Hi,

 

I am interested in buying nonGMO and gluten-free nuts and found this site. I am wondering if others have ever purchased products from it.

Thanks!

Looks good for gluten free, even has certifications. My issue is they all come from a peanut facility.

While on this topic anyone know where I can get reasonably priced, cashews, pistachios, macadamia nuts etc. that are Gluten, peanut, soy, and dairy free? I always find ones made in the same facility as or over $9 a lb.  Pretty much why I have been sticking to almonds, coconut, pecans and seeds -_- . I miss the others honestly.

I have some nuts.com bags in my freezer now!  Yes, I use them.  Gives me piece of mind for sure.  I do purchase other nuts from Costco, but not the ones labeled that they are produced in a shared facility with wheat.   I also take the time to contact nut companies and inquire about how they process their nuts.  Usually, those companies just process the just-harvested nut and do not manufacture any flavored nuts.  

I like ordering and shipping nuts.com orders to my parent's house in Georgia.  Reduces the amount of time for shopping and doing gluten research while on vacation.  

Do not forget that this is nut season.  I buy bulk, on sale from the grocery store (in the shell) and freeze them too.  Wash and crack them open.  No worries about cross contamination.  Kind of slows down nut consumption for those in my family who tend to over eat!

I and many others do Nuts.com. Great company! Try their goji squares, you'll swallow your tongue.

Ennis, I have no answer on cashews and since pistachios always come with the shell split, I have no answer on those either HOWEVER, Nuts.com has macadamia nuts in the shell so you could get those & you could even wash them off before cracking them open so you made sure to eliminate any peanut residue on the shell. I must warn you though that the suckers are very difficult to crack. You can't do it with a nutcracker. Here are some methods:

As for me, I throw the nut on a hard surface to get the inside loose, you can shake it near your ear & listen for the rattle. Then I go to the joint seam in the concrete driveway, place the nut in the joint with the "navel" up & whack it with a hammer.

gluten-free Nuts

Are you saying you are one or we are?  Sorry had to ask. :)

I agree with Nuts.com.  I've ordered from them and had no problems.  They tend to put cryptic messages on their packaging though so it may be while before you can get to opening it.

Where do you get your coconut? I've been trying to find safe unsweetened coconut and haven't been able to find anything other than products from questionable sources. Thanks!

Unsweetened coconut flakes, toasted pieces, and de fatted flakes I use Let's go Organic from where ever is cheaper at the time, normally nab it on sale at my local grocers. For flour I stick to Nutivia Organic coconut flour as I normal find it on health sites for under $10 for 3lbs and tend to add it to everything for a thickening agent, cooking flour, fat/fiber source in shakes and icecream, etc.

@Ennis_TX - Thanks! I'll keep an eye out for these and give them a try.

I'm very sensitive and I've never had an issue with the Wonderful Pistachio brand.  They go on sale at the supermarket often and there are usually coupons available in the newspaper

      What are Celiac Disease Symptoms?

      In addition to gastrointestinal symptoms like diarrhea, I had gastroesophageal reflux that was becoming intolerable despite treatment with PPIs and antacids. When I went gluten-free, the GERD lessened tremendously (as did the other symptoms).

      Help I’m cross contaminating myself,

      Thank you so very much Scott. Just having someone understand my situation is so very helpful. If I have one more family member ask me how my little itchy skin thing is going and can't you just take a pill and it will go away and just a little bit of gluten can't hurt you!!!! I think I will scream!!

      It is difficult to do the detective work of tracking down hidden sources of cross-contamination. The scenarios you described—the kiss, the dish towel, the toaster, the grandbaby's fingers—are all classic ways those with dermatitis herpetiformis might get glutened, and it's a brutal learning curve that the medical world rarely prepares you for.

      It's very frustrating to be dismissed by medical professionals, especially when you are the one living with the reality of your condition every day. Having to be your own advocate and "fight" for a doctor who will listen is an exhausting burden that no one should have to carry.

      Help I’m cross contaminating myself,

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      @klmgarland, My dermatitis herpetiformis didn't clear up until I became meticulous about cross contamination. I cut out gluten-free oats and all gluten-free foods, dairy and gluten-free rice. Additionally, getting the right amount of protein for my body weight helped significantly in my body's healing process ... along with supplementing with enough of all the vitamins and minerals ... especially Zinc and Magnesium. I went from 70kg to 82kg in a year. Protein with each meal 3 times daily, especially eggs at breakfast made the difference. I'm not sure whether iodine was a problem for me, but I can tolerate iodine no problem now. I'm off Dapsone and feel great. Not a sign of an itch. So there is hope. I'm not advocating for the use of Dapsone, but it can bring a huge amount of relief despite it's effect on red blood cells. The itch is so distracting and debilitating. I tried many times to get off it, it wasn't until I implemented the changes above and was consistent that I got off it. Dermatitis Herpetiformis is horrible, I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

      It is difficult to do the detective work of tracking down hidden sources of cross-contamination. The scenarios you described—the kiss, the dish towel, the toaster, the grandbaby's fingers—are all classic ways those with dermatitis herpetiformis might get glutened, and it's a brutal learning curve that the medical world rarely prepares you for. It is difficult to have to deal with such hyper-vigilance. The fact that you have made your entire home environment, from makeup to cleaners, gluten-free is a big achievement, but it's clear the external world and shared spaces remain a minefield. Considering Dapsone is a logical and often necessary step for many with DH to break the cycle of itching and allow the skin to heal while you continue your detective work; it is a powerful tool to give you back your quality of life and sleep. You are not failing; you are fighting an incredibly steep battle. For a more specific direction, connecting with a dedicated celiac support group (online or locally) can be invaluable, as members exchange the most current, real-world tips for avoiding cross-contamination that you simply won't find in a pamphlet. You have already done the hardest part by getting a correct diagnosis. Now, the community can help you navigate the rest. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:

Having to be your own advocate and "fight" for a doctor who will listen is an exhausting burden that no one should have to carry. While that 1998 brochure is a crucial piece of your personal history, it's infuriating that the medical system often requires more contemporary, formal documentation to take a condition seriously. It's a common and deeply unfair situation for those who were diagnosed decades ago, before current record-keeping and testing were standard. You are not alone in this struggle.

      Methylprednisone treatment for inflammation?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Methylprednisolone is sometimes prescribed for significant inflammation of the stomach and intestines, particularly for conditions like Crohn's disease, certain types of severe colitis, or autoimmune-related gastrointestinal inflammation. As a corticosteroid, it works by powerfully and quickly suppressing the immune system's inflammatory response. For many people, it can be very effective at reducing inflammation and providing rapid relief from symptoms like pain, diarrhea, and bleeding, often serving as a short-term "rescue" treatment to bring a severe flare under control. However, experiences can vary, and its effectiveness depends heavily on the specific cause of the inflammation. It's also important to be aware that while it can work well, it comes with potential side effects, especially with longer-term use, so it's typically used for the shortest duration possible under close medical supervision. It's always best to discuss the potential benefits and risks specific to your situation with your gastroenterologist.
