Coffee Making Me Nauseous

[JoeFromSD]

I'm a long time Coffee drinker, but the last 5 years or so it's making me nauseous in the morning even when I drink it ½ hour after breakfast. Can anyone recommend any coffees that won’t do this, besides the decaf, or is that the only sure way to not be sick, the decaff? It's not acid reflux, just a slight nausea.

I'm using Folgers classic roast now

 

[JoeFromSD]

I'd sure appreciate some Info about this folks.

Have you tried adding some milk to your coffee? Do you experience slight nausea if you drink coffee later in the day? Maybe your stomach has a problem with the Folgers coffee. Have you tried another brand to see if the same thing happens?

No i drink it black, I just tried making some decaff today and feel fine.
is there a low acid, or low caffine coffee available? I still would like the caffine!
I tried using the folgers yesterday, making it only half strength, and only felt a little nauseous.

I would advise you not to drink coffee when you are hungry. Coffee on an empty stomach can cause discomfort if the mucous membrane is already hypersensitive. In this case, the secreted gastric juice, not finding an object of application, begins to irritate the walls of the stomach, causing nausea. Most likely this is the problem. On the Internet, you can find websites about healthy eating, where you can read more about this problem. I hope I helped you.
Good luck to you.

I am going to go out on a limb and say it is the coffee. Switch to a better quality coffee. The coffee you are drinking has robusta in it. I HATE robusta. It hurst my stomach, I get jittery and want to fight everyone when I drink it. I personally will not drink it ever again. Go with a brand that only uses 100 % arabica...also look for "specialty grade". Let us know if that helps.

Try adding some milk to your coffee. This will soften it and take away the bitterness.

Me too

Robusta coffees have a bitterness that Arabica coffees do not. That bitterness is also created by the caffeine content. Arabicas will have less bitterness and less caffeine. Try an Arabica.

 

[JeffD]

I think you are on to something. robusta beans. I recall friends having similar trouble with Yuban, another brand with a significant percentage of robusta beans.

 

[JeffD]

Its likely an individual thing. I know plenty of folks that love Folgers, and Yuban, and some of the new Vietnamese robusta coffees. With no issues.

 

[mateorosi]

I know me too when I drink it before having a breakfast

Try low-acid coffees like Sumatra, Tanzania Peaberry, or dark roasts . Brewing with a paper filter can also help remove oils that can cause stomach discomfort. If decaf is your only option, consider adding a splash of milk or cream to reduce acidity. Read here more about healthy options https://betterme.world/articles/fattening-foods/. Good luck!

 

[Lavarock]

Folgers is more than likely a robusta coffee. Also some instants are harsh. Have you tried an Arabica as they have the low acid Odette4 just mentioned. My suggestion would be a Kona coffee, but hey, I am partial!

It sounds like the acid is making you sick.

I have not tasted a good no-acid coffee, and I tried a few because I have acid reflux.

What I found is that cold-brewed coffee reduces acid by around 60%, so you could try that. The OXO Good Grips Cold brew maker is probably the best one, but I haven't tried all the ones on the market for obvious reasons, but most reviews favored that one, I did have a Takeya model, and it worked really well, but the OXO seems to make the coffee a tad sweeter tasting, not sure why that is. So my wife is now using the Takeya to make tea with.

Also the darker the roast the less acid.
