I drink one cup of instant Kava coffee a day which is acid neutralized and buy it by the case from the company as it doesn’t get shelf space at local grocery stores here. I also drink low acid Tropicana orange juice. I avoid fried foods, spicy food, high fat food and acidic foods. Yet I still need my 40mg omeprazole each day. I have been on it over 30 years and tried substitutes without success. Before omeprazole I would vomit acid so I rely on it to prevent damage to my throat and stomach. No alcohol for me either as a generous serving of Mogan David wine a few years back set me up with a stomach ulcer which was very painful. I am 72 and as long as I stay this course my digestive health is tolerable.

Food Coloring is one of the worst allergens. People would be shocked by what can happen like migraines. I have an allergy to soy as well and am shocked by how many products have artificial sugars as well.

@hopeful33250 Food colorings definitely have an effect. I can remember when my son and daughter were young, a friend had a birthday party for her daughter, right around Halloween. She made a cake and tinted the icing bright orange. ALL of the mothers commented that afterward their kids were totally stimulated. One very quiet boy was even effected by it.
If it happens with children I presume it can happen with adults also.

@contentandwell I'm sure you are right about that. While we might not be over-stimulated like children, our bodies probably have similar reactions to the coloring, including the digestive tract. Teresa

@mamacita There is a book I read year ago my Doris Rapp called "Is this your child" Great book on Foods that effect children. Processed foods number one cause certain kids to be wild. Also Red food dye...

I always get white American cheese. I notice a big difference on how my body processes Yellow American cheese versus White American Cheese.
