Does anyone know if Starbucks Soy lattes are gluten free? I hate giving up my lattes. I know I can't have their Frapes, but would like to continue with my hot lattes.

I personally had a reaction to the soy white mochas. My doctor had me go dairy free for 6 months after being diagnosed. I'm now slowly introducing dairy back into my diet with success. I suggest buying a coffee pot and making your own coffee with safe, organic products.

I agree. Pacific foods has now come out with a tasty chocolate hemp milk which I will try in my coffee tommorrow morning. I drank a glass last night and it was good and do sometimes like a little flavoring in my coffee too.

Quite a few of us react to soy as well as gluten. That and dairy are the most common other intolerances. You may or may not have an issue with soy. Not everyone does but if you keep having issues after you have been gluten free for a while then cut out soy and dairy and see if it helps.

Dairy was the first thing I had to keep away from... Thankfully going on just meats & veggies for a week helped me figure that one out quickly... I'm not sure if soy does or not... So far I'm not noticing anything but they I do have my times when I know I've had something I shouldn't...

You guys are great!

Yes, they are. I drink soy as I have a dairy issue and even though I knew they were gluten-free from reading the label, I called Bucky's to back up what I was reading. I have never gotten sick or had the slightest issue with them and I am uber-sensitive. Enjoy!

If you have been drinking soy milk and haven't had any problems, then don't worry about it. Not as many people are soy intolerant as gluten intolerant. I can't have dairy, along with no gluten, but can eat soy with zero problems. It's a really good substitute for milk and is a good protein source.

Soy is supposed to be bad for your thyroid but it has had no effect on mine and I have Hashimoto's thyroid. My thyroid has been improving by leaps and bounds and I drink soy about 2-3 times per week. Go figure.

I just wanted to let whoever know that the white chocolate that Starbucks uses has dairy in it. When I was off of dairy I asked to read the ingredients and low and behold - there it was - the main ingredients (besides sugar) were diary.

That could have been what you reacted to, pixespirit.

One other thing though, is that if you go to a Starbucks with an automatic espresso machine, that they use coffee pods in, there could possibly be very small amounts of gluten. Some one I know found out that they were drinking coffee made from a pod and contacted the company and found out that they use gluten in the glue to hold the paper together for the pods.

I just thought of this recently after realizing that every time I have espresso from Starbucks I get sick, but not from any of the local coffee shops. Just a thought! B)

From what I was told, Starbucks soy milk is not gluten-free. If memory serves, I called the company, although that was maybe 8-10 months back. Things may have changed since then.

Pacific Foods makes some great stuff, now if only they would accept my application one of these days.

      Newly diagnosed mam to coeliac 11 year old

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celic.com community @Dizzyma! I'm assuming you are in the U.K. since you speak of your daughter's celiac disease blood tests as "her bloods".  Has her physician officially diagnosed her has having celiac disease on the results of her blood tests alone? Normally, if the ttg-iga blood test results are positive, a follow-up endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining to check for damage would be ordered to confirm the results of "the bloods". However if the ttg-iga test score is 10x normal or greater, some physicians, particularly in the U.K., will dispense with the endoscopy/biopsy. If there is to be an endoscopy/biopsy, your daughter should not yet begin the gluten free diet as doing so would allow healing of the small bowel lining to commence which may result in a biopsy finding having results that conflict with the blood work. Do you know if an endoscopy/biopsy is planned? Celiac disease can have onset at any stage of life, from infancy to old age. It has a genetic base but the genes remain dormant until and unless triggered by some stress event. The stress event can be many things but it is often a viral infection. About 40% of the general population have the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. So, for most, the genes remain dormant.  Celiac disease is by nature an autoimmune disorder. That is to say, gluten ingestion triggers an immune response that causes the body to attack its own tissues. In this case, the attack happens in he lining of the small bowel, at least classically, though we now know there are other body systems that can sometimes be affected. So, for a person with celiac disease, when they ingest gluten, the body sends attacking cells to battle the gluten which causes inflammation as the gluten is being absorbed into the cells that make up the lining of the small bowel. This causes damage to the cells and over time, wears them down. This lining is composed of billions of tiny finger-like projections and which creates a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients from the food we eat. This area of the intestinal track is where all of our nutrition is absorbed. As these finger-like projections get worn down by the constant inflammation from continued gluten consumption before diagnosis (or after diagnosis in the case of those who are noncompliant) the efficiency of nutrient absorption from what we eat can be drastically reduced. This is why iron deficiency anemia and other nutrient deficiency related medical problems are so common in the celiac population. So, to answer your question about the wisdom of allowing your daughter to consume gluten on a limited basis to retain some tolerance to it, that would not be a sound approach because it would prevent healing of the lining of her small bowel. It would keep the fires of inflammation smoldering. The only wise course is strict adherence to a gluten free diet, once all tests to confirm celiac disease are complete.

      Newly diagnosed mam to coeliac 11 year old

      Hi all, I have so many questions and feel like google is giving me very different information. Hoping I may get some more definite answers here. ok, my daughter has been diagnosed as a coeliac as her bloods show anti TTG antibodies are over 128. We have started her  on a full gluten free diet. my concerns are that she wasn’t actually physically sick on her regular diet, she had tummy issues and skin sores. My fear is that she will build up a complete intolerance to gluten and become physically sick if she has gluten. Is there anything to be said for keeping a small bit of gluten in the diet to stop her from developing a total intolerance?  also, she would be an anxious type of person, is it possible that stress is the reason she has become coeliac? I read that diagnosis later in childhood could be following a sickness or stress. How can she have been fine for the first 10 years and then become coeliac? sorry, I’m just very confused and really want to do right by her. I know a coeliac and she has a terrible time after she gets gluttened so just want to make sure going down a total gluten free road is the right choice. thank you for any help or advise xx

      Severe severe mouth pain

      By Russ H · Posted

      Hi Charlie, You sound like you have been having a rough time of it. Coeliac disease can cause a multitude of skin, mouth and throat problems. Mouth ulcers and enamel defects are well known but other oral conditions are also more common in people with coeliac disease: burning tongue, inflamed and swollen tongue, difficulty swallowing, redness and crusting in the mouth corners, and dry mouth to name but some. The link below is for paediatric dentistry but it applies to adults too.  Have you had follow up for you coeliac disease to check that your anti-tTG2 antibodies levels have come down? Are you certain that you not being exposed to significant amounts of gluten? Are you taking a PPI for your Barrett's oesophagus? Signs of changes to the tongue can be caused by nutritional deficiencies, particularly iron, B12 and B9 (folate) deficiency. I would make sure to take a good quality multivitamin every day and make sure to take it with vitamin C containing food - orange juice, broccoli, cabbage etc.  Sebaceous hyperplasia is common in older men and I can't find a link to coeliac disease.   Russ.   Oral Manifestations in Pediatric Patients with Coeliac Disease – A Review Article
