Hi, I was in Borders today skimming through which new gluten-free book I wanted to buy and there was a warning in one of them that said to be careful since NOT all Soy Lattes are gluten-free. I KNOW starbucks is since I wrote to them (and have seen many posts regarding them) but I was wondering if anyone out there knows WHICH Soy brands contain Gluten? I was at "Seattles Best" today and was afraid to get a latte. There is also a cute new coffee shop newar my home and I am not sure if their lattes are gluten-free. I try to do a casein free diet as well since Ive always been lactose intolerant. Thanks!

Do you know what brand of soy milk Starbucks uses?

I work in a coffee shop, and we use Silk brand soy milk, which is gluten free. I'm going to guess that's what a bunch of coffee shops use, since it's readily available and a known brand. Obviously, it would be to your advantage to ask before ordering. ;)

Hope that helps! Now go have a latte! :D

I have been to Starbucks three times and the soy milk they use is Silk. I use this at home also. In my flower shop I have a small coffee bar. I stock Silk since it is what I like and lactose intolerant customers like it too.

Starbucks in both Illinois and Texas have switched to some sort of generic brand for soy milk. I suspect it's nationwide.

I have not been able to contact them to figure out if it is gluten free yet. I looked at the box and it has natural flavors, which can often mean barley in these kinds of "milks". The people working there were unable to tell me anything.

I ask every time I go in. I jetted to the nearby seattle's best and they used silk, so I got my drink there.

The only soy milk that I know is gluten-free is SILK. Sorry, not too helpful.

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By Oldturdle · Posted

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/

      A lot to think about here. Does anyone have any recommendations for third party laboratories that will do full panel celiac screens private pay in the U.S.?

      You don't need an official diagnosis to request a gluten-free diet in either a hospital or nursing home--this can be requested by anyone. The higher costs associated with existing conditions for life insurance is a reality, and regardless of your politics, it could become a reality again for health insurance in the USA. For many this could make health insurance unaffordable, thus, everyone who is undiagnosed should understand such potential consequences before they go the official diagnostic route. As mentioned, once it's on your medical record, it won't go away.
