Hi all.

Along with giving up sooooooooo many thing I also gave up tea. I am not a coffee drinker.

I would like to drink tea any please.

Do you have any recommendations of what kind of tea I could drink, of course it have to be gluten-free.

Thanks

Most teas are gluten free. Red Rose, Tetley, Nestea. As long as it says, 100% tea, it is ok. Be careful of some of the flavored teas, they may contain gluten--some even state if they are gluten free or not.

ALL the Republic of Tea teas are gluten-free. You can check under questions and answers on their website. They have a large variety of herbal, black, green etc.

You need to be very careful with teas. I only use ones that say gluten free on the label. Celestial Seasonings makes a number of gluten free teas and will label the ones that are gluten-free. Many teas especially herbal and flavored teas are not gluten-free so please make sure they are safe.

Im not a big fan of English tea (despite being English in origin)... but I do like green teas and some other types like Russian ..

Mostly I buy a good quality basic tea and then add my own stuff.... right now a fav is lemongrass and ginger green tea... I buy the basic but best quality green teas (nothing but tea) and then add my own ginger and lemon grass...

I actually just put ginger and lemon grass aside when cooking (parts not to be cooked) let em dry out and then add these to the tea...

If you want bottled tea, try Sweet Leaf tea. I like the raspberry flavor :P They are all gluten-free. Also Snapple teas are now gluten-free. I don't know why, but Snapple really bothers my stomach - like a mini reaction, but the tea should be gluten-free so I have no idea. Personally, I live on Luizianne Iced Tea with fruit juice.

At home, I only use Stash Teas--they are all gluten-free.

At Starbucks, and other places that offer it, Harney and Sons is also safe.

I have had reactions to more than one variety of Celestial Seasonings--even the ones that state gluten-free on the box.

Are we talking about loose tea or tea in bags? I love English tea and have not given up tea drinking in the few weeks I've been gluten-free. I drink non-flavored Tetley in bags. Do the bags contain gluten?

      The discovery of the vitamin D receptor in multiple immune cell lineages, such as monocytes, dendritic cells, and activated T cells credits vitamin D with a novel role in modulating immunological functions and its subsequent role in the development or prevention of autoimmune diseases.  The Implication of Vitamin D and Autoimmunity: a Comprehensive Review

      Definitely get vitamin D 25(OH)D.  Celiac Disease causes vitamin D deficiency and one of the functions of vitamin D is modulating the genes.  While we can survive with low vitamin D as an adaptation to living in a seasonal environment, the homeostasis is 200 nmol/L.  Vitamin D Receptors are found in nearly every cell with a nucleus,while the highest concentrations are in tissues like the intestine, kidney, parathyroid, and bone.  A cellular communication system, if you will. The vitamin D receptor: contemporary genomic approaches reveal new basic and translational insights  Possible Root Causes of Histamine Intolerance. "Low levels of certain nutrients like copper, Vitamins A, B6, and C can lead to histamine build up along with excess or deficient levels of iron. Iodine also plays a crucial role in histamine regulation."

      I forgot to mention my suspicion of the high amount of glyphosate allowed to be used on wheat in USA and NZ and Australia. My weight was 69kg mid-2023, I went down to 60kg in March 2024 and now hover around 63kg (just after winter here in NZ) - wheat-free and very low alcohol consumption.

      Hi Jess Thanks so much for your response and apologies for the long delay in answering. I think I must have been waiting for something to happen before I replied and unfortunately it fell off the radar... I have had an upper endoscopy and colonoscopy in the meantime (which revealed 'minor' issues only). Yes I do think histamine intolerance is one of the problems. I have been lowering my histamine intake and feeling a lot better. And I do think it is the liver which is giving the pain. I am currently taking zinc (I have had three low zinc tests now), magnesium, B complex, vitamin E and a calcium/Vitamin C mix. I consciously think about getting vitamin D outside. (Maybe I should have my vitamin D re-tested now...) I am still 100% gluten-free. My current thoughts on the cause of the problems is some, if not all, of the following: Genetically low zinc uptake, lack of vitamin D, wine drinking (alcohol/sulphites), covid, immune depletion, gastroparesis, dysbiosis, leaky gut, inability to process certain foods I am so much better than late 2023 so feel very positive 🙂

      Hi and thank you very much for your detailed response! I am so glad that the protocol worked so well for you and helped you to get your health back on track. I've heard of it helping other people too. One question I have is how did you maintain your weight on this diet? I really rely on nuts and rice to keep me at a steady weight because I tend to lose weight quickly and am having a hard time envisioning how to make it work, especially when not being able to eat things like nuts and avocados. In case you have any input, woud be great to hear it! Friendly greetings.
