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.

      Yes.  I have had the tmj condition for 40 years. My only help was strictly following celiac and also eliminating soy.  Numerous dental visits and several professionally made bite plates  did very little to help with symptoms

      Cristiana makes a good point and it's something I've pointed out at different times on the forum. Not all of our ailments as those with celiac disease are necessarily tied to it. Sometimes we need to look outside the celiac box and remember we are mortal humans just like those without celiac disease.

      Also suffer badly with gluten and TMJD, cutting out gluten has been a game changer, seems to be micro amounts, much less than 20ppm.  Anyone else have issues with other food stuffs? Soy (tofu) and/or milk maybe causing TMJD flare-ups, any suggestions or ideas? --- I'm beginning to think it maybe crops that are grown or cured with glyphosphate. Oats, wheat, barley, soy, lentils, peas, chickpeas, rice, and buckwheat, almonds, apples, cherries, apricots, grapes, avocados, spinach, and pistachios.

      Hi @Scatterbrain Thank you for your reply.   Some of these things could be weaknesses, also triggered by stress, which perhaps have come about as the result of long-term deficiencies which can take a long time to correct.   Some could be completely unrelated. If it is of help, I'll tell you some of the things that started in the first year or two, following my diagnosis - I pinned everything on coeliac disease, but it turns out I wasn't always right!  Dizziness, lightheaded - I was eventually diagnosed with cervical dizziness (worth googling, could be your issue too, also if you have neck pain?)  A few months after diagnosis I put my neck out slightly carrying my seven-year-old above my head, and never assigned any relevance to it as the pain at the time was severe but so short-lived that I'd forgotten the connection. Jaw pain - stress. Tinnitus - I think stress, but perhaps exacerbated by iron/vitamin deficiencies. Painful ribs and sacroiliac joints - no idea, bloating made the pain worse. It got really bad but then got better. Irregular heart rate - could be a coincidence but my sister (not a coeliac) and I both developed this temporarily after our second Astra Zeneca covid jabs.   Subsequent Pfizer jabs didn't affect us. Brain fog - a big thing for people with certain autoimmune issues but in my case I think possibly worse when my iron or B12 are low, but I have no proof of this. Insomnia - stress, menopause. So basically, it isn't always gluten.  It might be worth having your vitamins and mineral levels checked, and if you have deficiencies speak to your Dr about how better to address them?

      @NanceK, I do have Hypersensitivity Type Four reaction to Sulfa drugs, a sulfa allergy.  Benfotiamine and other forms of Thiamine do not bother me at all.  There's sulfur in all kinds of Thiamine, yet our bodies must have it as an essential nutrient to make life sustaining enzymes.  The sulfur in thiamine is in a ring which does not trigger sulfa allergy like sulfites in a chain found in pharmaceuticals.  Doctors are not given sufficient education in nutrition (nor chemistry in this case).  I studied Nutrition before earning a degree in Microbiology.  I wanted to know what vitamins were doing inside the body.   Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.   Not feeling well after starting Benfotiamine is normal.  It's called the "thiamine paradox" and is equivalent to an engine backfiring if it's not been cranked up for a while.  Mine went away in about three days.  I took a B Complex, magnesium and added molybdenum for a few weeks. It's important to add a B Complex with all eight essential B vitamins. Supplementing just one B vitamin can cause lows in some of the others and result in feeling worse, too.  Celiac Disease causes malabsorption of all the B vitamins, not just thiamine.  You need all eight.  Thiamine forms including Benfotiamine interact with each of the other B vitamins in some way.  It's important to add a magnesium glycinate or chelate supplement as well.  Forms of Thiamine including Benfotiamine need magnesium to make those life sustaining enzymes.  (Don't use magnesium oxide.  It's not absorbed well.  It pulls water into the intestines and is used to relieve constipation.)   Molybdenum is a trace mineral that helps the body utilize forms of Thiamine.   Molybdenum supplements are available over the counter.  It's not unusual to be low in molybdenum if low in thiamine.   I do hope you will add the necessary supplements and try Benfotiamine again.
