Problems with Kinnikinnick


Dreamcherub

Recommended Posts

Hi guys, so I don't know about anyone else, but I have a lot of problems with the brand Kinnikinnick. I've never heard of other people having a problem with it, but for whatever reason, I can't eat it-which sucks because they're the only brand i know that makes graham crackers)

So, I've tried Kinnikinnick on five seperate occasions, all different products. I've had their bread, their cinnamon sugar donuts, animal crackers, graham crackers and their vanilla cake. Each time I tried the product (whether to see if i might still have the same reaction or I wasn't paying enough attention to the box to tell it was the same brand) I would get a foggy mind, upset stomach, bone cramping, my heart would race, i felt terrible and my panic attacks sparked like mad, causing me to go into a frantic state of feeling sick and completely emotional and upset. It is literally one of the worst feelings ever. I don't have any other intolerances other than lactose and it has never given me a reaction like what I just described. So, i was wondering if anyone else had similar experiences with the brand or if there's something else I should be looking out for.

Never had a problem with that brand.

are you able to eat other brands of cake, donuts, etc?  maybe it's the gums or some other ingredient that is common to them all?

Kinnikinnick uses pea starch in the flour blend and other products.  The company has said in the past that it is completely gluten free and doesn't even allow employees to bring gluten foods into the workplace.

Keep a food journal to help track down any other food intolerances you might have.

      Welcome to the forum! Do you mean this article, and if so, I don't think these are available yet.

      First of all, I want to wish you the very best of luck with your procedure today. It's completely understandable to feel a mix of apprehension and hope. Your proactiveness in researching and advocating for that endoscopy was incredibly smart; securing that formal diagnosis is crucial for both insurance and long-term health management. While it's natural to worry that those five gluten-free days could affect the results, your logic is spot-on—it's highly unlikely your intestines healed completely in that short time, and the fact that your joint pain and stomach issues have flared back up aggressively after reintroducing gluten is a very strong, and unfortunate, sign that the inflammation is indeed present and active. It's also very common for people to look back and connect dots, like your lifelong migraines, once a potential celiac diagnosis is on the table, as it's a systemic condition with many non-gastrointestinal symptoms. I truly hope this scope provides the clear answers you need to finally start on the right path to managing your health and finding lasting relief from the fatigue and pain. Safe travels for your drive, and here's hoping for a definitive answer and a brighter, healthier chapter ahead.

      I just recently saw something on this.  Has anyone tried test strips?  Which brand is better?  Not sure how they really work and if they really do work.  Thank you, Nancy (aka Borky)

      Surge of information on benefits of vitamin D McCarthy has been employing these methods since February 2007, and patient acceptance has been high. He said he checks each patient’s 25(OH)D level and supplements to reach a target of 80 ng/mL in adults and children. Of the first 1,500 patients McCarthy tested, 40% began with vitamin D levels less than 20 ng/mL and 70% less than 35 ng/mL. Only 1% initially had values within his target range. According to McCarthy, his target range is based upon several factors: A lifeguard study that found vitamin D levels in the 70 ng/mL range up to 100 ng/mL (nature’s level) were associated with no adverse effects; Data in patients with breast cancer showing a reduction in the incidence of new cancer with postulated 0 point at 80 ng/mL; Colon cancer data showing a reduction in the incidence of new cancer (linear) with postulated 0 point at 75 ng/mL; More than 200 polymorphisms of the vitamin D receptor requiring higher D levels to attain same desired outcomes;
