dietary changes may help improve urinary incontinence allowing you to regain bladder control. eliminating alcohol sweetener substitutes (those containing aspartame) and caffeine-containing foods and drinks may be very helpful. this is especially true for persons who drink large amounts of coffee and/or tea and complain of frequency with urge urinary incontinence. caffeine is found in milk chocolate soft drinks over-the-counter medications and is used as a flavoring agent in many baked goods and processed foods (although you won't find it listed on the labels. ) even “de-caf” products contain some caffeine. products that say “caffeine-free” do not contain caffeine. taper your caffeine intake slowly to avoid migraine-type headache.
