Tamari & Coffee

Hi

I was wondering if anyone uses Tamari Soy Sauce??? Supposedly it's gluten-free but I've used it a few times and end up w/ glutened symptoms...just curious if anyone had any input.

Also, is coffee something you have to check w/ each manufactor about? I'm talking about already ground up coffee you buy at the store, not coffee that you get at Starbucks, etc.

Thanks!!

I use Bragg's which is just soy without alcohol. I don't know if the alcohol in Tamari would be a problem though. I like the little spray bottle Bragg's comes in...I make avocado sushi rolls at home and take it in a little ziplock container on road trips. That way I just get out at the picnic table and spray my sushi. We get a few strange looks, I'll admit.

Tarmari is not universally gluten-free; you've got to find a version that doesn't have wheat in it. San-J makes a gluten-free tamari.

Edensoy also makes a gluten-free soy tamari soy sauce.

Most tamari DOES have wheat. You have to check. I've never found a coffee like you're asking about with gluten. When I started I was warned about decaf and flavored coffees in cans and bags, but in four years have yet to find one that isn't gluten-free. For some reason, I still worry about the flavored ones, which I don't really like anyway, but just regular coffee is without exception gluten-free.

Perhaps it's a problem with soy?

lovegrov Collaborator

That is the San J one without wheat? They make both.

Don't know about the coffee, but as for Tamari, It CAN be wheat-free, but not necessaritly. I thought "Tamari" meant wheat-free. It doesn't. Just check to see that it's wheat/gluten- free. I learned this the hard way.

Okay issue resolved....apparently the San-J Tamari I have is NOT the gluten-free one...

DUHHHHH. How dumb am I feeling right now? Then again, I am still new to this so that makes me feel only half as dumb...HA!!

Thanks everyone!

      I forgot to mention my suspicion of the high amount of glyphosate allowed to be used on wheat in USA and NZ and Australia. My weight was 69kg mid-2023, I went down to 60kg in March 2024 and now hover around 63kg (just after winter here in NZ) - wheat-free and very low alcohol consumption.

      Hi Jess Thanks so much for your response and apologies for the long delay in answering. I think I must have been waiting for something to happen before I replied and unfortunately it fell off the radar... I have had an upper endoscopy and colonoscopy in the meantime (which revealed 'minor' issues only). Yes I do think histamine intolerance is one of the problems. I have been lowering my histamine intake and feeling a lot better. And I do think it is the liver which is giving the pain. I am currently taking zinc (I have had three low zinc tests now), magnesium, B complex, vitamin E and a calcium/Vitamin C mix. I consciously think about getting vitamin D outside. (Maybe I should have my vitamin D re-tested now...) I am still 100% gluten-free. My current thoughts on the cause of the problems is some, if not all, of the following: Genetically low zinc uptake, lack of vitamin D, wine drinking (alcohol/sulphites), covid, immune depletion, gastroparesis, dysbiosis, leaky gut, inability to process certain foods I am so much better than late 2023 so feel very positive 🙂

      Hi and thank you very much for your detailed response! I am so glad that the protocol worked so well for you and helped you to get your health back on track. I've heard of it helping other people too. One question I have is how did you maintain your weight on this diet? I really rely on nuts and rice to keep me at a steady weight because I tend to lose weight quickly and am having a hard time envisioning how to make it work, especially when not being able to eat things like nuts and avocados. In case you have any input, woud be great to hear it! Friendly greetings.

      I was not taking any medications previous to this. I was a healthy 49 yo with some mild stomach discomfort. I noticed the onset of tinnitus earlier this year and I had Covid at the end of June. My first ‘flare-up’ with these symptoms was in August and I was eating gluten like normal. I had another flare-up in September and then got an upper endo at the end of September that showed possible celiac. My blood test came a week later. While I didn’t stop eating gluten before I had the blood test, I had cut back on food and gluten both. I had a flare-up with this symptoms after one week of gluten free but wasn’t being crazy careful. Then I had another flare-up this week. I think it might have been caused by Trader Joe’s baked tofu which I didn’t realize had wheat. But I don’t know if these flare-ups are caused by gluten or if there’s something else going on. I am food journaling and tracking all symptoms. I have lost 7 pounds in the last 10 days.

      Welcome to the forum, @Hmart! There are other medical conditions besides celiac disease that can cause villous atrophy as well as some medications and for some people, the dairy protein casein. So, your question is a valid one. Especially in view of the fact that your antibody testing was negative, though there are also some seronegative celiacs. So, do you get reactions every time you consume gluten? If you were to purposely consume a slice of bread would you be certain to develop the symptoms you describe?
