Non Dairy, gluten-free Flavored Coffee Creamer?


Miss.Slick

Recommended Posts

Miss.Slick Newbie

I have only started the gluten free diet recently, and I have been desperately looking for a gluten free, dairy free coffee creamer with some flavor, I really don't care for just soy milk in my coffee, I find it's to thin and I don't enjoy the taste. I attempted to find out if Silk flavored creamer was gluten-free, or if Belsoy was, but I couldn't find anything definitive. These are the only two I have come across in the stores here. I am in Canada if that make a difference.

If anyone has any ideas or knowledge about this I would totally appreciate it, I am craving coffee that I love made from home soo badly!

Thank you

Have you tried the coconut milk creamers? They are sold under the "So Delicous" label. I really like the flavor as a creamy substitue and have to have the bit of sweet in my coffee as well!

The Silk says right on the container that it is gluten free.

Thanks for your responses, I haven't seen the coconut one, but I will try to track it down. Small city here. The Silk brand here is not labeled as gluten free. I wonder what the difference would be.. I see your in the States.

Its stange how its labelled. It has some stuff about natural & dairy free & gluten-free. Not with the ingredients just on the side. Does Canada have gluten-free labelling laws? US doesn't.

Coffeemate in the US is clearly labeled dairy free and gluten free - they have a ton of flavors and are delicious. Not sure if they're available to you there in Canada but I hope so!

Coffeemate is NOT really dairy free. The dairy free label in the US really means LACTOSE free, not necessarily CASEIN free.

Hmm, now I can't remember if I checked the entire writings on the Silk or not, so I'll go check again , thanks. I am really not sure about the gluten labeling laws in Canada. I know they don't have to list the source of starches and that sort of thing. Gluten is not included in the major allergens to label for, so I think we are probably much the same then.

We do have coffee-mate here. I used to be a coffee mate junkie for years. I am a little paranoid of the coffee-mate, I remember hearing ears ago that is is linked to health issues, I don't know if that holds true but I remember parkinson's and alzheimer's being two of the concerns. I think it was aluminum and it was in many non-dairy creamers as well as some other foods, and cookware.

      First off, I’m sorry to hear about the challenges you’ve been facing, both with your recent celiac concerns and the dermatitis you've been dealing with. It’s clear you’ve put in a lot of effort to figure this out, and it’s frustrating to still have lingering questions. Regarding your TTG-IgA result of 11.6 U/mL, you’re correct that many labs and celiac experts consider values above 10 to be indicative of possible celiac disease. However, interpretation can vary depending on the lab and the individual. It’s worth noting that slightly elevated levels can also sometimes occur with other autoimmune conditions, including Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. However, since you already have Hashimoto's and a strong family history of celiac (your daughter’s diagnosis), the most likely explanation is that you also have celiac disease. Here are a few steps you might consider to gain peace of mind: Consult a Gastroenterologist: They have more expertise in celiac diagnostics than a general PCP. They may recommend additional tests like an EMA (endomysial antibody) test or even genetic testing to confirm your predisposition further. Consider a Small Intestinal Biopsy: If there’s uncertainty, a biopsy remains the gold standard for celiac diagnosis. It can provide clarity, especially since your TTG-IgA is borderline. Monitor Symptoms on a Gluten-Free Diet: Since you already have another autoimmune condition and a chronic rash (which could resemble dermatitis herpetiformis, a skin manifestation of celiac disease), some doctors might suggest trying a strict gluten-free diet for a few months under supervision. If you notice a marked improvement, it might be telling. Keep in mind that if you go on a gluten-free diet before an endoscopy/biopsy, you will need to do a gluten challenge and eat lots of gluten daily for at least two weeks before the biopsy. As for your genetic results from 23andMe, having two copies of a celiac-associated gene (HLA-DQ2 or DQ8) does increase your risk of developing celiac disease considerably. However, about 30-40% of the general population carries these genes, and only a small percentage actually develop the disease. The genetic predisposition combined with your elevated TTG-IgA and symptoms could justify further investigation. Lastly, regarding your chronic "dermatitis," it might be worth bringing up the possibility of dermatitis herpetiformis to a dermatologist familiar with celiac disease. This condition is often misdiagnosed as eczema or another dermatitis type and may not respond well to typical creams. A skin biopsy taken near (not on) an affected area can help diagnose it.

      I’ve been gluten-free for a while too, and I know how frustrating it can be when your body reacts unexpectedly. I haven’t personally experienced what you’re describing with Ozempic, but I did have a situation where I took a break from certain supplements and noticed my body felt a lot better.

      Two of our moderators @knitty kitty and @Wheatwacked know a lot more about nutrients and may be able to offer some more help, so hopefully they will chime in here.

      Hi Scott, thanks for the reply.    I’m currently taking  3000IU vitamin D3 centrum multivitamin  500mg vitamin C 1000mcg B12 naturemade softgel Omega 3 (for dry eyes) My latest labs for vitamins were D - 43.6 (range 30-100) B12 - 406 (range 232-1245) Folate - 11.4 (range >3.0) ferritin - 117 (30-400) magnesium - 2.3 (1.6-2.3) Calcium - 9.9 (8.7-10.2)   I am 29 and really struggling with this emotionally, I was caught by surprise 2.5months ago with this dx and pretty much no symptoms that I really knew of besides low ferritin. When I first met with the GI doctor in July and he ordered the endoscopy/colonoscopy, that was around when the twitching started. I’m unsure if it’s the anxiety of it all (I have been consistently freaking out since the scopes were ordered, losing sleep, obsessively googling etc.) or if it’s celiac related. I’m horrified that I might have something else wrong with me.  Additionally, I’ve been getting some mixed opinions - dietician told me to stop the additional b12 because my multi had b12, but I see online that some people think b12 levels should be well over 500.    Some other things that I’ve experienced since I went gluten free are more “sinus” headaches, facial pressure, some cramping in my left side (could be postural problems I’m dealing with) and dry eyes - my eye doctor has me on some eyes drops that really help and this is a work in progress. And no my mouth isn’t dry too 😅   I’m absolutely beside myself with fear of other AI diseases and have no one I can really turn to (besides online) that has dealt with this. I have no idea what’s in my mind and what is a real symptom anymore because I’m so hyper aware of every sensation in my body! Thank you so much in advance for any input/guidance.

      I never had muscle twitching that I would relate to Celiac Disease (celiac disease).  However, I now have Long Covid and muscle twitching, burning, and other issues cropped up with that.  Predating all was restless leg syndrome (RLS).  Are you talking about RLS?  I've had that since '99.  It gets progressively worse.
