Coffee Drinkers

I'm going to start drinking coffee again - it's been a few years (I've been nursing a baby).

Do I have to be careful about gluten in coffee?

Could anyone recommend a good coffee bean - I have my own grinder (I actually have to go out and buy a pot it's been so long).

Also - are you able to tolerate coffee okay with your "celiac stomach"?

Thanks!

Regular coffee should be fine. Some of the flavored cofees might contain gluten, so if you want something fancy you'll have to read the ingredients. I drink cofee all the time, but mostly stick with the regular. If I want something fancy, I'll get a specialty type, like Kona, or an espresso, or I'll make it myself. I've gotten really good at making mochas with my own coffee, powdered gluten-free chocolate and cream. Doesn't bother my stomach at all, as long as I'm reasonable. I only seem to have problems with things if I go a bit overboard -a couple of cups a day are fine, but I might have problems if I drank a couple of pots!

Are regular coffee filters okay to use like Melita brand?

i don't use coffee filters, but would assume they'd be ok...just don't set them down on a gluten counter while you fill your pot :o

hooray for coffee! :D

my tummy handles it okay, as long as it isn't the first thing i take in in the morning.

i have learned that regular coffee is most always ok, but flavored coffee must be checked on, because i've seen it have gluten in it (for instance, Gevalia, which i used to drink all the time pre-diet, says all its flavored coffees contain gluten -- that says to me that i can't assume any flavored coffee is gluten-free before checking).

i like Starbucks Caffe Verona, Seattle's Best Breakfast Blend and House Blend, and i just really like Folgers Special Gourmet Dark Roast. and if i'm feeling like some flavor, i like Don Francisco's Hawaiian Hazelnut -- i think that's the name of it.

i make mochas too! they are so yummy. i do hershey's chocolate syrup and milk and whipped cream on top. mmmmmm....

Thank you, coffee drinkers. I got my pot today, filters and Eight O Clock Bean coffee beans (acc. to my gluten-free guide they're safe).

I had two cups this evening...and am having trouble falling asleep...hee, hee. :D

      Waiting on biopsy results but wanted opinion on bloodwork

      By trents · Posted

      By far, the most likely cause of villous atrophy in the Marsh 3 range is celiac disease but there are other possible causes. Did you also have positive antibody tests? My guess is that when you see your physician he/she will declare you to have celiac disease. Of course, the ultimate proof of the pudding will be if you experience definite improvement in symptoms after going gluten free which, since you have now completed testing, you should begin to do.

      Waiting on biopsy results but wanted opinion on bloodwork

      By Lynnard · Posted

      Hi again - I received the biopsy results but haven't had follow up appointment with Dr. yet.  Wondering if you could comment on this: "Duodenum, random, Biopsy (Cold Forceps): MILD VILLOUS BLUNTING WITH PROMINENT INTRAEPITHELIAL LYMPHOCYTES, CONSISTENT WITH SPRUE (MARSH TYPE 3A). See Comment. Negative for Infectious Organisms, Dysplasia or Malignancy. COMMENT: While characteristic, the histologic findings are not diagnostic for gluten-sensitive enteropathy / celiac disease. A number of additional entities can enter into the differential diagnosis of celiac disease based on the histologic features, including tropical sprue, bacterial overgrowth / stasis, unclassified sprue, specific food allergies, many drugs including NSAIDs, olmesartan and immune checkpoint inhibitors, and a wide range of autoimmune diseases including adult-onset autoimmune enteropathy, diabetes, thyroiditis, lupus and multiple sclerosis and occasionally common variable immune deficiency. History of drug take, celiac serologies, HLA-DQ status and response to a gluten-free diet might be a key for a definitive diagnosis" They say "consistent with Sprue (Marsh Type 3A)" and then comment that the findings are not diagnostic for celiac disease.  I thought Marsh type 3 was conclusive (and I know that 3A is the best outcome as it relates to intestinal damage). Is this just normal caveat language or am I missing something?  I had appt scheduled for tomorrow but Dr. is sick and now rescheduled to over a week from now.  Appreciate any insight you can offer in the mean time.  Thanks!!

      Enegy level extremely low

      Hello Scott, I did lose weight at the beginning of diagnosis and I know that it will take time to put on the weight I did lose. I think I have no appetite because this has been a roller coaster of emotions and a Big change on my body and its out of whack mentally and pysically. I think I am just depressed to be honest.

      How long can symptoms take to appear?

      By trents · Posted

      It's easy to forget that it's not only the concentration of gluten in a given food item that's significant but also the total amount of gluten we consume over a period of time. This thing and that thing may meet the gluten-free requirement of not exceeding 20 ppm but if we eat enough of those things in a reasonably short amount of time it can have a cumulative effect because our bodies aren't given enough time to clear the gluten we have already consumed. Just curious. Did you know the fries were wheat breaded when you ate them?

      Hi! I try to steer clear of dairy and I cut out oats at the same time I did gluten products. It may be that something I had recently that was labeled as gluten-free contained oats. I am just so confused as to why I didn’t react when I know I ate wheat flour (breaded fries) but then reacted to something else 9 days later. Maybe you’re right and that it was the accumulation of things.
