I have noticed for the past few weeks that I am having trouble with coffee…has anyone else ever heard that celiacs often have trouble with coffee - it has properties that bring on the same response we might have to gluten. Has anyone else experienced this?

Hi Missy, and Welcome to the Forum  :)

 

There is no gluten in coffee, however you need to check flavoring or creams as they may.  For some coffee can be a natural laxative.  There are always a very small minority that coffee doesn't sit well with but If you have had no problem in the past then you should be fine with it.  If you are newly diagnosed then your gut may be healing and coffee may aggravate it for a little bit.

 

Good Luck to you,

 

Colleen

Coffee didn't sit well with me the first few weeks I was gluten-free, but I've had it four times in the last week and seem to be fine with it now! So maybe it's just a temporary reaction while the gut is healing...

Coffee is hard on the stomach (gastritis, etc) for many people - Celiac or not.  I do bet if I have a little milk with mine - seems to cut the acidity of the coffee.

 

I went to the International Celiac Disease Symposium in Sept - all the food served was gluten free.  We went through gallons of coffee every day!  :D

I drink coffee and I have problems with all sorts of other things.  Coffee has been found to be contaminated with gluten containing materials on occasion.  Open Original Shared Link

 

I buy whole beans to avoid that possibility.

Hi Steph, Thanks for that information.  It was you who I was thinking about when I said "a small minority", I just couldn't remember the specifics.

I have a problem with caffeine in general, but it started before I was diagnosed.  I think it was just upsetting my damaged gut.  I can drink tea now, but coffee…not so much, yet.  I read somewhere that instant coffee labels should be read, especially flavored instant coffees.  Try drinking very weak decaf for a bit.

I drink Folger's and I drink Dunkin' Donuts. Every day. Lots of it. I start my morning with it on an empty stomach. No problems whatsoever.

Chicago is beautiful in the fall.

      Does anyone here also have Afib

      By Keith Hatfield · Posted

      Many years ago yes, after eating and going to bed, apparently my esophagus filled with food that my body rejected, the esophagus would lay against the Heart sack (pericardium?) and the heart would respond by becoming arrhythmic. That went away with the strict diet.

      It has been known for some years that celiacs suffer from migraines at a higher rate than the general populatation. It is an established symptom.

      I suffer so bad with migraines when I eat gluten! Yes diagnosed celiac disease n 2015 and it took me years to discover gluten was behind me having severe migraines.  So yes it happens there has to be others like me!

      If black seed oil is working for his Afib, stick to it, but if not, I can say that ablation therapy is no big deal--my mother was out of the procedure in about 1 hour and went home that evening, and had zero negative effects from the treatment. PS - I would recommend that your husband get an Apple watch to monitor his Afib--there is an app and it will take readings 24/7 and give reports on how much of the time he's in it. Actual data like this should be what should guide his treatment.
