I don't know of any diet soda that contains gluten. Years ago one of the sugar free fruit flavored drinks (non bubbly) did contain gluten. Not sure if it was Minute Maid or Crystal Light. But I think that is no longer the case and it should be okay.

Coke and Pepsi are all gluten free.

Often you can find reliable information if you google, for example "Pepsi - Gluten free", such as this:

Open Original Shared Link

or through directly to the manufacturer.

I know some brands of root beer and orange soda are not gluten free. I don't drink diet so not sure about the diet. To be safe always check with the company. What brand name to do drink?

Before you drink that diet soda, do yourself a huge favor and google "aspartame."

I fully agree with getting rid of the diet soda. My dd drank it when she first moved here. I had her switch to regular soda. She dropped 10 pounds, her shakiness stopped and she was not so irritable.

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
