Ok, so I found an hot tea, that I liked that  stated that it was gluten-free, ( some teas do contain preservatives that contain gluten) but when drinking it today I noted a headache coming on and a  mild discomfort in my stomach.  The brand is called Revolution  and it is a  Ginger Peach tea. I checked the ingredients and for  gluten-free markings to ensure safety on the box, and both seemed to check out. No other warnings that  show it could have been cross contaminated either(as most products I seen at Whole Foods, or The Fresh Market will warn of that possibility).  Has anyone ever experienced problems with this brand?

 

edit note:  My hubby  had  also checked that box when buying it and it is certified gluten-free, I myself  just double checked and it is certified.

Just an FYI - some teas are made with barley or called " malted". Those are the ones with gluten.

I haven't had this flavor - ginger teas don't agree with my stomach. I have had other flavors and been fine.

Thanks for the info.

I actually  have done some research on tea's and  threw out or gave away a lot of my old teas that  was  I dunno, or not safe. Any tea's I have bought recently have all been listed on the product that they are  certified gluten-free and absent of Barley.  It could be Ginger issue, but not sure needless to say I am will be giving it to a friend as  I hate to just waste things by throwing them in the garbage when  I have friends who  could use it. Most of my  old foods I had around upon diagnosis, I  gave away.  I tend to  because I am new be very paranoid of things that don't state they are safe, or ask questions to try and figure out if they are.

      A friend of mine is in the bar trade most of his life and has never heard of lines being mixed for different type of beers and ciders. Better to stick with cans.

      Thanks very much for confirming my suspicion @Scott Adams! That helps a lot because I'm really trying to track down and get rid of these sources of cross-contact and so I'm going to just rule out the draft ciders and hope that helps. Also @Rogol72 its nice to hear you haven't had a problem on that side of the pond - draft cider lines being used for cider only certainly sounds like the right way to do it, but I think that must not always be practiced over here!

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.

      Negative, although I had most of the symptoms of celiac disease. I now eat as if I had a diagnosis.
