Tart cherry juice sounds pretty acidic, which can also cause symptoms. Just one glass of something that acidic would give me GI symptoms, not to mention 6!!

Why can't you drink water? I drink it at room temp, and I do better.

Thank you. I notice the sorbitol content in cherries is rather high and I always avoid sorbitol in foods where the ingredients are clearly displayed so I am left wondering if I am reacting to this.

Before finding this thread, I had no idea cherries contained sorbitol.

I had not thought of tart cherry juice as being acidic, I guess because it worked for me for so long, allowing me to increase my fluid intake. Makes sense though.

When I drink water, even at room temperature, I react with a sensation of indigestion and some bloating. This has always been a mystery to me but even before I developed IBS four years ago, I was never one to drink water as it bothered me, in the form of indigestion.
