Licorice

I know I have read something about this, but can't find it now. Is licorice gluten free? I tried a new (to me) herbal tea with licorice and I feel a little peculiar today. It may be totally unrelated to gluten, but I just wondered about licorice.

I'm fairly sure pure licorice would be, but all licorice treats I have found in the store have gluten in them...I miss licorice :(

I think it's licorice candy that they add gluten to.

Sounds like it's time far a call to the company. Thanks, y'all. I'll let you know what I find out and give the name of the tea. It really is good, so I hope it's OK.

read the ingredients, my favorite candy. But there is wheat in the ingredients of the ones that I can get at my stores.

I don't have an answer about the tea but Gimbals makes gluten free licorice scotties.

I eat the jelly beans all the time but haven't seen the scotties in stores. Now that I found the website I'll have to order a bunch. Off to do so right now.

There is gluten-free licorice out there. I think Organ makes it and also Candy Tree. If it is the herb it should be gluten-free but it always could be cross contaminated.

I've ordered Candy Tree through (Company Name Removed - They Spammed This Forum and are Banned)....not quite the same as the old red licorice with wheat in it but a nice treat !!!

      Thank you for the welcome and reply. The first test was tissue transglutaminase IGA and it was normal. The second test just simply says IGA and it was 638. You definitely answered my question, it sounds like im negative for celiac since the 1st test was normal, and that another condition has caused the abnormal result of the IGA. That's exactly what I was wondering. Im almost positive I have MS and I've read results are higher like that with early onset. Or it could be IBS. Hopefully the visit with the neurologist will give me even more answers and point to a final diagnosis. I really appreciate you taking the time to reply and for helping. Thank you so much!

      Welcome to the forum, @daniellelawson2011! First, we need to deal with terminology here. When you refer to the "ttg" test I take that to mean the ttg-iga. And when you refer to the "iga" test I take that to mean total iga since the magnitude of the score would suggest that. Total iga is not a test for celiac disease per se. It is run in order to check for iga deficiency. If you are iga deficient, then the ttg-iga and other iga tests that are specific for celiac disease will be abnormally low and this would potentially produce false negatives. You are not iga deficient but, rather, your total iga is abnormally high. This can suggest underlying health conditions, some of them can be serious in nature.  ...

      After struggling with many different symptoms for years with no diagnosis, I decided to do my own research and I stumbled upon an article about celiac disease. I asked my PCP to order a ttg and iga. The results: the iga was high at 638. The ttg was negative. Of course I will discuss with my doctor, but i would like to hear from people that have went through the process of diagnosis to maybe give me some insight on what this means and where to go from here. Also of note, i had a brain mri which showed white lesions which arent typical at 44 years old. I have many MS symptoms. I go to the neurologist on Tuesday, but just curious if anyone knows if there is a correlation between iga and MS. I...

      Thankyou so much for your reply I decided to skip the senna has I've already had very loose stools last few days I've cut my portions down on the low fiber diet too and drinking lots of liquid has I just thought it would be wise to listen to myself too I've probably already done wat the senna would of done myself naturally by drinking clear apple juice which if not on the diet I would have to avoid anyways has I don't tolerate many fruit juices so I'm sure I've done the right thing I did try to contact the department on my letter but weirdly enough it was ringing but then after a while saying wrong number 🤷 but again I'm positive I've done the right thing I'm going to take today very lightly too with...
