They do..but be aware, those packages of cookies have oats in them and a lot of celiacs can't have oats...myself being one of them. I was so excited that I bought the cookies without reading the ingredients properly :angry: They do sell fruit and nut bars that are gluten free and delish as well though!!

oh ok Im sorry that you can't have oats.

I had an extremely violent reaction from that product and emailed the Lucy company, and they mentioned that there is a huge possibility of the oats being contaminated.

What about the flavorings in Starbucks coffee? I am newly gluten-free, and I can't figure out if I can have the Caramel or the Pumpkin Spice flavors in my lattes. Or if I can have the frappacinos. Starbucks won't say if anything is gluten-free. Anyone have info on this?

I read on this site not to drink the frappachinos because some of them do contain gluten and they don't wash the blenders between, just a light rinse. Maybe you could ask for a fresh blender and find out which flavours are gluten free, because some must be. I believe the caramel is gluten free, I drink caramel macciatos on occasion and I'm pretty sensitive.

Best way to find out is to go in during a non-busy time and ask exactly what goes into the latte. For a Caramel Latte it would usually be just espresso, frothed milk, and carmel syrup flavoring. Ask to see the bottle of caramel flavoring--you can read the ingredients for yourself. Also ask about whipped cream and if they use a different caramel for the topping. The whipped cream if made fresh in the store "should" be safe, but they will usually add a flavoring to it so you have to ask how it is made and find out the ingredients of that flavoring as well(I used to work at a coffee house-not Starbucks).

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
