I keep hearing I should be concerned about tea. What should I be looking for to avoid?

I know there is sometimes barley in green tea, are other herbal teas safe as a rule?

Check for barley in all teas. Read the ingredients. Most are fine but there are a few with barley.

I have seen a few tea boxes with allergy information as some contain barley but it is rare that I found any teas that contain barley. It's always safe to pay close attention to the ingredients and any information provided on the package for those with allergies.

A handful of teas have barley. I've always seen it listed.

You also might see a false urban myth about gluten and teabag adhesives. Don't worry about that one. If the tea does not have a gluten grain listed, it is safe.

I know when I've looked at Tazo teas, I haven't seen any ingredients listed. That's why I've opted for Stash teas, which do list ingredients, in addition to my 'regular' Red Rose tea which is just 100% black tea. I also saw a thread that said that Stash has confirmed their teas are gluten-free. In case that helps!

I used to buy a lot of Yogi brand teas, they must have ingredients listed as I only drink herbal teas and always check the ingredients before buying. I had a Teavana open at the mall by my house recently and the people there are always very helpful and accommodating and know or can find out what is in their teas.

The only issues I've had with teas are the ones with added "flavors". For whatever reason, many of them have added soy. I drink quite a variety of teas, but don't recall seeing any with gluten.

I also buy Stash brand tea. Have been for years with no problems.

I've seen plenty of teas with soy, and a few with barley. You really need to read the labels on them just like with any food item. The ones with extra flavors added are the ones to watch out for.

A lot of Celestial Seasonings teas are gluten free. They're very good about labeling their teas clearly.

      New Celiac Mama in My 30s

      @Mari, did you read that second article that Scott linked? It is the most recently date one. "Researchers comparing rates of headaches, including migraines, among celiac patients and a healthy control group showed that celiac subjects experienced higher rates of headaches than control subjects, with the greatest rates of migraines found in celiac women.  Additionally, celiacs had higher rates of migraine than control subjects, especially in women. In fact, four out of five women with celiac disease suffered from migraines, and without aura nearly three-quarters of the time."

      As far as I know and I have made severalonline searches, celiac disease disease has not been recognized as a cause of migraines or any eye problems. What I wrote must have been confusing.

      Does anyone here also have Afib

      Interesting, when I suffered for a few months with ectopics I noticed that carbohydrates would cause indigestion and bloating in my stomach, then that would lead to my heart skipping beats, and I could feel it in my throat, it was very unsettling.  My last serious bout of this was after eating a Muller Rice Pudding for breakfast.   I happened to be wearing a 48 hour halter at the time and cardiology picked it up, but they weren't worried about what they saw. There was some British doctor who'd made some videos on the Vagus nerve that I remember watching at the time which made sense of what I was experiencing, there did seem to be some sort of connection.

      I asked my cardiologist about stopping vitamins.  He said his tests account for all detectable vitamins from sources other than food.  I only need to stop them for a couple of days.  He has me keep records of meds and vitamins I've ingested over the past 10 days and prior and he does his calculations.
