Another Question About Coffee's


GFreeMO

Recommended Posts

I did a search on this topic as I always do before posting and found conflicting information. Is 100% ground DECAF coffee gluten free? I have recently started drinking coffee again. I have been drinking regular coffee but I am finding that it is causing me stomach pain, intense bladder pain and gas cramps. I am thinking decaf may be better but I need to know if it is gluten free. From what I read in old posts, I can't come to a conclusion.

Thanks

Plain coffee, whether decaffeinated or regular, is gluten-free. If a flavor is added, is is possible that the flavor may contain gluten (although not common).

Also, instant coffee might not be gluten free.

Coffee is hard on the stomach (actual stomach.) You might want to drink less for a bit, or substitute with tea. I've had a few times where my stomach was clearly not okay with coffee (but it definitely wasn't a celiac reaction)--I just gave it up for a few days and then drank it in moderation.

According to Shelley Case, regular and instant coffee are both gluten-free, with the exception noted above for flavored coffee.

Just called up Community Coffee since I got a free cup of something flavored, and the rep told me without hesitation that all their flavored coffee is gluten free. Hope this helps someone!

      Definitely worth speaking to your gastroenterologist about this. My own told me that by using Gaviscon a barrier forms over the contents of the stomach and stops gas and acid irritating the throat.  In fact, he said to me that because I found relief using Gaviscon that was a very clear indicator that reflux was the cause of that particular issue.   A wedge pillow will really help with this - or raising the top bed legs with bricks.

      I did get the pneumonia vaccine about 4 years ago. I had this amazing allergist who did all those vitamin deficiencies test and told to get that vaccine. Unfortunately she retired.  I haven’t been to an allergist in a few years,  I’m not sure what my levels are now. I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young etc. But yes I think I should at the very least get a different opinion. Thank you for your reply

      Yes I do have acid reflux. I’m not on anything for it at the moment. I sometimes wonder if that’s what it could be because I get heart burn every night. I may revisit my gastrointestinal doctor again. Thanks for the reply

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways.  I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux.  Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following a holiday to France in 2019, where I had been exposed to gluten.    The reflux continued into the autumn and winter, my throat itched to begin with, particularly after meals, but it then that feeling of irritation seemed to spread to my lungs.  I even found it difficult to breathe on occasion. What stopped it in its tracks was using a wedge pillow at night, following a reflux diet (you can find them online), not eating 2-4 hours before bed and also having a dose of Gaviscon Advanced at night, which forms a barrier so that acid/food can't go back up your esophagus.  The throat irritation faded, and then I found it easier to breathe again. Just mentioning in case it could be a contributing factor.

      Since initially getting your D checked a few years ago, has it since rebounded to normal levels? Sounds like at some point you got it checked again.
