Hi All,

Is Twinings tea gluten-free? I can't find a reference on here. The English Breakfast and Earl Grey are on my mind.

Thanks!

English Breakfast - Ceylon, Kenyan and Indian teas, no other ingred.

Earl Grey - Tea, Bergamont flavouring. (??Bergamont), no other ingred.

I don't know what the flavoring is.

Just looked it up...

Bergamont flavoring is derived from Mediterranean Oranges.

So they both should be gluten free.

I drink Twinings and Stash Teas with no problems. I checked both the websites and Stash has on their site that they are gluten free. I can't find anything about it on Twinings site. Hope that helps.

Twinings says on their FAQ's that all of their teas are gluten-free.

I didn't know there are any teas that aren't gluten free! :unsure: Are there a lot of them or are there brands to look out for that aren't safe?

The companies (Twinings) reply is inaccurate as some of their teas contain barley malt!

This thread it from 10 years ago. Companies can change ingredients and this is why is is so important to always read labels and get the most recent information available. Thanks for the heads up on the changes.

I have been  round about with teas for years before settling on Republic of Tea. The company has gluten free certified teas, and I drink 3-6 cups a day of their teas.

      For people with celiac disease and corn intolerance from it: Is salt still okay for most people?

      By Ryangf · Posted

      I haven’t had any noticeable reactions to salt so I will continue using it. I think I just freaked out when I realized this but it doesn’t cause me any discomfort- so thanks!

      Abscesses on legs

      By plumbago · Posted

      Ok, thanks. I'm so glad to hear you are in the hands of a dermatologist. I hope he/she has given you 1) a diagnosis; and 2) a plan of care with a couple of options so that you have buy-in and comfort with it. I have some ideas, but not having seen the abscesses or you in person, it doesn't really make sense for me to kind of ... speculate further. But your question was regarding gluten, and you've gotten a couple of other follow up questions and answers that are good, including the idea to keep a food diary. Let us know if we can help further or answer any other questions. I'm sorry you're going through this, it sounds very painful.

      Abscesses on legs

      By LookingForAnswers101 · Posted

      @plumbago They appear as boils. They are big, like the size of a nickel--quarter, and they hurt when I touch them. I have gone to the same derm for them over and over and she thinks my body is colonized by a bacteria, but even after using hibiclens all over my body they come back.

      Abscesses on legs

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome to the gluten-free community! It’s great to have you here. While gluten sensitivity or celiac disease can indeed cause skin issues, such as dermatitis herpetiformis (a blistering rash), abscesses in areas like the lower buttocks or thighs are less commonly linked directly to gluten. However, chronic abscesses could be a sign of an underlying immune or inflammatory condition, which might be worth discussing with a healthcare professional. Some people with gluten-related disorders also experience secondary issues like bacterial overgrowth or immune dysregulation, which could potentially contribute to recurrent infections. It’s always a good idea to explore all possible causes, including gluten sensitivity, with your doctor. In the meantime, keeping a food and symptom diary might help identify any patterns. Wishing you the best on your health journey!

      You say you have gluten sensitivity? Have you been officially diagnosed with celiac disease or do you refer to NCGS?
