Was just wondering which of the gluten free herbal teas out there that a lot of you prefer?

I like Bigelow Orange and Spice tea. It says gluten free on the box. Check out their website, they are all listed. They have a bunch of good ones.

FYI, all Twinings teas are gluten free too!

I don't know where to start. There are thousands upon thousands of herbal tea ingredients and blends. What I drink most often right now is the following:

Republic of Tea Harvest Chai

Republic of Tea Cinnamon Vanilla

Choice Tea Northwest Blackberry

Yogi Tea Lemon Ginger

Yogi Tea Classic Indian Spice

Remedy Tea Mulling Spice

Teavana Gingerbread Cookie

Teavana Sweet Fruit Garden

Homemade blend: red raspberry leaf, nettle leaves, rosehips, and hibiscus

Homemade blend: chamomile, fennel, mint, and ginger

Homemade tea of fresh lemon slices, fresh ginger, and honey

Homemade chamomile

But there are a lot of others I drink at other times.

What kind of herbal tea do you like?

My daughter loves Bigelow's Sweet Dreams tea. It is a chamomile/mint tea.

Celestial Seasons peppermint is 100 percent mint (and it's an anti-inflammatory, so is chamomile)

I also do hibiscus and plum (2 hibiscus bags/4 plum teabags)... for a natural sweet and it's great iced to keep in the fridge.

If you like licorice, the Stash Licorice Spice is wonderful. I also like the Celestial Seasonings Mint Medley.

Thanks everyone, i'm drinking Lipton and Luzianne, and no matter how much I dilute it, it has a stong taste that makes my mouth dry for some reason and and causes a tiny bit of reflux. That's why I was asking in another post if the tea bags might have been sealed with gluten. I was hoping the herbals wouldn't do this.

If you've been drinking black tea, it's quite possible that is causing the reflux. Caffeine is a reflux trigger for many people.

Thanks Tarnalberry, it's irritating that i'm just now finding out about the caffine. One of those duh moments again. "Slapping myself upside of the head" :(

      I have had a long year of testing unfortunately still not diagnosed , although one thing they definitely agree I'm gluten intolerant, the thing for me I have severe back troubles they wouldnt perform the tests and I couldn't have a full MRI because I'm allergic to the solution , we tryed believe me  I tryed lol , another was to have another blood test after consuming gluten but it makes me so bad I tryed it for only a week, and because I have a trapped sciatic nerve when I get bad bowels it sets that off terribly so I just take it on myself now , I eat a gluten free diet , I'm the best I've ever been , and if I slip I know it so for me i have my own diagnosis  and I act accordingly, sometimes it's not so straight forward for some of us , for the first time in years I can plan to go out , and I have been absorbing my food better , running to the toilet has become occasionally now instead of all the time , i hope you find a solution 🤗

      I was undiagnosed for decades. My ferritin when checked in 2003 was 3. It never went above 10 in the next 20 years. I was just told to "take iron". I finally requested the TTgIgA test in 2023 when I was well and truly done with the chronic fatigue and feeling awful. My numbers were off the charts on the whole panel.  they offered me an endoscopic biopsy 3 months later, but that i would need to continue eating gluten for it to be accurate. so i quit eating gluten and my intestine had healed by the time i had the biopsy (i'm guessing??). Why else would my TTgIgA be so high if not celiacs? Anyway, your ferritin will rise as your intestine heals and take HEME iron (brand 4 arrows). I took 20mg of this with vitamin c and lactoferrin and my ferritin went up, now sits around 35.  you will feel dramatically better getting your ferritin up, and you can do it orally with the right supplements. I wouldn't get an infusion, you will get as good or better results taking heme iron/vc/lf.

      Scott, I agree with everything you said except the term "false negative". It should be a "true negative" just plain negative. I actually looked up true/false negative/positive as it pertains to testing. The term "false negative" would be correct if you are positive (have anti-bodies) and the test did not pick them up. That would be a problem with the "test" itself. If you were gluten-free and got tested, you more than likely would test "true" negative or just negative. This means that the gluten-free diet is working and no anti-bodies should be present. I know it sounds confusing and if you don't agree feel free to respond.

      I realized it is actually important to get an official diagnosis because then insurance can cover bone density testing and other lab work to see if any further damage has been done because of it. Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have 4 kids, and I really want to know. If I really do have it then they may have increased risk.

      Been off this forum for years. Is it that important that you get an official diagnosis of something? It appears like you had a trigger (wheat, gluten, whatever) and removing it has resolved your symptom. I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free condition. I was diagnosed over 20 years ago and have been symptom free only excluding wheat, rye and barley. I tolerate all naturally gluten free whole foods including things like beans which actually helps to form the stools.
