Tazo Tea - All Flavors Gluten Free

I remember reading many times that some Tazo teas have gluten in them - namely the Green Ginger, Tazo Honeybush, Lemon Ginger, and Tea Lemonade. I decided to check with the company because it looked like all old information and sure enough, they have revised their statement on gluten. Here is what I received from their Customer Care dept. Looks like they have removed the potential gluten in all tea flavors.

 

Thank you so much for taking the time to contact Tazo.

 

Thank you for your inquiry. None of our teas contain wheat or barley in them. Some of our teas do continue corn or corn derived products but no wheat or barley.

  • While some glues do contain wheat and/or animal products, no glue of any kind is used to seal Tazo filterbags. They are stapled; so there is no glue present.
  • Tazo Filterbag manufacturing plants have allergen control standards in place.
  • While there is always risk of cross-contamination with gluten containing products in the retail setting, the actual dry filterbag components should not contain any gluten.

Sweet! By chance does this apply to their holiday teas if so I am going to be soooo happy. The only problem is now, I have fallen in love with two leaf's teas and the Republic of tea and gypsy teas gluten-free versions that seriously rock. But great to know for when I'm out and about.

      Rosacea

      You may want to go to a dermatologist to see if it might instead be dermatitis herpetiformis, which is the skin version of celiac disease. Here are some articles on Rosacea and CD:

      Iron supplements - Bowel upsets

      By trents · Posted

      Concerning dosage, I found this: https://patient-info.co.uk/sodium-feredetate-190-mg-5ml-oral-solution-88092/summary-of-medicine-characteristics Age 6 – 24 months: 12.5 mg Age 2 – 5 years: 20–30 mg Age 6 – 11 years: 30 – 60 mg   But these dosages are in mg, not ml.

      Iron supplements - Bowel upsets

      By sh00148 · Posted

      Thank you. I’ve also just looked on the NICE website and it recommends a much lower dose for her age. She’s currently take 7.5 ml in total a day and the recommendation is 4ml and if not tolerated she should try alternate days. It may explain why she’s has such a loose bowel. I’m not concerned about the black poo, but more the frequency and consistency. It’s not fair on her. She has been saying she feels a little sick today so that may be a side effect… I never know with her as she had such bad tummy pains and issues before she was diagnosed. Her levels were at the highest possible and she was vomiting regularly so she often talks about sick.

      Iron supplements - Bowel upsets

      By trents · Posted

      It is "chelated" to improve absorption but not buffered from what I can tell. What she is taking is an appropriate pediatric iron supplement product. By the way, it is normal for iron supplementation to turn poo black. That is not a worry per se. But iron supplementation can cause an upset tummy. Iron can irritate the mucosal lining of the tummy and the gut. Is she complaining of pain or discomfort? The irritation is probably causing her to frequent toileting. Check with your physician about a buffered iron product for children. "Slow iron" products (you can get them over the counter) are buffered and help reduce irritation. Not sure if they are appropriate in dosage, however, for children and if you cut them you destroy the buffered coating. But I certainly would get her B12 levels checked if you haven't.
