I have been in remission for nearly 3 months.... That is until last week..... When I starting consuming Sobe Lifewater.....


Personally I love the stuff... It tastes great, but it gave me the worse diarrhea I have had in nearly 1.5 years..... Could it have been something I ate? Yea, but I truly think the Lifewater is the culprit..

Diarrhea doesn't only mean you're flaring but it doesn't mean that the ingredients in the drink couldn't be causing the diarrhea either. How the heck much are you drinking of it? It wouldn't cause you to flare.


Are you on maintenance meds or no meds....

Sobe Lifewater kinda makes me crampy sometimes. It might be the ginseng, maybe they use too much.

Smar***er does that to me. Aloe juice was great till I found out too much of it brings on D, then unsweetened green tea, but it seemed to cause problems too.

Back to water and grape juice since Elaine says it is SCD legal.

I'm not surprised. Like most drinks on the market today, it is filled with chemicals. I tried looking up the ingredients on the Internet; however, it seems that different flavors have different ones, some of which can definitely cause diarrhea or trigger a flare.
