Does anyone know if any flavored waters contain gluten? Also, does drinking alot of flavored water have the same or nearly the same benefits alot of plain water or does it have to be pure water?

I know that all Gatoraid products are gluten free to include Propel - all flavors. (at last check, which was recent).

Flavored water is definitely not the same as pure water, especially if it contains artificial sweetners and flavors. It tastes good but it's more like a soft drink. You can easily make your own flavored water though. Pour water into a pitcher and add some fresh cucumber and orange slices. Let the pitcher sit in the fridge overnight. Lemon also works well. If you make it yourself, your water will taste good and you won't have to worry about gluten or toxic artificial flavors.

I've always liked plain water with a slice of lemon or lime; after being used to that, the new flavored waters taste horribly chemical to me.

Love the idea of cucumber and orange--I'll have to try that! Thanks for posting the idea, Mango!

i think i remember this...was it all sorts of berry flavors? drank something like it when i was a kid, remember the blue bottle.

another good one is cucumber and honeydew water. i think when i tried it, they had mint in it too...but can't remember...

good ol' fresh water is the best to me :D or on occasion fruit juice (100% fruit) like Naked Juices :P mmm, my fave!

      Thankyou so much for your words.Its a hard battle when a supposed well known hospital whose celiac " specialist " has down played me because my colon looks fine and put it in my medical and so pcp doesn't take seriously. In their eyes we all carry that gene.Im having alot of bad days trying to be positive because of it.

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.
