I wouldn't use it! Wheat protein is the part we react to.

Um, is it a "Spice" packet or a "Seasoning" packet? If it is labeled as "spice," but contains wheat, the label is wrong and should be reported to the FDA (US) or CFIA (Canada).

It is just a stew spice pack, but I read somewhere that the McKormick stew pack that says hydrolyzed wheat protein in it is so processed that it is safe for celiacs...This is not that brand but was just curious...I made her something else for dinner anyway but is there any stew spice packs out there that are safe???

I've read that too BUT the gluten tests don't work well on hydrolyzed protein. It's hard to know what's really there or the agenda of the person who did the testing. My rule is if it came from wheat, rye, or barley in any way, shape, or form I skip it.

I've used an Italian seasoning mix or Herbs de Provence, fresh garlic, and fresh onions for stew. Splash of wine if I have a bottle open. I like to thicken stews with arrowroot starch.

Wheat, anything that says wheat, is a BIG no-no here.

      I'm sorry to hear about what you're going through. It must be really frustrating and uncomfortable. Have you talked to your healthcare provider about these sudden sweating episodes? It might be helpful to discuss this with them to rule out any other underlying issues or to see if there are specific strategies or treatments that can help manage this symptom. Additionally, staying hydrated and wearing breathable clothing may provide some relief.

      I am not sure where you are going, but we have articles in this section which may be helpful: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-travel/

      There are supplements available that can help breakdown minor amounts of gluten such as you might experience with cross contamination when dining out and you order gluten free items from a menu. But they will not help when larger amounts of gluten are consumed. One such product that many on this forum attest to as having helped them in this regard is GliadinX. The inventor of GlidinX is one our forum sponsors so you should know that.

      There is such a thing, believe it or not, called gluten withdrawal. Gluten has addictive properties similar to opiates. I know it sounds bizarre but research it. Also, are you compensating for the loss of vitamins and minerals you were getting from the FDA mandated fortified wheat flour products you were formerly consuming?
