I just bought spices by a company called Simply Organic just wanted to know if they were safe to eat before I tried it...anyone know?

also was thinking about making Chili so wondering what types of spices I can use?

Ha Ha one more sorry the questions are just rolling off the top of my head, how about ranch dressing what brands are safe?

Have a great day!

:D

Pure spices are gluten-free. :D

You do have to watch for anything that is not a 100% pure single ingredient. Seasoning mixes bear close watch, as do things commonly thought of as "a spice" which are actually a blend of ingredients. Paprika may be a blend, and sometimes contains wheat flour. Curry powder is also a blend, and may also contain flour. Chili powder could also contain flour. <_<

Some imitation pepper is made from wheat germ, but if you stick to real, pure pepper, it is always gluten-free. :D

As an added thought, there is one thing to watch for on any food label, which indicates that you need to look carefully. That is words like:

"Made with 100% pure corn oil"

All that means is that the corn oil, which is one of the ingredients, was 100% pure. "Made from" is similar in meaning.

Kraft dressings won't hide anything...so if their label does not have wheat,rye,barley,oats then they will be safe. Do you have a list of the brands that won't hide anything?

Newman's Own has some gluten free dressings and so does Drews.

janelson--

i know those products--they are manufacturered by frontier, the coop i've joined. if you got pure spices they should be okay. i have some. the company won't tell you if there products are gluten-free or not. however, if you have their catalog they list the ingredients in all their products--in case you got a spice mix or something like that. if you did i could possibly check for you. mccormicks i use alot for spices. good chili spices to use would be: chili pepper, black pepper, cumin, salt, possibly onion/garlic powder. some like to sneak in some cocoa powder or sugar too.

ck the label...but you should be able to use a kraft ranch.

      Hi Everyone,  I do appreciate your replies to my original post.   Here is where I am now in this journey.  I am currently seeing a Naturopath.  One thing I did not post before is that I take Esomeprazole for GERD.  My Naturopath believes that the decrease in the gastric acid has allowed the yeast to grow.    She has put me on some digestive enzymes.  She also put me on Zinc, Selenium, B 12, as she felt that I was not absorbing my vitamins. I am about 5 weeks into this treatment, and I am feeling better. I did not have any trouble taking the Fluconazole.

      I'm sure it's chemically perfect. Most of them taste lousy!

      Hi @JulieRe.  I just found your post.  It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida.  I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment.  In the meantime, I have been working with a functional medicine doctor, doing a candida cleanse and taking vitamins. It's already helping to make me feel better (with some ups and downs, of course), so I do think the yeast is definitely a problem for me on top of my celiac disease and I'm hoping my GI doctor can look into this a bit further.  So, how about you?  Did the candida come back, or is it still gone following your fluconazole treatment?  Also, was it awful to take fluconazole?  I understand that taking an antifungal can cause a reaction that sometimes makes people feel sick while they're taking it.  I hope you're doing better still !

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct relief for the aches. For the digestive misery, stick to simple, easy-to-digest foods (like plain rice, bananas, and bone broth) and drink plenty of water and electrolytes to stay hydrated. It feels like the longest month ever, but you are doing the right thing to get a clear diagnosis, which can be crucial for your long-term health and getting the proper care. Hang in there; you can get through this! This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:

      Daura Damm (a sponsor here) uses AN-PEP enzymes and filtering in their brewing process to reduce/remove gluten, and it actually tests below 10ppm (I've see a document where they claim 5ppm).
