Hello there,

Cutting out Diet Coke is a really good idea. Not only does it contain caffiene (a known GI trigger for loads of people), but also contains artificial sweetner to replace the sugar and the carbonation can be hard on touchy tummies.

I used to drink flat gingerale, and had no problems. I also used to mix flat gingerale with craberry juice, as it is the only juice that doesn't cause problems for me.

If she is desperate for pop, always avoid Diet pop and caffiene loaded pop. Tell her to opt for something like Sprite or Gingerale instead, preferably flattened if she is sensitive to all the bubbles.

Good luck!
--Steph
