Remudamom Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Dh had a couple of cups of green tea, he's never had it before. He's violently ill now, what do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tap Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Unlikely but I guess he could be allergic. More likely a coincidence and he has either food poisoning or a virus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catwoman Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 I don't know what it could be, but I hope he feels better very soon. Cat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remudamom Posted April 23, 2009 Author Share Posted April 23, 2009 He drank two cups, double strength, empty stomach. I think we have an answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catwoman Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 I was wondering about this, and did a bit of Googling. It sounds like the tea could have caused the problem. Everything I read said that you shouldn't drink green tea on an empty stomach, and that it's best to drink it with some milk and sugar in order to avoid stomach upset. I hope he feels better soon. Has he taken anything to help coat his stomach, like Gaviscon, Maalox, or Mylanta? I feel so badly for the poor guy. It's so awful to be sick to your stomach.

Kanga Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 My husband never does anything halfway either! I hope he feels better soon. I get sick if I drink strong tea on an empty stomache. I can drink coffee on an empty stomache, but that is probably because I take my coffee with max contaminants. This is probably too much information, but both can give me loose stools if I drink too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
