SOY COFFEE INTRODUCES THE FIRST COMPLETE LINE OF 
GLUTEN-FREE COFFEE SUBSTITUTES 
(New York, NY) Soy Coffee, LLC, makers of Soyfee, has introduced Americas 
first line of wheat free, gluten-free coffee substitutes. "Quitting coffee has 
never been this easy (or tasty) until now for celiacs," says Marina Kushner, 
founder & CEO of Soy Coffee, LLC.

In a world of coffee substitutes, Soyfee is made from pure non-gmo organic 
soybeans. "We don't use grains like barley, a gluten, commonly found in 
traditional substitutes," says Marina Kushner. "Nor do we use added sweeteners"

People with celiac disease are unable to metabolize gluten. When digested, 
celiac sufferers have a reaction that destroys the villi on the small 
intestines, which is responsible for moving the nutrients out of the small intestines 
and into the bloodstream. This leaves the body unable to absorb many nutrients 
including water. There is no known cure and sufferers must remove all sources 
of gluten from their diet. The most common sources of gluten include barley, 
wheat, oats and rye. Unfortunately, gluten is also in common fillers and 
sweeteners.

According to the American Medical Association, about one in 300 Americans 
suffers from celiac disease. Often this disease goes undetected until 
symptomsdevelop: including diarrhea,constipation, gas,excessive weight loss, and abnormal 
nutrient
deficiencies. If allowed to progress, they may develop diseases such as 
osteoporosis, lymphoma, and colon cancer.

Sadly, the disease is hard to detect because everyone has different symptoms. 
To be accurately diagnosed,you must continue to consume the gluten. Blood 
tests are then administered to screen for antibodies to gluten. Because Soy 
Coffee LLC is dedicated to their customers with the disease, the latest 
updates,accurate information, and links to labs and other resources are available at 
www.soycoffee.com.

Smooth and vitamin rich, Soyfee taste just like traditional coffee while 
offering important nutrients(such as isoflavones) that coffee does not provide. 
Like coffee, Soyfee is best brewed. Unlike coffee,Soyfee is free of caffeine and 
stomach churning acids.The soybeans are certified kosher & certified 
organic.Soyfee is available in seven varieties: originalroast, dark roast, hazelnut, 
french vanilla, mocha,almond amaretto and house blend. The flavors are all 
natural and contain no propylene glycol.
