Kaiti,

Hi, thanks for your reply about Reeds. Concerning the Coke/Pepsi soft drinks. They contain caramel flavoring, I thought that was unsafe?

Having trouble replying, the website will not let me. Dont know why.

Thanks again.

Nope, caramel coloring CAN be questionable but most of the time it is fine. Make sure you check but in this case they are safe.Most of softdrinks are gluten free. Enjoy :D Feel free to contact me if you need any help with anything.

Hi,

Thanks again. I didnt know that Pepsi/Coke soft drinks were gluten-free. How about the Diet Coke/Pepsi drinks. Talk to you later. Take care.

Diet Coke and Diet Pepsi are also gluten free.

Many sodas are in fact gluten free. Be especially cautious of off brands because they may or may not be gluten free. Just always have to check on things with celiac.

My personal favorite sodas are Sprite and Dr Pepper.

MOST of Coke is gluten-free...diet, caffeine-free, diet and caffeine-free, diet coke with lemon, etc. ALL Pepsi, co. softdrinks are gluten-free...that includes not only Pepsi, but Slice, Mountain Dew, and a number of other drinks......

Caramel color is one of those questionable ingredients, like modified food starch.

Here are the Coke gluten free products from their response:

Coca-Cola classic, caffeine free Coca-Cola classic,

Coca-Cola C2, Diet Coke, Diet Coke with Lemon, Diet Coke with Lime, caffeine

free Diet Coke, Sprite, Sprite ReMix Berryclear, Diet Sprite Zero, vanilla Coke,

diet vanilla Coke, cherry Coke, Fresca, and our 100% juice products (without

added ingredients) are gluten free.

Additionally, we can tell you that all of our other products meet Codex's

definition of gluten-free, which is currently less than 200 ppm (parts per

million) (0.02%) gluten.

So technically they consider all their products gluten free but some may have trace amounts.

Basically, it's all gluten-free, but some aren't tested, so the manufacturers will only guarantee a select few:

Coca-Cola Company (www.coke.com) (ve=7/29/04)

Confirms that Coca-Cola classic, caffeine free Coca-Cola classic, Coca-Cola C2, Diet Coke, Diet Coke with Lemon, Diet Coke with Lime, caffeine free Diet Coke, Sprite, Sprite ReMix Berryclear, diet Sprite, vanilla Coke, diet vanilla Coke, cherry Coke, Fresca, and our 100% juice products (without added ingredients) are gluten free.  *Additionally, we can tell you that all of our other products meet Codex's definition of gluten-free, which is less than 200 ppm (0.02%) gluten. Codex has examined the data and determined that less than 200 ppm gluten is below the level in which people with celiac disease would experience adverse reactions. However, at this time the U.S. Food and Drug Administration does not have a regulatory definition of gluten-free. We can assure you that the exact amount of gluten in these products is very low - perhaps even zero. Some minor ingredients in these products are manufactured from plants that gluten-sensitive people could react to, so we are unable to state categorically that they are totally gluten-free even though they may have undetectable levels of gluten in them. The Codex guideline provides a very low threshold for gluten content and exposures below this level are not expected to result in damage to the majority of gluten-sensitive individuals. However, extremely gluten-sensitive individuals should discuss consumption of these products with their health care provider.

Do you have the safe and forbidden list?

https://www.celiac.com/st_main.html?p_catid=12

Go to the link above if you do not have that yet. Also, if you haven't already, products such as makeups, shampoos, lotions, soaps, in addition to foods should be checked due to a high chance of ingestion in some way, shape, or form. This is a great source for information so you definitely came to the right place.Welcome :D

For those of us who are fond of the "off brands" I know that the Safeway select and Shasta soda's are gluten-free. I wish I would have know about the shasta gluten-free status when I was in the hospital last time. I gave up the "free cupboard of soda" and had someone alwas go buy me Coke or something.

      It can take longer than 6 months for antibodies to drop to the normal range,  My DGP IgA took a few years as I got stricter and stricter about being gluten free  But having symptoms again could also mean you’re getting some gluten in your diet.

      Hi, I just had my 6 month check after being diagnosed Celiac 6 months ago.  All of my panel numbers were normal except: Deamidated Gliadin Abs, IgA (It is 31 with high being over 30)  I have also been having symptoms again. Am I not actually being as careful as I think I am or does it take longer than 6 months for this particular test to come back down?  I can't get ahold of my doctor this week as she is out.     Thank you!
    • Scott Adams
      That is very strange, because it looks to me like two very different test results, but for the same test! It's definitely time to contact your doctor for clarity on this.
    • Redanafs
      Same day which is strange to me. 
    • JForman
      Scott, thank you SO MUCH for this!! She has been through so much in the last three years as we've tried to track down answers. This language will definitely help me help her to reframe.
