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.

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?

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 don't see how cornstarch could alter the test results. Where did you read that?

      For pain relief I take a combination of Thiamine (Benfotiamine), Pyridoxine B 6, and Cobalamine B12.  The combination of these three vitamins has analgesic effects.  I have back pain and this really works.  The B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted.   Hope this helps!  Keep us posted on your results!

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Xravith. I experienced similar symptoms before my diagnosis.  Mine were due to the loss of vitamins and minerals, essential nutrients we must get from our food.  With Celiac Disease, the intestinal lining, made up of thousands of villi, gets damaged and cannot absorb essential vitamins and minerals, especially the eight B vitamins.  The loss of Thiamine B 1 can cause muscle loss, inability to gain weight, edema (swelling), fatigue, migraines and palpitations.  Low thiamine can cause Gastrointestinal Beriberi with symptoms of nausea, abdominal pain and bloating.   Thiamine is only stored for a couple of weeks, so if you don't absorb enough from food daily, as the thiamine deficiency worsens physical symptoms gradually worsen.  If you're eating lots of carbs (like gluten containing foods usually do), you need more thiamine to process them (called high calorie malnutrition).  Thiamine works with all the other B vitamins, so if you're low in one, you're probably getting low in the others, too, and minerals like iron, magnesium, zinc, and calcium, as well as Vitamin D..  Talk to your doctor about checking for nutritional deficiencies.  Most doctors rarely recognize vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially in thiamine. Get a DNA test to see if you carry any Celiac genes.  If you do not have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably IBS.  If you do have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably Celiac.  I was misdiagnosed with IBS for years before my Celiac diagnosis.   Keep us posted on your progress. P. S. Deficiency in thiamine can cause false negatives on antibody tests, as can diabetes and anemia.

      No she didn't because if I want to ask I have to pay 700$ for 1 hour appointment so I couldn't even ask. I read that fillers like cornstash can alter the result and tylenol contains it so that's why I tried to find someone who can answer.

      Did the GI doc give you any rational for stopping the Tylenol during the gluten challenge? I have never heard of this before and I can't imagine a good reason for it. Ibuprofen, maybe, because it is an anti inflammatory but acetaminophen?  I don't see that it would have any impact on the test results to take Tylenol.
