I get a headache when I drink coffee. Am I intolerant or allergic to it? What's the diff. between both terms?

Answer 1

Intolerant means... It sometimes affects you, but allergic means that your body can't handle it. A headache is not an allergic reaction of coffee, your senses are in control of that, your coffee is to strong or try a different flavor.

Answer 2

You must be my reverse side... I got headache when i can't take my cup of coffee.

You are not allergic to it, maybe your body react to it's soluble compounds called caffeine. Better drink a decaffeinated coffee or better have some juice instead.

Answer 3

fresh coffee will get rid of a head ache,just the smell.ask someone with pms
at least then you'll know where the head ache came from when you get head slapped for asking !!! lol
