Guest guest Posted November 21, 2010 Report Share Posted November 21, 2010 Geez - Could that list be any worse? I have nightly, painful bladder spasms and never put it together with my coffee intake ... I've also never really felt too badly for myself, except now. Stopping coffee and chocolate??? Ikes ... think the spasms may be worth it ;-) Kathy thought I would share this... This is an article on foods to avoid if you have an overactive bladder (and/or an easily irritated bladder as most of us do). I thought it was an interesting list, some of the things I knew but some of it I didnt so thought I would share http://www.care2.com/greenliving/10-foods-to-avoid-if-you-have-an-overactive-bla\ dder.html?page=2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2010 Report Share Posted November 22, 2010 Any caffeine is horrible for people with bladder issues. But, moderation is the key. I avoid caffeine, but don't deny myself if I crave something that happens to have it. I drink decaf. It tastes the same. It's not caffeine free, but does have less than regular.

Guest guest Posted November 22, 2010 Report Share Posted November 22, 2010 Sheesh! That is a tough no-no list! Even at five years old, Sofia likes to drink decaf tea. Being Chinese, maybe it's in her genes.; ) We'll have to try to find a good herbal alternative for her. And who doesn't love chocolate??!!

Guest guest Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 I know!! LOL Well, its a difficult list to avoid but the way I am looking at it is, something to keep in mind and notice if these items effect me in a negative way. If so, those I will get rid of or at least limit. Or if I notice I am suddenly having difficulty, I can look and see if I have been consuming some of these in excess and cut back, realizing it is what I am eating and drinking rather than attributing it to neurological decline. Congratulations on your soups!! Subject: Re: thought I would share this...
