Flavored Coffee Creamers

I've gone and glutened myself again! I've had D for going on 3 days now. Luckily it isn't compounded with the stomach ache or nausea. I'm trying to figure out how I did it though. 2 things I can think of... one is flavored coffee creamer that I bought to put in my cream of rice, the other is eating a salad and side of mashed potatos at a restaurant. I read the label on the creamer and it looked ok to me... but I'm learning that that doesn't mean anything!!

As far as I know, Coffeemate Liquid flavored creamers were ok the last i checked. What brand did you use?

My motto: when in doubt, suspect restaurant cc. :P:lol:

CoffeeMate now has a gluten free label, at least on the liquid refrigerated variety. I have not seen the coconut cream yet, but look for gluten free in green on the back. Nestle is good that way.

My guess is cc from the restaurant. I have had the flavored creamers (not that flavor) and not had problems. Hope you feel better soon.

I just rechecked the label and it does have the gluten-free green thing on the back. (having a "duh!" moment!)

I guess it was the restaurant... but I've never had it hit me late and last long like this before.

      @sillyyak52, If it makes you feel any better, I have a sibling who thinks the dinner table (at fine dining restaurants, and less formal pub grub settings etc.) is a personal buffet table and dips into the food of whoever is sitting beside or opposite to them just to get a taste (no plate is safe!) ... never asks for permission ... and has no consideration of gluten cross contamination even though I've explained it diplomatically with articles, pictures of dermatitis herpetiformis (which I've had for years) like @knitty kitty and I both suggest you do. I avoid that sibling at restaurants now and sit at the opposite end of the table out of arms reach! I've had similar treatment at a recent siblings 60th BBQ with family and friends (brought my own food and burger), where I was told (in a very rude manner) "tough luck, there's nowhere safe ... just cook your burger on the BBQ" which was cross contaminated ... I stood my ground and asked for a clean frying pan to cook my burger safely and separately.

      Can food allergies like milk and soy flatten villi?

      knitty kitty makes a good point. Avocados are high in histamines. So are bananas. Both also trigger histamine production in the body when consumed so there's a double whammy with those two foods for those struggling with histamine intolerance/MCAS

      3 years with Celiac, now I appear fine.

      @Sharke, The updated guidelines for a gluten challenge are to eat ten grams of gluten per day for two weeks minimum.  Lesser amounts of gluten (3 grams) don't provoke an immune response strong enough that the antibodies leave the gastrointestinal tract and get into the blood where they can be measured in tTg blood tests.   Have no doubt that the antibodies made in the small intestine are doing damage there, even if you don't suffer severe symptoms, yet. Did you react to barley prior to going gluten free? Have you been checked for chronic autoimmune gastritis which is another autoimmune disease that sometimes occurs with Celiac Disease? Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Thiamine deficiency (Gastrointestinal Beriberi) can cause constipation and/or diarrhea, abdominal pain, and weight loss.   Thiamine Deficiency Disorders https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8451766/

      @sillyyak52, Count another one in the same boat!  My family has always been in denial.  They said my tummy aches were a ploy to miss school.  My parents passed from health problems associated with uncontrolled Celiac Disease (Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm and Glioblastoma brain tumor).  My sister still has her head buried in the sand.   I agree with @Rogol72, try the consequences of untreated celiac disease shock treatment.  Sometimes people are just scared of having to change their comfortable lifestyle.
