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 am also not fond of the new flavored waters they all have a bitter taste to me. I used to like this water it came in a blue bottle...not even sure of the name...they dont make it anymore.

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!

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      New labs are now very elevated

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?

      Chances of being coeliac

      @JettaGirl, "Coeliac" is the British spelling of "celiac". Same disease.

      This may sound ridiculous but is this supposed to say Celiacs? I looked up Coeliacs because you never know, there’s a lot of diseases related to a disease that they come up with similar names for. It’s probably meant to say Celiacs but I just wanted to confirm.
