I have recently been experiencing bloating and gas after drinking tea. Could there be a very tiny microscopic amount of gluten in tea that causes this???

I think you would have to let us know what kind of tea you're drinking. Some tea probably does contain gluten and others do not. Did you look into this before drinking it? Also, it may not be gluten related at all. Maybe the tea just doesnt agree with you right now.

Some flavored or herbal teas do contain gluten--another thing to consider is that caffeine is very irritating to our systems as we are healing. I have found that I don't do well with tea anymore--I'll probably try it again but not for at least 6 months.

In this cold weather it is just too tempting for me not to drink something hot. So, I make my tea (green, pau d'arco, etc.) extra weak. Like 1 teabag for every 4 - 6 cups of water. This way I can at least still enjoy the flavor and keep my hands warm. I can only have 1 or two cups like this too. But for me, moderation is better than abstaning. Marcia

Some companies seal their tea bags with wheat paste. Celestial Seasonings has a gluten free disclaimer on their boxes- some of them say 'may contain gluten', but most of them say 'gluten free'.

A lot of teas have gluten (don't ask me to explain how). Try Numi teas or Traditional Medicinals (except for the St. John Wort. Numi teas are organic and very good for you.

The Tetley website claims that their hot tea is gluten free. It's what I drink.

      Welcome to the forum, @linnylou73! Are you claiming this based on a reaction or based upon actual testing?

      This varies a lot from person to person. I include foods that are not certified gluten-free but are labelled "gluten-free", while super sensitive people only use certified gluten-free. Both types of products have been found to contain gluten, so there are no guarantees either way: It you are in the super sensitive group, eating a whole foods based diet where you prepare everything is the safest bet, but it's also difficult. Eating out is the the most risky, even if a restaurant has a gluten-free menu. I also include items that are naturally gluten-free, for example refried beans, tuna, pasta sauces, salsas, etc., which have a low overall risk of contamination.

      Juice shots? Anti inflammatory

      I avoid turmeric now because I'm on low dose aspirin, but used to use this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08HYBN4DJ My recipes always vary according to what I have on hand, but my base is a frozen berry mix from Trader Joe's: https://www.traderjoes.com/home/products/pdp/fruits-greens-smoothie-blend-075603 In the warmer months I include herbs from my garden like Italian parsley and basil. I add almond milk as well.
