I can't tolerate most wine, but I do sip Moscato with a flavored seltzer or tonic (about 1/2 & 1/2) I also can enjoy a good Gin & Tonic with lots of lime syrup and a bit of spearmint extract. After all the whole idea of being as healthy as possible is To Live Life! a tip I learned years ago also is to start every morning with a bowl of real oatmeal that has some grated ginger, cinnamon and a few raisins or walnuts. Keeping a "regular" digestion helps with reflux symptoms. Enjoy your cruise!

Thanks for your tips. I'll probably have a few drinks but will have it with peach or cherry juice, staying away from seltzer, lime and mint, which are all no no's. I also usually start my day with steel cut oatmeal with cinnamon, raisins, walnuts or almonds, bananas and/or berries, especially blueberries. I learned from the acid watcher book that almond milk cuts the acid in berries; so that's what I have with it. Sometimes I add a tiny bit of agave nectar for sweetness, and it's one of my favorite breakfasts.

I thought all alcohol was a no no for those with PN. Thought the alcohol damages the sheathing of nerves.
