如果你在准备晚饭时不需要考虑饮食对你的尿频影响，那么你是幸运的。有典型膀胱过度活动症的人一定需要考虑一下，什么可以吃，什么可以喝。因为一些食物及饮料可以加重膀胱刺激症状。
1.吃这些食物，不要吃有的特定食物
每一个膀胱过度活动症的患者都有自己的特殊性，一些引起膀胱过度活动的食物，可能不会引起其他人尿频。但是某些特定的食物，饮料通常会引起膀胱过度活动，这些食物，饮料是大多数膀胱过度活动患者都需要避免的。
含枸橼酸水果，橙子，橘子，柠檬，菠萝，凤梨，酸橙，西柚，橙汁，橘子汁，及这些水果汁都是酸性水果，这些水果可刺激膀胱，引起尿频。可以考虑非酸性食物，如香蕉，梨，草莓等水果。一些人可以试喝低酸性的橙汁，苹果汁。
西红柿，膀胱过度活动的患者要不吃西红柿及番茄酱，沙拉酱（含番茄）。西红柿可刺激膀胱，加重尿频。一些杂货店会买一些低酸性番茄酱制品。或者你可以选择梨，或蓝莓。
含咖啡因的饮料，一些含咖啡因的饮料，苏打水，黑茶，可刺激膀胱，引起尿频。即使一些去咖啡因的饮料仍然含有少量咖啡因。尿频，尿急的人可喝绿茶及不含咖啡因的饮料。
巧克力，巧克力也是含有咖啡因的食物，如果你还没有准备好戒掉巧克力，那么少吃一点巧克力。
含苏打食物，含人工甜味剂的食物可以刺激膀胱，导致尿急，尿频。另外这些饮料有碳酸，也可以刺激膀胱，导致尿频。口渴时选择水，喝其他不含枸橼酸的饮料。
其他含有人工甜味剂的饮料，这些饮料会让你感觉尿急，想立刻上厕所的感觉。
辛辣的食物，辛辣的食物可导致尿急，尿频。但有些人不会。如果你吃辛辣食物后尿急尿频，那么吃一些少辣的食物。
如果你不知道你喜爱的食物是否有刺激膀胱的作用，你又不愿放弃这种食物，那么你先停止食用该食物一周，一周后再吃此食物。如果尿频，尿急症状不出现，你可能吃这种食物是安全的。
2. 多吃含纤维的食物。
多吃含纤维较多的食物，因为纤维可使你的肠道功能正常，规律。便秘可增加腹压及膀胱压力，加重尿急，尿频症状。看看你吃的食物是否含有足够的纤维以避免便秘。以下食物含有较多膳食纤维。
全麦面包，或意大利面。
燕麦和麸麦片
新鲜蔬菜和水果
3.明智的管理你的饮水量
管理你的液体摄入量，达到一个合适的平衡。喝水太多，会引起膀胱过度活动。但是喝水太少，高浓缩尿液可刺激膀胱，引起尿急，尿频。尿液浓缩，容易滋生细菌，导致泌尿系感染。设定一个每天喝6杯水的目标。喝水及蔓越莓汁，葡萄汁，苹果汁，这些饮料对膀胱的作用有益。
因此你需要改变你的膳食。去除那些刺激膀胱的食物，喝一定量的水，吃较多的膳食纤维。但是，饮食并不是能够解决一切膀胱过度活动症状。和你的大夫谈谈抑制膀胱过度活动的策略。你的大夫通常会建议你做一些检查，排除一些其他疾病。你可能也需要一些药物来帮助你解决膀胱过度活动症。

If your bladder is not the first thing that springs to mind when planning your dinner menu, consider yourself fortunate. People who have overactive bladder syndrome (OAB) typically do need to consider their situation when deciding what to eat or drink, since certain foods and beverages can trigger their symptoms.
Experts always caution that every bladder is individual. What triggers your overactive bladder may not be the same thing that triggers someone else’s. But there are some foods most people should try avoiding because they’re commonly associated with triggering OAB:
Citrus fruits. Oranges, tangerines, lemons, limes and grapefruit are acidic, which can irritate your bladder. (Pineapple, too.) That goes for juice from citrus fruits, too. Switch to a nonacidic fruit like bananas, pears, or berries. Some people can also tolerate reduced-acid versions of orange juice and other juices, and some people tolerate apples and apple juice just fine, too, as another alternative.
Tomatoes. Say goodbye to tomatoes and products made from tomatoes, like salsa and spaghetti sauce. They’re also irritating and can make OAB worse. Some groceries sell low-acid tomato products, or you could opt for a fruit like pears or blueberries.
Drinks containing caffeine. You may have to avoid coffee, some sodas, and black tea, substances notorious for containing caffeine, which unfortunately can be a bladder irritant. And even the decaf versions still contain small amounts of caffeine. Switch to green tea or another caffeine-free drink.
Chocolate. Brace yourself. Chocolate also contains caffeine, so it’s another item to avoid. If you just can’t bring yourself to give up chocolate, try eating only small amounts.
Diet soda. Some research suggests the aspartame that sweetens diet soft drinks may also lead to more frequent urges to urinate. Plus, they’re carbonated, which is another possible OAB trigger. Opt for water or non-citrus fruit juice to wet your whistle.
Other drinks and foods with artificial sweeteners. The artificial sweeteners may make you feel like you need to rush to the bathroom more often.
Spicy foods. Again, this can vary from person to person. But if a spicy food causes problems for you, try something with a little less heat.
Reluctant to give up some favorite foods even though you don’t know for sure how they will affect your bladder? Try eliminating one item at a time for one week, then reintroducing it. If your symptoms don’t reappear, you’re probably safe to start eating that food again.
Eat more fiber. It’s advice you’ve probably heard before—for a variety of reasons. One particularly good reason to boost your fiber intake is because it can keep your bowels functioning properly and regularly. Constipation tends to make OAB symptoms worse by putting additional pressure and stress on your bladder.
Take a good look at your diet to see if you’re eating enough high-fiber foods to ward off constipation. Good sources of dietary fiber include:
Whole grain breads and pastas
Oatmeal and bran cereals
Fresh vegetables and fruits.
Managing your fluid intake can be a delicate balancing act. If you drink too much, you can trigger your overactive bladder. But if you drink too little, your highly concentrated urine can also irritate your bladder—and also provide a breeding ground for bacteria that might lead to a urinary tract infection. Set a manageable goal of about six glasses of fluid per day. Try to drink mostly fluids that are gentle on your bladder, such as water or cranberry juice or even grape or apple juice.
So you’ve made all the typical modifications to your diet. You’ve eliminated your trigger foods and made an effort to drink plenty of water and eat lots of fiber. But you’re still constantly rushing off to the bathroom. Diet changes can’t fix everything, though. Talk to your doctor about strategies to retrain your bladder. Your doctor may always want to make sure that nothing else is contributing to your particular case, so you may need a physical exam to rule out other problems. You may also be a good candidate for certain medications to help your bladder function more normally.
