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.

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Allergy medication: cetirizine by the HealthA2Z is it gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
