Glutened By Dd Coffee/nature's Path Cereal/sundown Vits?

I'm being glutened by something in the mornings and can't figure out what it is! Has anyone had problems with any of these:

 

  • Dunkin Donuts Original Blend ground coffee
  • Nature's Path Envirokidz cereal (the Choco Chimps and Cinnamon Jungle Munch flavors)
  • Sundown Naturals Daily Multiple Vitamins with Iron (small tablets)

I don't want it to be the coffee but I think it might be the coffee :(

Not the coffee. I drink several cups of "Dunk's" a day with no ill effects. I would probably not drink it from one of their restaurants because of the chance of CC. (Someone packs a dozen donuts and then uses their gluteny fingers to put a new coffee filter in the basket - that kind of thing.) But the coffee you buy in the grocery store is fine.

 

If you're new to celiac it might just be that you are not healed yet. When your guts are so inflamed just about anything can make you feel sick. It doesn't mean you're being glutened.

 

Make sure you have something in your stomach before taking vitamins. I'm amazed that a lot of folks don't seem to know that. And if you can handle putting food in your stomach before coffee, that might help too.

They all appear to be gluten free assuming you make the coffee yourself. Have you developed a corn intolerance?

Iron can be hard for anyone to digest. Take some with orange juice as vitamin c allows iron to be absorbed more easily.

If you are new like Bart mentioned, maybe you should stick to whole foods for now. You really want heal fast! That cereal is full of sugar and carbs and does not offer much in terms of nutrtional value. What do you put on it? Many new Celiacs suffer from a temorary lactose intolerance.

I hope you find your answers!

      Hi Trents-Thanks for reading and sharing insight.  We need all the help we can get and it's super appreciated.  She is currently dairy, soy and oat free and those have mostly been completely excluded from her diet since the diagnosis (we tried going back on dairy and oats at different times for a bit, didn't see a significant difference but have now cut out again just to be extra safe since her issues are so persistent.  We did cut eggs out for about 3 months and didn't notice significant difference there, either.  The only one we haven't specifically cut out completely for any portion of time is corn, however, we've kept it minimal in all of our diets for a long time.  She definitely goes 3-4 weeks without any corn products at times and still has issues, but I'm guessing that's not long enough to confirm that it isn't causing issues.   We could definitely try to go longer just to double check.  Thanks again!

      Ok so know one knows about cross reactions from yeast,corn, potatoes, eggs, quinoa ,chocolate, milk, soy, and a few more I forgot.  There all gluten free but share a similar structure to gluten proteins. I use to be able to eat potatoes but now all of a sudden I was stumped and couldn't figure it out when I got shortness of breath like I was suffocating.  Then figured it out it was the potatoes.  They don't really taste good anyways. Get the white yams and cherry red 🍠 yams as a sub they taste way better. It's a cross reaction! Google foods that cross react with celiacs.  Not all of them you will cross react too. My reactions now unfortunately manifest in my chest and closes everything up . Life sucks then we die. Stay hopeful and look and see different companies that work for you . Lentils from kroger work for me raw in the bag and says nothing about gluten free but it works for me just rinse wellllll.....don't get discouraged and stay hopeful and don't pee off god

      Hi Lily Ivy. Thanks for responding. Did you have withdrawal? If so, what was it like and for how long?

      Welcome to the forum, @Doris Barnes! You do realize don't you that the "gluten free" label does not mean the same thing as "free of gluten"? According to FDA regulations, using the "gluten free" label simply means the product does not contain gluten in excess of 20 ppm. "Certified Gluten Free" is labeling deployed by an independent testing group known as GFCO which means the product does not contain gluten in excess of 10 ppm. Either concentration of gluten can still cause a reaction in folks who fall into the more sensitive spectrum of the celiac community. 20 ppm is safe for most celiacs. Without knowing how sensitive you are to small amounts of gluten, I cannot speak to whether or not the Hu Kitechen chocolates are safe for you. But it sounds like they have taken sufficient precautions at their factory to ensure that this product will be safe for the large majority of celiacs.

      Buying choclate, I recently boght a bar from Hu Kitchen (on your list of recommended candy. It says it is free of gluten. However on the same package in small print it says "please be aware that the product is produced using equipment that also processes nuts, soy, milk and wheat. Allergen cleans are made prior to production". So my question is can I trust that there is no cross contamination.  If the allergy clean is not done carefully it could cause gluten exposure. Does anyone know of a choclate brand that is made at a facility that does not also use wheat, a gluten free facility. Thank you.
