Does anyone know if the syrups used in Starbucks are gluten free? Something 'got' me the other day & I'm trying to work out what it was.

Yes & no. Helpful, ain't I?

Go to the restaurant topic and you will see 2 recent ( a few days ago) Starbucks discussions. You should read them and decide how you feel about Starbucks.

I know that the Classic Syrup is gluten-free. Your best bet with Starbucks is to call them and ask about the items you are wondering about.

I called Starbucks a while back because I had heard something about gluten in one of their drinks. They said the base for (macchiatto?), may or may not be safe, they cannot exactly source every ingredient to make sure it is not cross contaminated. They said it should be the customer's decision whether or not to have any blended drink if they are concerned about food allergies/intolerances. Personally, I drink their hot and iced coffee and stay away from blended drinks, since even if they clean the blenders, there is still a risk that something is left on it. And honestly, their blended drinks have hundreds to thousands of calories and ridiculous amounts of sugar depending on size, so best to stay away from them anyway. A bunch of Starbucks in the Boston area have started carrying packages of gluten-free cookies and such, which is nice of them.

As far as the blenders, I stay away just like I would not drink anything made in a smoothie shop because you just never know...

oh, oops, I should have said this at the beginning, I'm pretty sure the syrup is gluten-free, but don't use them or any other sugar in my coffee. If not sure, I would ask them to look at the ingredients on the bottle. They're usually pretty good about that.

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By Aussienae · Posted

      Mine is definitely triggered by inflammation and stress! I do also have arthritis in my spine, but the pain is more in my pelvic area. Im sure i have other food intolerances or other autoimmune isues but the more I focus on it and see doctor after doctor, it just gets worse.  Best thing is get of Gluten! (I also avoid lactose). Try to limit stress and anything that causes inflammation in your body.

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By ButWhatCanIEat · Posted

      Good morning,   I got an email about replies to this post. Some of my doctors had blamed a slipped disc for the pain I had and that contributes, but after meeting with a gastroenterologist AGAIN and trying some lifestyle modifications, I found out I have IBS and can't tolerate corn or excessive fructose to any degree. Cutting out corn AFTER having cut out all gluten containing products was a real pain but I feel much better now!

      Isolated DPG-Iga

      By trents · Posted

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.

      Lymph nodes

      By Soleihey · Posted

      Has anyone experimenced enlarged lymph nodes with celiac? Both in the neck and groin area. Imaging of both areas have said that lymph nodes are reactive in nature. However, they have been present for months and just wondering how long this may take to go down. Been gluten-free for about two months. Blood counts are normal.
