Coffee confirmations.

I know this has been discussed here previously, but could not find any current topics about it specifically.

Coffee, I know, in it's pure form, is safe. I drink five cups of coffee per day, minimum. I am not willing to give it up, period. That said, I would like to confirm what brands are truly safe. I've been drinking Folgers, but hate the taste, plus the CYA statement on their website about contamination is concerning to me, even if it's not technically a major deal.

What brands of coffee are 100% safe, meaning gluten free and not contaminated. I don't drink flavored coffees, I purchased a new coffee pot to be super safe, and I want to know what type of coffee grounds (Not instant) I can safely use without being unsure every time I fill my mug. I do not have Celiac symptoms, so I cannot go by symptoms to tell if I'm getting glutened or not.

Thank you so much! -RD

I'm not aware of any major coffee brands that label their coffee as gluten-free, however, it's one of those naturally gluten-free things that has a very low chance of wheat contamination.

Okay, that makes me feel better. I've been struggling to know where to turn. I haven't found any brands that are specifically gluten free, except for some odd brands containing mushrooms of all things. 🤨

Thanks for the help!

      Thank you for explaining! This makes sense.

      I have been looking for new dishes. I was surprised to find dishes made of wheat straw. Are these safe for us? I'm very careful to avoid products that may contain gluten. I never thought I might have to check for wheat in dishes.

      Welcome to the forum, @Hope07! The reference range would refer to what is considered normal in healthy people. So, 7 or less would mean there is no indication of "active" celiac disease. Apparently, you are doing very will in avoiding gluten. The "Tissue Transglutaminase IGA" is the centerpiece antibody test that clinicians run when checking for celiac disease. My only reservation would be that whenever the TTG-IGA test is run, a "total IGA" test should also be run to check for IGA deficiency. When IGA deficiency is present, other IGA tests, such as the TTG-IGA can be artificially low and result in false positives. In the absence of any symptoms indicating your celiac disease is not under control, however, I would take the result you posted at face value.

      Going on a cruise next week and I’m a celiac. Bought a bottle of GliandinX. Should I just take two tablets per day as a precaution? Never tried this before!! Any help is appreciated!!

      Hola! Not sure if I’m asking this in the right place so apologies if not! I just had a full blood count as part of my first check up after being diagnosed with celiac disease 7 years ago!! With Covid lockdowns then living in Spain for 3 years and now back in the UK, I kept getting missed in the system but finally I’ve had a check up! Does anyone know what this means?  Tissu transglutaminase IgA lev:  0.30 U/ml Reference range:  Below 7 Thank you!
