Can you have hot chocolate with an ulcer?

Answer 1

Eating chocolate may aggravate ulcers by contributing toward heartburn, so cutting chocolate from the diet may help. The College of Family Physicians of Canada indicates that avoiding both caffeine and milk both may help heal an ulcer, and chocolate contains both. A 2-oz serving of semi-sweet chocolate provides 44 mg of caffeine, and 2 oz of bittersweet chocolate contains 68 mg, according to Amano Artisan Chocolate. The National Digestive Diseases Information Clearinghouse reveals that some people think drinking milk or eating milk products such as chocolate may help ulcers heal. Although this may temporarily make the stomach feel better, it can ultimately worsen symptoms because it can trigger heartburn.

Answer 2

Well, first off it depends on how bad your ulcer is. I have one, but I can eat chocolate in moderation. The caffeine inside of chocolate is what causes the pain, so white chocolate is acceptable. I have found that if I keep my diet restricted to what will not hurt the ulcer for a long time, I can eat chocolate without any difficulty.

Of course, if you want to eat it anyway, you can just take a Zantac to go along with it
