Any Gluten Free/caffine Free Hot Drinks


Brien

Recommended Posts

Since going gluten free I also added dropping coffee and tea from my diet as I found out that they were also leading to my lousy feeling. Since I dropped all forms of coffee and teas things have been much much better. However, I tend to do long road trips and have one coming up...., I was such a junkie for the hot drink in the car while traveling..., are there hot drink alternatives that are gluten/caffine/decaf free?

As long as you check the herbal teas for gluteny ingredients, they should be gluten-free and caffeine free. I know celestial seasonings is great about marking the boxes gluten-free when the blend is safe. Peppermint tea, fruity herbal teas, I've found them very yummy.

I think Brien is asking for hot drinks that are NOT coffee or tea.

I like apple cider and lemonade hot.

Have you dropped just black/green teas?

Like the previous poster, I drink mint teas. It's just dried mint in hot water. I also like nettle tea, which is caffeine free.

You can find lots of tasty herbs that are caffeine free to make a hot drink.

Herbal teas (often gluten free, but always check the label).

Hot chocolate (I make mine with cocoa powder, almond milk, and agave nectar, but there are lots of other options).

Hot cider.

Hot lemonade.

I'll have to followup on some of those teas. I was drinking a variety of decaf Green teas but they seemed to be having the same effect but less that regular tea and coffee did. I'll have to double check some things at my local Health Food stores - need to jot down the suggestions.

Hot cider and lemonade I may need to revisit but wasn't something I enjoyed when I tried them a ways back but who knows now.

There are all kinds of herbal teas you can have. The simple peppermint or chamomile or what have you. But there are a WIDE variety of blends. Stash and Celestial Seasonings and Tazo have plenty, but find a local tea shop for more inventive variations. Teavana makes a fruity blend (sweet fruit garden) that I think is fabulous (even better with some honey). And there are more and more rooibos teas (red tea) which are naturally caffeine free.

This may sound a little strange but I just recently found that I enjoy a cup of hot water with about 2 table spoons of honey and a tsp of cinammon(sp). or more whatever your taste is. It is both smoothing and uplifting at the same time.

      @Jmartes71, Sorry you've been feeling so poorly.   Are you taking any medication to treat the SIBO?   Are you taking any Benfotiamine?  Benfotiamine will help get control of the SIBO.  Thiamine deficiency has symptoms in common with MS. Have you had your gas appliances checked for gas leaks and exhaust fume leaks?  Carbon Monoxide poisoning can cause the same symptoms as the flu and glutening.  Doctors have to check venous blood (not arterial) for carbon monoxide.  Are other inhabitants sick, or just you?  Do they leave the house and get fresh air which relieves their symptoms?

      European wheat is often a "soft wheat" variety which contains less gluten than "hard wheat" varieties found in the States.   In European countries, different cooking methods and longer  fermentation (rising or proofing) times allow for further breakdown of gluten peptides. Wheat in the States is a blend of hard and soft wheat.  Gluten content can vary according to where the wheat was grown, growing conditions, when harvested, and local preference, so a blend of both hard and soft wheat is used to make a uniform product.   I moved around quite a bit as a child in a military family.  I had different reactions to gluten in different areas of the country every time we moved.  I believe some wheat breeds and blends are able to provoke a worse immune response than others.   Since European soft wheat doesn't contain as much gluten as American wheat, you may try increasing your intake of your soft wheat products.  A minimum of ten grams of gluten is required to get a sufficient immunological response so that the anti-gluten antibodies leave the intestines and enter the bloodstream where they can be measured by the tTg IgA test.  Your whole wheat bread may only have a gram of gluten per slice, so be prepared...

      From my own experience and that of others who have tried to discontinue PPI use, I think your taper down plan is much too aggressive. It took me months of very incremental tapering to get to the point where I felt I was succeeding and even then I had to rely some days on TUMS to squelch flareups. After about a year I felt I had finally won the battle. Rebound is real. If I were you I would aim at cutting back in weekly increments for two weeks at a time rather than daily increments. So, for instance, if you have been taking 2x20mg per day, the first week cut that down to 2x20mg for six days and 1x20 mg for the other day. Do that for two weeks and then cut down to 2x20mg for five days and 1x20 for two days. On the third week, go 20x2 for four days and 20x1 for 3 days. Give yourself a week to adjust for the reduced dosage rather than reducing it more each week. I hope this makes sense.

      Talk to your doctor about switching to an antihistamine, and supplementing essential vitamins and minerals.  Dietary changes (low carb/paleo) may be beneficial for you.  Have you talked to a dietician or nutritionist about a nutrient dense gluten free diet?   It's harder to get all the vitamins needed from a gluten free diet.  Gluten containing products are required to be enriched or fortified with vitamins and minerals lost in processing.  Gluten free facsimile processed foods are not required to be enriched nor fortified.  So we have to buy our own vitamin supplements.   Glad to be of help.  Keep us posted on your progress!

      I’m pretty sure they do. I have been on myfortic, tacrolimus since 2021 for my liver transplant and added prednisone after kidney transplant.  I’m going to try to cut back omeprazole to 20 mg a day and then after a week try to stop altogether. Thank you for your help.
