Soda helps with cramps?

[Ryan245]

Does drinking soda help with your period? Why or why not?

[MindYourEyes]

I haven’t drank soda in over 9 years. I don’t recall that ever helping me. If anything drinking peppermint or chamomile tea always helps :0

[Cmasterson]

No, I haven't found drinking anything in particular that helps with cramps unless im going out lol aka wine. However i know heat helps.

[Ryan245]

What do you mean by heat helps

[Cmasterson]

A bath, a hot water bottle etc.

[ScarletSky]

I have found the only things that help would be a heating pad and a hot bath

[samhradh_leannan]

No, in fact sugar and caffeine can make cramps worse.

[Tiffers2154]

Hell no. It makes bloating worse.

[DizzyDesii]

Caffeine makes it worse but i still drink it. decaffeinated coffee helps tho

[yucychan]

Fizzy drinks don't help. Should go for warm drinks instead

[PondyPand]

Chocolate all the way. Not a fan of fizzy drinks

[Moonchild714]

It's the caffeine.

[Drooogie4]

Soda helps settle your stomach a little. But not with cramps. Cramps can't even be well managed with pain meds.

I wish. chocolate is the way to go though

[azzntittiz]

I don't think it could, never tried it but I think it would make me more bloated and uncomfortable.
