Hi,

I was wondering if Health valley soups are gluten-free? I especially love their split pea soup.

Thanks,

Traci

This is from the Delphi List:

Health Valley Products -Wheat, oats, rye and barley will be listed on the label if they are present as an ingredient. They can’t guarantee against trace amounts because they also produce products containing those ingredients.

I use their broths. The split pea soup I like is by Amy's (often found in the same section of the store as HV) and it says right on the label GLUTEN FREE (ah, the words I love!)

I hope I'm posting correctly, this is my first time on this forum. The topic of Health Valley soups caught my eye. I have been on the gluten-free diet for about a year and a half now, but I'm starting to wonder if I'm doing it completely, so I'm on here trying to learn more. I have been eating the Health Valley Organic Vegetable Soup. There aren't any ingredients listed that should have gluten, and I've been able to eat it with no problems, so I thought I had a winner. But I ate it last night and was in the bathroom till 3 am with diarrhea. So I called the company today and the rep said that although there are no ingredients listed that should have gluten, it's not listed in their files as gluten-free because it's manufactured in a facility that also makes foods that contain gluten. So now I have to scratch that off my safe list.

I'm getting kind of discouraged. I saw the GI Dr. to find out why I'm still having a lot of symptoms, even though they are much better than before. I think it has to do with what I'm eating, but his first move was to put me on an anti-inflammatory medication. I'm pretty sure that it's related to what I'm eating and the medicine made me sick, so I'm not taking it. Besides, I want to find out what's causing the symptoms, not just mask them. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks a lot.

No... don't do that. Take your medication like a good boy or girl. Of course, ask your pharmacist if its Gluten Free. Medications, such as an anti-inflammitory don't mask problems, they help you heal. Healing is important. Medications heal.

Anyways. That aside. gluten-free can be hard or easy to do depending on what you eat. I just gave up for awhile and at mostly the same thing each night. Baked potatoe and chicken. I didn't start adding prepackaged for for quite some time. Its not much harder to make some "fresh" things than prepared soups or anything. I actually cook my lunch each night during making dinner. I just throw left overs in a bin and heat it up.

The Delphi List is 79 pages long and has foods and products. It's a great list. It does not have everything but it is quite extensive. In the product section celiac3270 posted about it a while ago and if you contact him he will send it to you. If you want to get to it yourself he gives instructions in that post.

      Celiac Disease causes more vitamin D deficiency than the general population because of limited UV sunlight in the winter and the little available from food is not absorbed well in the damaged small intestine.  Taking 10,000 IU a day (250 mcg) a day broke my depression. Taking it for eleven years.  Doctor recently said to not stop.  My 25(OH)D is around 200 nmol/L (80 ng/ml) but it took about six years to get there.  Increasing vitamin D also increases absorption of Calcium. A good start is 100-gram (3.5-ounce) serving of salmon,  vitamin D from 7.5 to 25 mcg (300 to 1,000 IU) but it is going to take additional vitamin D supplement to be effective.  More importantly salmon has an omega-6 to omega-3 ratio 1:10 anti-inflammatory compared to the 15:1 infammatory ratio of the typical Western diet.

      Thank you for sharing your thoughts.  I respectfully disagree.  You cherry picked a small section from the page.  I will do the same below: The agency is seeking information on adverse reactions due to “ingredients of interest” (i.e., non-wheat gluten containing grains (GCGs) which are rye and barley, and oats due to cross-contact with GCGs) and on labeling issues or concerns with identifying these “ingredients of interest” on packaged food products in the U.S. “People with celiac disease or gluten sensitives have had to tiptoe around food, and are often forced to guess about their food options,” said FDA Commissioner Marty Makary, M.D., M.P.H. “We encourage all stakeholders to share their experiences and data to help us develop policies that will better protect Americans and support healthy food choices.” --- end quote Anyone with celiac disease is clearly a stakeholder.  The FDA is encouraging us to share our experiences along with any data to help develop future "policies that will better protect Americans and support healthy food choices".  I see this as our chance to speak up or forever hold our peace.  Like those that do not participate in elections, they are not allowed to complain.  The way I see it, if we do not participate in this request for public comment/feedback, then we should also not complain when we get ill from something labeled gluten-free. Have a blessed day ahead, Known1

      Here is a link to the spreadsheet I kept to track my nutrition intakes.  Maybe it will give you ideas. It is not https so browsers may flag a security warning. There is nothing to send or receive. http://doodlesnotes.net/index3.html I tracked everything I ate, used the National Nutrition Database https://www.foodrisk.org/resources/display/41 to add up my daily intake and supplemented appropriately.  It tracks about 30 nutrients at once.

      Hello @catnapt, That's so true.  Every person with Celiac Disease has different symptoms.  There are over 200 that it mimics.  Too many still believe that it is only a childhood disease you outgrow.  Or it's psychosomatic or simply a fad.  Idiots.  It's easy to get angry at all of them.   You just have to pick at the answers until you find the ones that work for you.  I too suffer from not being able to take the drugs that work for "everyone else".  SSRIs make me twitch ane feel like toothpicks are holding my eye open, ARBs cripple me.  Statins cause me intestinal Psuedo Obstruction.  Espresso puts me to sleep.  I counted 19 different symptoms that improved from GFD and dealing with my nutritional defecits.  I couldn't breath through my mouth until I started GFD at 64 years old.   My son was born with celiac disease, biopsy diagnosed at weaning.   So why are we the one-percenters.  Why, after being silent for so long, does it suddenly flare? There is the possibility that you have both Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity.  NCGS was not established as a diagnosis until 1980.  NCGS is diagnost by first elimating Celiac Disease as the cause, and showing improvement on GFD.  Nothing says you can't have symptoms from both.  Wheatbelly: Total Nutrition by Dr. Davis was helpful to me. We come to the forum to share what we've learned in dealing with our own symptoms.  Maybe this will help someone. Speaking of which if you don't mind; what is your 25(OH)D vitamin D blood level?  You mentioned a mysterious Calcium issue. Vitamin D, Calcium and Iodine are closely interactive. It is not uncommon for postmenopausal women to have insufficient intake of Iodine.   (RDA): Average daily level of intake sufficient to meet the nutrient requirements of nearly all (97%–98%) healthy individuals; often used to plan nutritionally adequate diets for individuals You are a one-percenter.  You may need higher intake of some essential nutrient supplements to speed up repairing the damages.
