Question 6

which better drinking natural orange juice or pipse?

Question 7

why should i drink orange juice if i haven't felt the baby move?

Accepted Answer

Sugar content: Drinking a cold or sweet drink can sometimes help perk up a sleeping baby.  If you haven't felt your baby move for a few hours a light meal or juice can help.  If you still aren't feeling your baby move, you should call your doctor to have the baby's heartbeat monitored.

Question 8

can i stink orange juice while on omnicef (cefdinir)?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Known food and drug interactions with Omnicef (cefdinir) include multivitamins with iron. Orange juice should be fine - I do not see any evidence that drinking orange juice will decrease its effectiveness. You may consider eating or taking a probiotic (like yogurt) to  re-establish your healthy gut flora. (reference: lexicomp).

Question 9

Accepted Answer

Low FOD-MAP diet: Yes, as can many healthy foods.  You are well advised to look up the low fod-map diet and make appropriate dietary substitutions to reduce gassiness and bloating.

Question 10

can drinking too much orange juice give you pimples?

Accepted Answer

It might: Some dermatologists advise their acne patients to stay away from acidic citric juices, and others feel that the high sugar content may also make acne worse. If you are going to drink orange juice, you might be better with getting oranges and squeezing them yourself, since it is less acidic and doesn't have all the added sugar or sweetners as well as pasteurization.
