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.

      Oh, okay. The lower case "b" in boots in your first post didn't lead me in the direction of a proper name. I thought maybe it was a specialty apothecary for people with pedal diseases or something.

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! There are other things that may cause elevated tTg-IgA levels, but in general a reaction to gluten is the culprit:

      Hi @trents Just seen this - Boot's is a chain of pharmacies in the UK, originally founded in the 19th Century by a chap with the surname, Boot.  It's a household name here in the UK and if you say you are going to Boot's everyone knows you are off to the pharmacist! Cristiana

      Nacina, Knitty Kitty has given you good advice. But I would say/add find a Fat Soluble B-1 like Benfotiamine for best results.  The kind found in most Multivitamins have a very low absorption rate. This article shows how taking a Fat Soluble B-1 can effectively help absorption by 6x to7x times. https://www.naturalmedicinejournal.com/journal/thiamine-deficiency-and-diabetic-polyneuropathy quoting from the article.... "The group ingesting benfotiamine had maximum plasma thiamine levels that were 6.7 times higher than the group ingesting thiamine mononitrate.32" Also, frequency is much more important than amount when it comes to B-Vitamin. These are best taken with meals because they provide the fat for better absorption. You will know your B-Vitamin is working properly when your urine becomes bright yellow all the time. This may take two or three months to achieve this.......maybe even longer depending on how low he/you are. The Yellow color is from excess Riboflavin bypassing the Kidneys....... Don't stop them until when 2x a day with meals they start producing a bright yellow urine with in 2 or 3 hours after the ingesting the B-Complex...... You will be able to see the color of your urine change as the hours go by and bounce back up after you take them in the evening. When this happens quickly......you are now bypassing all the Riboflavin that is in the supplement. The body won't absorb more than it needs! This can be taken as a "proxy" for your other B-Vitamin levels (if taken a B-Complex) ...... at least at a quick and dirty level......this will only be so for the B-1 Thiamine levels if you are taking the Fat Soluble forms with the Magnesium as Knitty Kitty mentioned. Magnesium is a Co-Factor is a Co-factor for both Thiamine and Vitamin D and your sons levels won't improve unless he also takes Magnesium with his Thiamine and B-Complex. You will notice his energy levels really pick up.  His sleeping will improve and his muscle cramps will get better from the Magnesium! Here is nice blog post that can help you Thiamine and it's many benefits. I hope this is helpful but it is not medical advice God speed on your son's continued journey I used to be him. There is hope! 2 Tim 2:7 “Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things” this included. Posterboy by the grace of God,
