Anyone Else Have Problems With Soda?

I know soda is bad but it was my treat since I don't drink coffee. I've been gluten-free for almost 2 years now and was still getting all the tummy problems every day. I would drink a regular Coke every day with my lunch and within an hour the problems would start.

 

I just found out that caramel color is in all soda products and it can come from barley - does anyone else react to Coke or soda??

 

Thanks :)

In the Us, caramel color is gluten free.  Coke is gluten free.  However, it is very acidic.  Bubbles can be hard, too.  Also, it has high fructose corn syrup which can be hard for some people, Celiac or not, to digest.

Yeah, it could be the acidity in the soda irritating you. Or the carbonation. My boyfriend and his mom both can't stand anything carbonated. It causes bad stomach pain for them.

I react to dark sodas, but the light ones, like sprite I am fine with. I know they are gluten free. I also get sick from tea. go figure. these reactions are not my glutening reactions, I get stomach cramps, nausea and heartburn. it took me a while to figure it out, and I am glad I did.

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
