Old Orange Juice Thread

I replied to a thread about orange juice, it turns out it's from 2005, but.......

I'm sure there's a way to make orange juice without putting flour in it.

That sounds simple and ignorant, but come on......

It's like these companies are playing cat and mouse with us and it just pisses me off. I have no respect for these companies, like Chex cereals

GLUTEN FREE WRITTEN BIG ALL OVER THE BOX

Write to them or call them, and they're like, hum, huh, well, hum,

just ridiculous to play with people like this. There oughta be a law against it and there probably is.

It was one mom who started MADD, right? Maybe I will be the mom to start GHAG (pronounced gag)Get Honest About Gluten.

It isn't usually wheat that is a problem with stuff like juice, IMHO it is more often barley. That unfortunately can be under 'natural flavors'. That said most juices are safe but I always call about the ones with natural flavors or just avoid them.

What we really need is accurate and complete labels but unfortunately if something is used as a 'flavoring agent' in a small amount the FDA does not require it to be listed. Hence the removal from 'barley' in the ingredients of Rice Dream.

Hey Connie, that's a good idea. Go for it. B)

I know a way to make orange juice without gluten:

Buy oranges.

Squeeze out juice.

Drink.

:D

Ok, I am being a little bit smart, but I understand the frustration. There are so many things that it seems like you shouldn't have to question the ingredients, but you do. I can't have soy and very little dairy. I found out I can tolerate goat's milk cheese better than cow's milk cheese. So I was buying goat cheese and checking ingredients and I saw one that had SOY in it. It wasn't flavored either, just plain cheese. With soy added. Why the heck would they need to put soy in cheese? Or tuna that's another one where most cans have soy. Soy is in everything just like gluten. The only good thing is they have to list the soy. Whereas with gluten they don't have to list barley or rye or oats. I think they should have to list any source of gluten. :angry:

omg yes- it's ENRAGING- this "globalization" of our foods- and GMOs... mixing all the food together- we cant all eat the same thing dammit...

and a lot of those "natural flavors" come from factories in china- so scary

right after i got my genetic tests back- i really had to get strict & looked at everything! i never knew they put WHEAT STARCH in my MINI Sugar-free Altoids !!???!!!

OY :angry:

      It's completely understandable to struggle with the gluten challenge, especially when it impacts your health and studies so significantly. Your experience of feeling dramatically better without gluten is a powerful clue, whether it points to celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity. It's very wise of you and your doctor to pause the challenge until your holidays, prioritizing your immediate well-being and exams. To answer your questions, yes, it is possible for blood tests to be negative initially and become positive later as the disease progresses, which is why the biopsy remains the gold standard. Many, many people find the gluten challenge incredibly difficult due to the return of debilitating symptoms, so you are certainly not alone in that struggle. Wishing you the best for your exams and for obtaining clearer answers when you're able to proceed.

      It's smart that you're seeing the gastroenterologist tomorrow. While it's possible this is a severe and persistent inflammatory reaction to gluten, the fact that the pain is movement-dependent and localized with tenderness is important for your specialist to hear. It could indeed be significant inflammation, but it's also worth ruling out other overlapping issues that can affect those with celiac disease. Is it possible you got some gluten in your diet somehow? This could be a possible trigger. Hopefully, tomorrow's appointment will provide clearer answers and a path to relief so you can get back to your lectures and enjoy your weekend. Wishing you all the best for the consultation.

      What exactly are you taking from doterra?

      Hello, I'm back with a second post. The first time I wrote, I mentioned the possibility that my symptoms were related to gluten. I did a genetic test in which I resulted to have the predisposition, but the results of my blood test were all negative without IgA deficiency. My doctor suggested that it was necessary to do a biopsy to rule out Celiac Disease. However, he said, because of my family history and my symptoms were strongly related to gluten, it was very possible that my Celiac Disease is developing and my antibodies may become positive in the future.  I tried to continue the gluten challenge for the biopsy, around 2-3 g of gluten per day, but it was enough to make me feel worse each passing day. I started developing anemia and other mild nutritional deficiencies, and it was really affecting my daily life. I'm a student and exams are coming up, so my doctor suggests me to strictly remove gluten until I feel better so I could study without problems until I could do the gluten challenge when I come back home for holidays. Since going gluten free, I feel like a completely different person. My mind is clearer, I have no stomach pain during the day, and even my nails improved within just two weeks. It could also be Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity, but of course I’ll need the biopsy to know for sure. I was wondering, has anyone else had negative blood tests at first and later tested positive? And has anyone struggled with the gluten challenge because of symptoms?

      Doterra is a life saver and yes I feel like im waiting because Im getting yes you are celiac, no your not celiac. Im so FRUSTRATED, exhausted and tired of explaining to medical why I feel this way.Im stressed because my body isn't feeling well.Yes I am and no it's not just a food allergy as downplayed with doctors Ive seen.I even went to the " celiac  specialist " Dr Fernandez-Becker who down played my ailments and stated im not and then yes I am I even had one her " care team" ask my why do you want that diagnosis. UNMMMMM. I don't want it, its been my life confirmed in 1994.Menopause intensified extra sensitivity and medical has down played my sibo, ibs, CELIAC, now im having skin and eye issues. I thought help was available but its been a complete medical disaster.
