He has been told to steer away from tea, coffee, fruit juices etc as he has an acid build-up problem causing him to have chest pains (which are being further investigated.)

He has been drinking just milk or water.. is there anything else he can have??

what about fruit teas? I like elderflower and raspberry

SmartArseCoveredinCobwebs · 03/10/2007 12:28

Are cordials any good? Like the Bottlegreen ones: Lemongrass & ginger, Elderflower and such?

Poor him - sounds miserable.

smoothies / milk-based drinks?

Moomin · 03/10/2007 12:33

mint tea very good for the digestive system as well

lulu25 · 03/10/2007 12:39

and fennel tea

i think milk is actually a bit acidic.

ShinyHappyPurpleSeveredHeads · 03/10/2007 12:46

Milk is acidic? I though it was stomach-calming.. as in Milk of Magnesia?

He has bought a Bottlegreen variety. Thanks SmartArse. Thanks all.

Green tea I was adviced to try this when I had shocking indegestion (got rushed to hospital once thinking I was dying )
It calmed it down a lot

InMyHumbleOpinion · 03/10/2007 12:48

mint cordial?

pyjamagirl · 03/10/2007 12:52

Chocolate milk

'Tick Tock' Rooibos tea - (tastes very much like normal tea, but has no caffeine or tannin...it's lovely!! And I'm not normally a fan of weird teas)
