Sort of...: Caffeine is bad for hemorrhoids only in the sense that it can cause upset or more frequent bowel movements, which can make it harder for hemorrhoids to heal when inflamed. Probably best to hold off when they're inflamed, and concentrate on good, healthy, high fiber diet.

44yr fm: Trying to diet and reduce sugar, so started drinking caffeine free herbal tea (Celestial seasonings, because I have caffeine sensitivity) instead of juice. Now it gives heart flutters, so does this mean these teas actually have caffeine?
