Does anyone have gut problems when eating pickles or drinking orange juice?

I haven't had any issues with my UC for a long time, so I wanted to come here to ask if these items have bothered any of you before.

did you get invited to a wild pickle eating/orange juice drinking party ? or have these just been on your forbidden list for a while and you're wondering if you should take the plunge ?

me, i have no problem with either one -

but parties, yes, those bother me smilewinkgrin

Lol, you and me both.

Nah, but I've had a raging craving for pickles and orange juice. I'm regretting eating/drinking them now. I know orange juice may bug me, and I've been drinking that in excess. But I wasn't sure about the pickles (which I've also eaten in excess). And no, I'm not preggers.

Reason I ask is that the foods that used to bother me before I was on LDN do not always bug me now. So I wanted to see if they bother others.

I'm not on LDN but straight up orange juice is like pure acid in my stomach and gut (and I'm in remission). So I drink Low acid Sunny D instead. No problems. But I avoid pickles like the plague. Not because of my UC but because of my Diverticuar disease (we can't have seeds of any kind).

Hey Sherry! :)

Yeah, I I figured OJ may be one of the culprits. I never know with some things anymore. It bothers me; it doesn't. This guessing is ridiculous.


Yikes. I don't know what's worse Diverticuar disease or UC.

Hey Sibby! :)

Have you done a food diary since being on LDN?

And what's worse? DD or UC? Well since I'm in remission from my UC, definitely DD at this point lol

Not lately, but having one sounds like a good idea. Thanks! My gut seems to be weird. Something one week may not affect me, then the next week, it does. Who knows. Then I have some foods I swore off that I can eat now.

That's too bad. But congrats on the remission!

OJ will give me bad heartburn now and then, but I will not touch pickles because I don't like 'em. :)

I'm beginning to think OJ is a problem for me. I had some with my breakfast a few weeks ago and a mild case of urgency an hour or two later, but i just thought it could have been the food. But, I had some more OJ this morning and within a few hours, I had an extreme case of urgency, but thankfully made it to the bathroom in time. Those were the only two times I have had this kind of urgency and the common denominator was the OJ.

Pickles are fine for me, I especially like the mini Kosher Dills. I can eat an entire jar of them!

Do pickles and orange juice bother you? Nope.
Posted 2/24/2016 6:46 PM (GMT 0)
They don't bother me at all.

Orange Juice does bother me but I have a sensitive stomach AND colon. The stomach doesn't appreciate the acidity of it. However fresh pickles do not bother me as far as I can tell. I encourage more fermented foods vs pickled for the probiotics/easy digestion/nutrients as well.

At the same time? That thought is truly cringe-worthy.

But actually I was going to say what RiceBunny just said. I think pickles are good due to the fermentation aspect of them.

I know if you eat too many pickles, you can have diarrhea. And OJ is iffy for me, but prior to yesterday, it hadn't bothered me for a while. Odd. I'm not sure what's up with me. I haven't had anything wrong today, but I haven't gone.

Lucky you! I love pickles; I think they don't like me.

well sibby, as you well know, just as in zombies, pickles are not all the same -

what exactly are you eating pickle wise ?
Posted 2/25/2016 2:21 AM (GMT 0)
@ Rice and Stud I ate Bick's Dill Pickles, so they're probably not fermented.

@Serenity Food rarely bugs me now, but I've been craving the two, but certainly no at the same time, lol.

ya, i would try REAL pickles like bubbies or homemade - worth a shot to see if it makes a difference for you -

Oohhh love a pickled onion or from the chippie a lovely pickled egg,
In fact anything pickled. In fact my new favorite pickle is a gherkin dipped in batter and deep fried awesome!
