Nestle Qwik Syrups

I had this at my sister's awhile back because after calling up nestle they said they'd be gluten free because the label would say otherwise if they did, and I felt fine then.

So I bought some, (strawberry and rolo) at home and now I notice that I don't feel very good after having them.

Since I have nebulous reactions to gluten itself, I'm wondering what it is in their products that disagrees with me. I've probably avoided almost all products that say artificial flavoring as a matter of course in avoiding gluten, so that could be it, or I'm wondering if there is indeed gluten hidden in the product.

I only asked the company about gluten and not dairy, even though I have issues with dairy too, because I figure the same rules apply to gluten as dairy in terms of labelling

Anyone have any reactions specifically do nestle syrups and if so, what do you think it is that's in them?

Dairy is a priority allergen in Canada and a FALCPA allergen in the US. It's presence can not, by law, be hidden. It must be clearly disclosed using the word "milk."

      Abnormal Labs, Should I Be Concerned?

      By Ginger38 · Posted

      I also had high eosinophils which I’ve never had before either - could that be due to gluten consumption?

      You're welcome! Be sure the patient eats at least ten grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks prior to repeating antibody testing.   Some people unconsciously reduce the amount of gluten in their diet because the feel unwell.  Three grams of gluten per day is sufficient to produce symptoms.  Only at ten grams or more is the immune system provoked to raise the antibody production high enough so that the antibodies leave the digestive tract and enter the blood stream where they can be measured.   Read the comments below the article...

      Thanks for your response and thoughts. Total IgA is normal. HLA DQ2/DQ8 came as heterozygous and the interpretation of the lab that the risk of coeliac disease is mild to moderate. Thyroid function test is normal. I agree that the best way is to repeat tTG antibodies in 6 months time as the result was not massively high.

      Welcome to the forum, @Wamedh Taj-Aldeen, How is the patient's thyroid?   You could check for thiamine deficiency which can cause the thyroid to either become hyper or hypo.  TTg IgA can be high in both hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism.  tTg IgA can also be high if patient is taking medications to stimulate the thyroid as in hypothyroidism.   Thanks for visiting!  Keep us posted!
