Second Cup

Recommended Posts

I read the ingredients on the hot chocolate and thought it was okay. Except for some reason I missed the "artificial flavor". Well, I had a small cup of hot chocolate and didn't even get halfway through when I started to prespire heavily and get extreme pains in my stomach. Then I was running for the mall bathroom with "D" and nausea. Be ye warned the flavor is what it is in.

Do you know what brand this was?

There are some hot chocolates that ARE safe... someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that Starbucks has a gluten-free hot chocolate...

I make my hot chocolate from real organic cocoa, sugar and organic milk... can't go wrong there!

I thought artificial flavor was gluten-free? I thought it was natural flavor that could contain gluten.

I know that some artificial flavors are gluten-free but obviously this one is not. The brand is Second Cups own brand of hot chocolate. It is called Second Cup something or other, you can only get it at their stores.

I've never heard of that brand... sorry you had a reaction...

I think Second Cup is a Canadian company and that is their own brand. I was so sick and my stomach still hurts from it, I honestly thought it was okay but it didn't take more than 5 min for me to have a violent reaction.

      I think most of us, when we first got our diagnosis, imagined that going gluten free would be the magic the bullet that would restore us to perfect health. We soon find out that it usually isn't quite that simple and that celiac disease has long fingers.

      Thanks! I still have much to learn, I'd hoped going gluten-free would be a magic bullet and I'm learning my system is still very sensitive which is overwhelming and discouraging at times. Thanks for the yogurt tip! There is comfort in knowing that this is common during early healing and I'm not alone!

      Thanks so much for the response. Are you usually able to pinpoint a trigger when you get the pain again? What I didn’t share in my earlier post is that I also usually eat out on weekends (though I share celiacs/needs to be gluten-free) and I’ve also been under a lot of stress lately in my personal life. While I’m speculating that it’s the wine it could certainly be a number of things. Do you ever notice the pain more when you are stressed? Learning so much about the brain/gut connection and celiacs. Thanks, there is comfort in hearing others have experienced similar symptoms.

      This was my main symptom. I still get it from time to time. Also feels like a burning pain on the upper abdomen. I think the wine could definitely cause the pain to be worse. There are do many things I still can't eat.

      Yes and this is true of gluten free ready made, processed and prepackaged foods in general. In particular, hard to digest polysaccharides are commonly used in these products that give many celiacs issues and I personally don't handle some emulsifiers well. IMO, reactions to these ingredients are often mistaken for a gluten reaction.
