Torani Pumpkin Flavor Contains Gluten?

On friday I had a horrible hell of a reaction that lasted to late night monday that happened right after drinking some pumpkin drink with the torani. Nothing else unusual that day.

Thoughts?

You sure love your sweet liquidy yummies dont you? :D

What are the ingredients?

And you know...sometimes other things make us feel bad. For instance, I started taking a new vitamin C yesterday, so today it is the big D. Vitamin C can do that to you. And Tamarind fruit will give me literally non-stop D for 24 hours. Scary D.

Maybe you are sensitive to something else in the syrup.

Could it be just too much sugar? That will happen to me sometimes.

Directly from Torani's FAQs........

Which syrups contain Gluten?

At this time, we only have two syrups, Toasted Marshmallow and Sugar Free Vanilla which is known to contain a small amount of barley which does contain gluten. We are unaware of any gluten in our other syrups. We also do not add any casein to our syrups and are unaware of its presence in any of our ingredients.

I like to try new things for my carb loads so yeah I try a lot of sweets. Though last night was excellent. I kept it fatty and not so sugary. For example I had two big hempshakes (like my milkshakes posted in the baking and cooking tips) rather than something like a bunch of apples and a quart of ice cream. My insides are thanking me today.

Anyway it could be the result of too much sugar, but I felt pretty close to dying. I had hallucinations, difficulty thinking, suicide ideation (from being confused and hopeless not depressed), severe D and cramps, feverish feelings, chills, etc... for FOUR days! I've had lots of sugar in an instant before because of my carb loads and it was never that bad.

There is caramel coloring in the pumpkin blend but like I said the site has a huge chart of allergens with none of them checked.

I had the pumpkin which definitely was not worth it. Though it was a learning experience. When I first started getting symptoms I was so furious that I almost grabbed a pizza or something that I sometimes crave (mainly for nostalgia sake rather than taste) but was able to rationalize myself into not doing. And I learned to STAY WITHIN MY BOUNDS. NO MORE SUSPICIOUS FOODS FOR PYRO! And no more eating things that bother me but don't kill me like daifuku and apples. Yes, apples. They will definitely be hard since I just discovered honey crisp, but I can easily know for 100% that they will burn my mouth and stomach everytime I eat them. I've actually known that before cutting out gluten, but ate them anyway "because it wasn't so bad". If it hurts, why bother?

You know I react to any Stasero syrups with caramel coloring. They swear no gluten but I react nonetheless and have given them up. Kind of hard to track darn the culprit when there is no specific ingredient.

      Most doctors don't even order anything besides the tTG-IGA and maybe total IGA when doing blood testing for celiac disease. The EMA is the very first celiac blood antibody test that was developed and has largely been replaced by the tTG-IGA which is less expensive to run in the lab. My understanding is they both pretty much check for the same thing. The IGG tests are second tier tools that are less specific for celiac disease. It is not at all uncommon for the EMA and the tTG-IGA to disagree with one another. We frequently see this on the forum. I do not know why. Please realize that doctors typically run a number of tests when diagnosing a medical condition. If there was one test that was foolproof, there would not be a need for other tests and other testing modalities. It works that way with many or most diseases.

      But yes seeing all those negatives does give me a bit of doubt! I feel confident but those results give me a seed of doubt. Especially since it's a lifelong diet for him!

      When I originally posted I hadn't talked to the pediatrician yet and didn't realize about the budosinide. Now I feel pretty confident. I was concerned that all of the tests didn't come back positive - that seemed kind of ambiguous to me. I didn't realize that was common. Do a lot of people on here have a positive tTG but negative other tests? I thought the EMA was pretty "gold standard."  And yes I do now wonder about the asthma! I hope being gluten free will improve that!

      @lizzie42, So, I'm confused with what you are uncertain about. Do you really have any doubt that your 5 year-old son has celiac disease? Is it because he isn't exhibiting anemia and the rash as did your daughter? The genes are certainly there and the antibody testing certainly indicates celiac. And given the fact that he was on a reduced gluten diet and on a steroidal medication (which would likely suppress immune responses) do you really have any doubt? If you can't afford the GI consult with endoscopy/biopsy, why would you consider a gluten challenge after removing the remainder of the gluten from his diet? Have you considered that his asthma and "sickness" may be tied to celiac disease?
