Glutino Crackers

After having reactions after eating different products that claim to be gluten free, I've now started calling just about any 'manufactured' food I buy. (At first I thought any grain product was causing me to react... now I'm hoping it's just cross-contamination).

 

Just called Glutino about their crackers. Their crackers are made on lines that use gluten products, so there is a risk of cross-contamination. Supposedly under 10 parts per.... (still don't have the lingo down).

 

Apparently their breakfast bars and english muffins are okay though!

I don't think that they make any gluten products.

That's a dedicated facility.

Not according to the woman I spoke to at the Glutino plant.  She stated that it was not a dedicated facility but the lines were cleaned.  Call them.  1 201 421 3970.

 

She stated the crackers were not on dedicated lines, but breakfast bars and english muffins were made in another facility which was fully gluten free.

 

To tell you the truth, with a name like "Glutino," I was shocked to hear the crackers weren't on dedicated lines.

I just looked at their website.

 

every product carries a gluten-free label..

 

By dedicated lines, did she mean "nuts or seeds or some other allergen?"

 

What products are NOT  g F??

I looked on Glutinos website and could find no information about dedicated anything...just a short statement that they do their best to prevent contamination... I wrote them to ask.  Will post my reply when I get it.

Please do. 

 

I asked a fellow celiac (who is also Canadian) what he knows about the Glutino company and he replied:

 

 

Some Glutino product production is outsourced, but it is my understanding that all are produced in dedicated gluten-free facilities. IIRC, the pretzels are made in Israel.

 

The bakery in Laval (N of Montreal) is a dedicated gluten-free facility.

Here's the reply I got from Glutino when I asked about whether their crackers were made on a dedicated line.

If I understand correctly, their crackers are not included as something that is made on a dedicated line. (Unlike many of their other products...this fits with what the woman on the phone told me as well). 

 

I don't know how I feel about it, as I've been accidentally glutened by products that are made on non-dedicated lines.... But perhaps they are safer about it than other places.

That's about as good as it gets for those of us who require a gluten free diet.

So does their final product test down to 5 PPM or less or 10 PPM or less?

I just got the same reply in my email.  Sounds a bit like they are skirting around the direct question I asked.  I'm not a big fan of their products anyways, so it goes into the knowledge file in my head.

Kind of wierd. I got the same reply. I then asked about the crackers and explained they weren't mentioned. I am thinking its just a mistake. but we will see. I really like the bagel chips and have no problem with them. One of my kids & I like the plain round ones with PB.

Yes, yes they are.  I can't buy them anymore because I lose control and eat the whole thing!

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      My only proof

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      Are Lindt chocolate balls gluten free?

      By RUKen · Posted

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.
