Non-alcoholic beer

Is it ok to drink non-alcoholic beer?

I haven't tried it, yet. As an ex drunk it was, together with NA wine, what I had with dinner......:mad: Everyone is different, and maybe you can tolerate one with a Prelief. I will try once/if things settle down for a while. It's not so much the alcohol that is the problem, it's the CO-2 (Bubbles).

I so miss the taste of beer! My mouth waters every time I see a commercial for it and lately that has been very often since I have been watching baseball Playoffs and every single commercial seems to be about beer! LOL. I have tried Root beer w/ice and I seem to do ok with that so I'm wondering if I would do ok w/a beer? Hmmm...

So it's actually the bubbles that harm our bladders, not the alcohol itself?

I'm not saying the Alc is not a problem, don't know enough to say that (yet). I do know any carbonated beverage is a *caution*.

Thanks Oscar. I read some of your posts and I'm so glad you are feeling better! Yay!

I know carbonated drinks are a no-no for most, but I tried Root beer because it is on the "try it" list. I wonder why root beer would be ok to try and not just a regular ol' Coke or Pepsi? Strange. This diet confuses me sometimes. LOL.

Not feeling too hot today.....Darpaz finally wearing off I think. Oh well.

Diets are funny. Your stomach is like a beaker at chemistry lab. You put a whole bunch of different things in and a lot of things can happen. Change one thing and something else happens. Quantities make a difference too.....If you remember the PH experiment, it was the last drop that changed everything....Too many permutations.

On top of that food tolerances have thresholds. A lot of people here can have one of something, but not two. It's a matter of starting strict and conservative and then carefully changing one thing at a time and seeing what happens. Even then something else may change and you don't know it.

At least, that's how I'm doing it.....It can, and will, be frustrating at times.

I'm sorry you weren't feeling so hot yesterday :( I hope today is a better day for you! Hang in there! There are better days to come for all of us!!

Oscar was the only one that replied to this so I guess nobody has tried non-alcoholic beer. It must be a no-no.:(
