So I love ice cream, and turkey hill ice cream is one of the best!! So I sent a letter to the people at Turkey Hill. OH MY GOSH...they sent me this whole long list of their gluten free products and then send me a whole bunch of free coupons just for showing an interest in their company. I love it when people know what i'm asking about and then go out of their way to make sure that your experience is the best. I highly recommend writing them and asking about the gluten-free stuff!!!

Well that's nice but I don't really have time to write, I'm sure you don't want to type the entire list of gluten free products but maybe you could list a few of them?

Hi Vincent,

Thank you for contacting Turkey Hill Dairy. We appreciate your

comments and interest in our products.

We understand that more and more consumers are being diagnosed

with Celiac Disease. Therefore, we work with our suppliers to

obtain gluten-free extracts and modified food starches. At this

time, all of our extracts are gluten-free. We also use corn and

tapioca modified food starches, both of which are also gluten-

free.

We have begun to list our allergens on our labels. Below the

ingredients, you will see a CONTAINS: statement. If the product

contains gluten, wheat will be listed. Wheat is the only

ingredient we use that contains gluten. Therefore, the ice

creams containing cake and cookie pieces will contain gluten.

All of our drink products are gluten-free.

Thanks for taking time to contact us. In appreciation, we will

be sending you a gluten-free list and coupons. We appreciate

your comments and thank you for choosing Turkey Hill.

Sincerely,

TURKEY HILL DAIRY

Almost all ice creams are like this now -- all you have to do is read the ingredients, and usually the only ones with gluten are the obvious ones, like Oreo.

Yea, with the exepction of PURITY DARIES everyone I have contacted has said the same. Purity refused to disclose that information when I asked them so I refuse to buy thier products, even though tey are probably just as safe....

      I realized it is actually important to get an official diagnosis because then insurance can cover bone density testing and other lab work to see if any further damage has been done because of it. Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have 4 kids, and I really want to know. If I really do have it then they may have increased risk.

      Been off this forum for years. Is it that important that you get an official diagnosis of something? It appears like you had a trigger (wheat, gluten, whatever) and removing it has resolved your symptom. I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free condition. I was diagnosed over 20 years ago and have been symptom free only excluding wheat, rye and barley. I tolerate all naturally gluten free whole foods including things like beans which actually helps to form the stools.

      No coincidence. Recent revisions to gluten challenge guidelines call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of 3 weeks. If possible, I would extend that two weeks to ensure valid testing.

      Thank you both for the replies. I decided to bring back gluten so I can do the blood test. Today is Day #2 of the Challenge. Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a coincidence, but the brain fog is back and I feel very tired.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/
