Decaffeinated tea a diuretic?
I know caffeine in coffee is diuretic, but can it actually irritate the bladder? Received k-cup brewer as a gift. Have noticed only on days I drink a cup that I have to go more and more urgently. Caffeinated tea & other drinks don't have that effect?
4-5 hours after drinking coffee(decaf) or iced tea I start feeling jittery, heart rate goes up, feel weak in my legs&arms,and kind of dizzy. I cant figure out is it due to caffeine or due to its diuretic properties?Why do symptoms appear 4-5 later?
