Tropicana Oj

I bought some 8oz tropicana "Healthy Kids" oj today, and when I called to check on it the very nice man told me the "secret" to identifying gluten-free tropicana products. I know many of you might know this already, but it was news to me so I thought I'd share. Tropicana products that list "natural flavors" as an ingredient are not gluten-free, and if "natural flavors" are not listed you still need to check the carton for a code. After the "best by" date there should be a long production code -- if it starts with 48, 12, or 33, it was made on a dedicated line and is gluten free. Otherwise, even if there are no "natural flavors" they do not guarantee it is free from cross-contamination.

Thank god!! Reading this made me sooo scared, but mine says 48 before it. Though yikes.. hopefully the others I use to have, were gluten-free too.

Thanks for this post!! Since I drink it, and thought it was all gluten-free.

Mine says 48, too, and doesn't contain natural flavors. Tropicana OJ w/ calcium is gluten-free. Thanks again, Joanna.

Yeah, that's the kind I have too. But seeing this thread made me go "AHHHH!" So I ran downstairs and checked, LOL.

Phew. =)

      That's a good idea. It can at least establish the potential for developing celiac disease and can help people decided between a celiac diagnosis and NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). And it doesn't require a gluten challenge and can be had without a doctor's prescription.

      I have my endoscopy on Thursday, has anyone had the procedure done with a cough? I don't have a continuous cough, but every now and then throughout the day I have sort of coughing episodes. They are a lot better than they were but I called endoscopy and they said to speak to my gp and my gp got back to me and said I need to ask endoscopy if its ok if I have it done still.  Help!

      Thank you so much, everyone. For the moment my doctor just has me taking iron but hopefully we can reconnect soon. I'm going to look into genetic testing, too. Great advice all around and I appreciate it--and you can bet I'm going off the PPIs!

      I walk fast for fitness, 4 to 6 km per day. I am also 74 years old. Apart from the Celiac challenge, my lifestyle is healthy. I had a sciatiac nerve pinching under my one foot, with inflamation in my whole shin. It was almost cured, when the other shin started paining and burning. I do stretches, use a natural cooling gel and rest my feet. Can Celiac cause muscle pains/inflamation, or is it just over-excercising?

      I recently started shopping at a nearby Trader Joe's store. I was surprised at the number and variety of (healthy) gluten-free options sold there. I must admit their low prices are also quite tempting. However, I am curious as to the labeling on all their packages. While none of their products are certified as gluten-free, many are identified as 'GLUTEN FREE' on the packaging. Are these items safe for celiacs? Has anyone tried Trader Joe's products and have there been any adverse reactions?
