Is there a list of food that have NO Citric Acid? Like I checked out just about every jelly jar for my toast and all have citic stuff. I put no sugar apple sauce on my toast. It was ok.
With the acid reflux acting up, I have to watch out for caffeine and citric acid foods.
My mango green tea is bye-bye. I thought I was doing good.
I really enjoy coffee, and I tried Folgers caffenine free but it still made me queezes so I stop. I need something warm in the morning to drink to help loosing me up if you know what I am talking about. hee,hee.

Hi Deb
Coffiee, chocolate and fruits can contribute to more acid within the body. If you must remember the saying, "everything in moderation".

Hi Deb
Here is a wonderful website for you to read. I would print out their PH-Acid chart and place it on your fridge. Once you learn the chart, you can make wiser choices regarding food intake.

Thanks Risa,
I found some decaf coffee that actually taste pretty good. Of course it is not going to keep me up during classes for fall. I have been able to dilute my caffeenine diet pepsi where it does not bother me, but that is just for one time during the day.

Deb,
I thought I remembered seeing an ad or something on tv for a brand of coffee with lower acidity. I will check when I go to the store and see if I can find it. Hope you are doing better.

Thanks, I would appreciate that. I love my coffee and at least I can still drink it even though it may not have any caffeine....
As for jellies for toast, they all seem to have citric acid. back to using apple sauce unsweeting.
I was able to eat a whole sweet potatoe today for supper, yeah!!!! I felt like I ate some real food beside rice and plain chicky. 
I did notice if I drink the Lipton unsweeten tea without lemon mess that on an empty tummy it will all come back up. I had about 3 swallow while I was trying to make it kind of weak but not too weak and started cooking my potatoe in microwave. Before my potato was done, I was upchucking the tea. Yesterday, I was able to drink it but I had my dinner ready at the same time. I gues live and learn the hard way. Glad I was at home.

Deb,
I found the coffee at the store. It is called Folgers Simply Smooth -Gentle on the Stomach. Might be worth a try to see if it helps......

Thanks, I pretty much gave up on any coffee. I tried the decaf flogers and did not agree. Not sure if it was simply smooth. I am bascially, drinking green caffeeine free tea and water until this stomach get back on track.
Thanks again.
Maybe later, I will start to investigate, hee, hee on some easier tummy coffee.
