Coffee confirmations.

I know this has been discussed here previously, but could not find any current topics about it specifically.

Coffee, I know, in it's pure form, is safe. I drink five cups of coffee per day, minimum. I am not willing to give it up, period. That said, I would like to confirm what brands are truly safe. I've been drinking Folgers, but hate the taste, plus the CYA statement on their website about contamination is concerning to me, even if it's not technically a major deal.

What brands of coffee are 100% safe, meaning gluten free and not contaminated. I don't drink flavored coffees, I purchased a new coffee pot to be super safe, and I want to know what type of coffee grounds (Not instant) I can safely use without being unsure every time I fill my mug. I do not have Celiac symptoms, so I cannot go by symptoms to tell if I'm getting glutened or not.

Thank you so much! -RD

I'm not aware of any major coffee brands that label their coffee as gluten-free, however, it's one of those naturally gluten-free things that has a very low chance of wheat contamination.

Okay, that makes me feel better. I've been struggling to know where to turn. I haven't found any brands that are specifically gluten free, except for some odd brands containing mushrooms of all things. 🤨

Thanks for the help!

      Anyone else have intermittent left ear ringing and outer right ear pain? Both seem to happen in the evenings.

      If your son eventually becomes very symptomatic, that in itself will help keep him on the diet.  I had a friend who was diagnosed roughly the same time as me and she used to tell me a lot that she could get away with eating certain gluten containing foods.  (Not a good thing to do, but she did all the same).  In time she was unable to tolerate them anymore,  and is now very strict with her diet.   The football situation with the candy:   here in the UK at least, a lot of mainstream chocolate bars and sweets don't actually contain gluten (Bounty Bar, Snickers, Cadbury's Whirl, Crunchie etc) and you may find that that is the case where you live.

      Cross contamination issues with Food Processing Companies

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Soy has been on our safe list for nearly 30 years, it is gluten-free. Most soy sauces do include wheat, and should be avoided. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.       In general if you see "gluten-free" on a label in the USA, Canada, Europe, Australia, etc., it does mean that the food is safe for those with celiac disease, and it does NOT mean that there is 19ppm gluten in it, as some people might lead you to believe. Whenever a company detects gluten in the 5-19ppm (most tests can't accurately go below this level) in foods which they have labelled gluten-free, especially a USA-based company (lawsuits in the USA are far more common and easier to win in such cases), they will immediately seek to find and eliminate the source of the gluten contamination. There is a very common myth or misconception that companies don't care at all if their products test between 5-19ppm, but they definitely do because a product recall could be just around the corner should they hit the 20ppm or higher level. Many people, including myself, now have home test kits like Nima, and companies are definitely aware of this.
