After surgery, coffee made my stomach too acidic so I added a lot of skim milk to coffee when I drank it. It helps so much with the acidity. I drink decaf since it isn’t a diuretic like caffeine.
Again, caffeine is not a diuretic. Science says so. For a week or two when you haven’t been drinking it you will rid yourself of an extra ounce or two, that’s it! And once you are drinking it regularly it’s not one at all.

It’s an urban myth. Here’s the link to the science that shows proof—

I do coffee all the time mixed with protein in the mornings since im not always hungry and need breakfast. I hated the taste of cofee before that so the idea of decaf to me seems pointless.
