!!!!! :D

One cup of caffeinated beverage after 8 am will keep me up until after 1 am. Other than that, it does not bother me.

Caffeine is a stimulant and can cause everything in your body including your intestines to "move faster" which can make diarrhea worse. If your symptoms are under control, you can try it and see how much you can tolerate.

When I was tested for intolerances four years ago, one of the ones that showed up was coffee. It has never been a stimulant for me, it makes me incredibly sleepy instead (and sleeping pills will keep me up all night)!

Hubby avoids caffeine of coffee and colas due to it's "flushing" properties.

Coffee tears me up also...especially if I am drinking it on an empty stomach. Now I pretty much just drink it on weekends, when I am going to be around the house and don't worry so much about the effects. I think the acid is partly to blame, my GI doc recommended against drinking much coffee, or red wine for that matter, because it can exacerbate GERD symptoms.

It's too bad though...a good cup of coffee is like the nectar of the gods...decaf isn't quite so hard on the stomach, but it just doesn't make me happy...

I love my coffee! :D However, if I drink too much it does affect my acid reflux :( But it has never caused 'D' or any other Celiac related symptoms, and I get "D" very easily with the slightest amount of gluten.

Perhaps it's the milk or sugar that's added that's causing the problems, or you may be sensitive to the coffee bean.

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By Aussienae · Posted

      Mine is definitely triggered by inflammation and stress! I do also have arthritis in my spine, but the pain is more in my pelvic area. Im sure i have other food intolerances or other autoimmune isues but the more I focus on it and see doctor after doctor, it just gets worse.  Best thing is get of Gluten! (I also avoid lactose). Try to limit stress and anything that causes inflammation in your body.

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By ButWhatCanIEat · Posted

      Good morning,   I got an email about replies to this post. Some of my doctors had blamed a slipped disc for the pain I had and that contributes, but after meeting with a gastroenterologist AGAIN and trying some lifestyle modifications, I found out I have IBS and can't tolerate corn or excessive fructose to any degree. Cutting out corn AFTER having cut out all gluten containing products was a real pain but I feel much better now!

      Isolated DPG-Iga

      By trents · Posted

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.

      Lymph nodes

      By Soleihey · Posted

      Has anyone experimenced enlarged lymph nodes with celiac? Both in the neck and groin area. Imaging of both areas have said that lymph nodes are reactive in nature. However, they have been present for months and just wondering how long this may take to go down. Been gluten-free for about two months. Blood counts are normal.
