Foods That Trigger Lupus Flares Diet matters even if you aren’t ill, so of course it matters if you are! No amount of processed food, caffeine, pop and artificially stuffed foods are going to support your immune system or way back to health. If we put dirty oil in our car is that going to help it run better? NO!! The same goes with our body.So here’s the deal. Food does matter (and so does drinking water!). What about drinks? The no no’s …Speaking of common sense, coffee, tea and cola all contain caffeine. We all know that this is not healthy, and it is especially true for those living with lupus. It’s time to kick that habit and the time is now. These caffeinated products are toxic substances for the body to metabolize. By the way this includes decaffeinated coffee as well! Sorry, the best substitute for all of us is water!And… that’s not even taking into consideration that caffeine is a stimulant which can increase your stress level. Stress is a very, very strong trigger for lupus flare up’s so make your health number one eliminate all caffeine from your diet. If you experience headaches from caffeine withdrawal, know that it will pass. If necessary, slowly eliminate caffeinated drinks from your diet to avoid the severity of withdrawal symptoms
