Fresca does not contain gluten, but how does it settle with you... just wonderin'? ;) I am not super sensitive.

... but I rather suspect oysters in 70 degree weather. <_<

I seem to have an issue with the sweeteners in some diet sodas. I do OK with the Coke made with Splenda & use Splenda in my coffee. I do OK with that one that has Truvia sweetener. Haven't has a Fresca in years.

That's helpful Karen.

The kids left some here and I thought I'd try it. It usually takes a cumulative exposure to something for me to react, which happened. I do fine with Coke, Pepsi and with diet. Fresca does issue a warning on it's ingredient listing to Phenylalanine. If Fresca was my issue, perhaps a bit too much chemical for me.

But, then again it could have been those darn oysters.

Either way, it's no big deal. I will lay off the Fresca and will wait until the cool weather settles in for more oysters. :D Sometimes, ya just don't know. ;) But, it's okay.

The Open Original Shared Link is not actually in the product. If I understand correctly, it is a byproduct of the metabolism of aspartame. Phenylketonurics lack the ability to break it down into its component amino acids, and must limit their intake to prevent buildup of high levels. Hence the warning label.

I haven't had Fresca in a while, but never had a problem with it.

Artificial sweeteners do bother me but I used to love Fresca! My dietitian has advised me not to ingest anything containing aspartame and so on as it may make my fibro worse so I am now avoiding it.

      Found coffee or coffee pods that contain gluten

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @linnylou73! Are you claiming this based on a reaction or based upon actual testing?

      Helping child go strict gluten-free and concerns about growth/height

      This varies a lot from person to person. I include foods that are not certified gluten-free but are labelled "gluten-free", while super sensitive people only use certified gluten-free. Both types of products have been found to contain gluten, so there are no guarantees either way: It you are in the super sensitive group, eating a whole foods based diet where you prepare everything is the safest bet, but it's also difficult. Eating out is the the most risky, even if a restaurant has a gluten-free menu. I also include items that are naturally gluten-free, for example refried beans, tuna, pasta sauces, salsas, etc., which have a low overall risk of contamination.

      Juice shots? Anti inflammatory

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I avoid turmeric now because I'm on low dose aspirin, but used to use this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08HYBN4DJ My recipes always vary according to what I have on hand, but my base is a frozen berry mix from Trader Joe's: https://www.traderjoes.com/home/products/pdp/fruits-greens-smoothie-blend-075603 In the warmer months I include herbs from my garden like Italian parsley and basil. I add almond milk as well.
