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.

      abnormal weight loss

      By glucel · Posted

      I lost 36 pounds (180 to 144) over several months after bypass surgery in sept 2022. I bottomed out at 144 pounds early july this year. Since then slowly gained 5 pounds to 149 but have stalled ther for last few weeks. I read that surgeries can instigate celiac disease in older adults and endoscopy confirmed it april 30. But the weight loss bothers me. Has anybody had similar experience or have any ideas how to gain some weight? I have been taking all the common recommended supplements plus enzymes and probiotics.

      Celiac Diagnosis from Bloodwork Only?

      By trents · Posted

      The tTG-IGA test as a specificity of around 95%. In other words, the chance that something else is causing your positive tTG-IGA result is around 5%.

      Celiac Diagnosis from Bloodwork Only?

      I found this article very a very clear explanation of test results with example cases.  I especially liked this line at the end. "In an effort to justify why we can go against the result of a positive test, we ask “how positive is it’? It’s like getting a positive pregnancy test back and asking “how pregnant am I?” I think it answers some of your specific questions. Are You Confused About Your Celiac Disease Lab Results?
