Hills Bros. Cappuccino Flavors

I have recently noticed in the store that the Hills Bros. Cappuccino flavors no longer have gluten free listed on the front of their packages. Anyone know if they still are safe(gluten free) to drink?

Its been awhile since I bought one and the one on my shelf at home says "gluten free" on the front.

After taking about a year off from drinking the mix I just started drinking it again last week. I noticed "gluten" symptoms....headache, stomach problems, moody....and was googling if it was gluten free and your question came up. I think they changed the formula and it is no longer gluenn free!

It may only be the French Vanilla that is gluten free now. I had double mocha and English toffee.

I just did the same exact thing that BGG did. I've loved this drink for years, but after not having it for a while, I got some on the weekend and was drinking it yesterday and today at work. Today I had *ahem* stomach issues after finishing one cup, and got increasingly more spacey/dizzy/headachy by the hour after that. I suspect that the maltodextrin listed in the ingredients is now wheat derived.

In the USA Maltodextrin is made from corn and it gluten-free.

From Wikipedia:

"Maltodextrin can be enzymatically derived from any starch. In the US, this starch is usually Open Original Shared Link; in Europe, it is common to use Open Original Shared Link. In the Open Original Shared Link, wheat-derived maltodextrin is exempt from labeling, as set out in Annex II of Open Original Shared Link No 1169/2011."

 

I have reacted to wheat derived maltodextrin before, and I've even seen 'Maltodextrin (wheat) on labels, even on things produced in the US.

Yes, maltodextrin can be derived from wheat, but in the US, that must be disclosed e.g. maltodextrin (wheat).  Check the actual product label.  Confirm with the manufacturer if this product is manufactured on a shared line with gluten containing items.

That said, this stuff has all kinds of preservatives and additives.  You could be reacting to those.

      There is also something called "seronegative celiac disease" in which there is damage to the villous lining of the small bowel but no celiac antibodies are produced by the immune system. It's not very common and there can be numerous causes including infections, some medications and even some nongluten foods.  If you have dermatitis herpetiformis, that is proof positive you have celiac disease sense there is no other known cause for it. If you get it biopsied during an outbreak it can be used to establish a diagnosis of celiac disease, therefore. But not every dermatologist knows how to biopsy dermatitis herpetiformis correctly and it can be difficult to get an appointment with one on short...

      Ty very helpful I’m in the process of getting in with a new gI doctor and will ask more about all that then and yes the rash is exactly like that. I have a half cousin with celiac but that’s it in my whole family and idk if that matters as I see it is hereditary and others say the the only in the family with it. Either way this was very much appreciated ty again.

      My first post includes the blood test report done by the second doctor.  They told me to take two Naproxen tablets per day.  Absolutely worthless but I'm doing it.  I get to visit the doctor again in two weeks.  These doctors are worthless.  I had to clue them in to the fact that they used to treat me for fibromyalgia 15 years ago with vicodin until some political stooge had it removed from the market.  Then I found out about my grandchild with celiac so I removed gluten from my diet and got better.  (I had hashimoto's then and still do).  They don't read my medical record, or they don't comprehend it.  Either case they're worthless turds with no answers that are helpful.

      Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      Have you been able to see a doctor or rheumatologist about this? Inflammation like that could point to something like celiac complications, an autoimmune response, or even reactive arthritis, and you deserve relief and answers. In the meantime, gentle heat/cold therapy or anti-inflammatory foods and over the counter meds might help a little, but I hope you can get proper medical support soon.
