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.

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      Tammy, in the food industry, "gluten free" doesn't mean the same thing as "no gluten". As Scott explained, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) allows food companies to use the "gluten-free" label as long as the product does not contain more than 20 ppm (parts per million) of gluten. This number is based on studies the FDA did years ago to determine the reaction threshold for those with celiac disease. And the 20 ppm figure works for the majority of celiacs. There are those who are more sensitive, however, who still react to that amount. There is another, stricter standard known as "Certified Gluten Free" which was developed by a third party organization known as GFCO which requires not more than 10 ppm of gluten. So, when you see "GFCO" or "Certified Gluten Free" labels on food items you know they are manufactured with a stricter standard concerning gluten content. Having said all that, even though you may read the disclaimer on a food item that says the spices may contain wheat, barley or rye (the gluten grains), you should be able to trust that the amount of gluten the spices may contain is so small it allows the total product to meet the requirements of gluten free or certified gluten free labeling. I hope this helps.

      As soon as I see gluten free I read the labels. I always find stuff that I cannot have on the products them selfs. Like spices, when the labels says  everything listed and then after like say garlic salt then the next thing is spices. When it says that that can contain wheat and other things I can’t have..

      While hypoglycemia isn't a direct, classic symptom of celiac disease, it's something that some individuals with well-managed celiac disease report, and there may be a few plausible explanations for why the two could be connected. The most common theory involves continued damage to the gut lining or nutrient deficiencies (like chromium or magnesium) that can impair the body's ability to regulate blood sugar effectively, even after gluten is removed. Another possibility is delayed stomach emptying (gastroparesis) or issues with the hormones that manage blood sugar release, like glucagon. Since your doctors are puzzled, it may be worth discussing these specific mechanisms with a gastroenterologist or endocrinologist. You are certainly not alone in experiencing this puzzling complication, and it highlights how celiac disease can have long-term metabolic effects beyond the digestive tract.

      Paracetamol, aka, acetaminophen (Tylenol) just does not do anything for me as far as pain relief. It does help with fevers, though.
