Kevin, I doubt that it would be the caffeine unless you have developed an ulcer. since you never had the problem before. Do you put milk in them? Could be that.
yes, coke doesn’t contain as much caffeine as most people think.
wow. it’s amazing how one feels when one gains some idea of the limits of the human body. I mean, 58 no-doz? that’s a pretty small number, but now I know to only take 50 lol
Caffeine can also cause stomach issues if you have gastritis - similar symptoms to having an ulcer, but not as serious (caught early). At three weeks, it’s really time to see a doctor. In the mean time, cut out caffeine, chocolate, dairy, fatty foods, rich foods - that could help. (I’m not a doctor, would love to play one on TV, but been there / done that with the symptoms.)
I think your site is great - thanks for all of the information re: caffeine contents of various drinks and food. For some reason, drinking coffee or tea in the morning now makes me sick to my stomach — never ever had this problem before (the last 3 weeks or so). Could it be from the caffeine? I know coffee contains more caffeine than tea, yet I get this reaction drinking either one now. Any thoughts?
PS: from your chart, it looks like I would have to drink 3 cans of Classic Coke in the am to match the caffeine in one cup of coffee — could that be right? Jeeze, I always thought Coke had more caffeine in it than that!
