Sugar and Mayo?

I've given up on all those processed gluten free foods out there and have stuck to eating a whole foods diet. I have noticed such a huge, massive, difference in my energy, mood, sleep, and well being. Needless to say I've been doing a lot of cooking but have been leaving sugar out because I don't know the safe brands. I tried using Stevia in the raw but keep getting horrible headaches when I use it. I saw that the first ingredient is Dextrose so it's not "raw". Anyway, what are the safe brands out there as far as white and brown sugars go? I made saurkraut and pork chops last night and would've loved potato salad. Also while I'm on here, what about Mayo? What's safe? I saw Sir Kennsington was gluten-free Certified.

I use Pyure brand stevia, and have no problems with it.

Kroger store brand sugar seems fine too.

I use any sugar.  Never found one to be " unsafe".

I use Swirve Sweetener, Pyure , Xlear brand Xylitol, and for a mayo sub I use Walden Farms, There was a avocado oil based one I use sometimes forgot the name.  >.> I can not have sugars due to UC. But I might suggest using Big Tree Coconut Sugar for a deep rich low glycemic sugar. I still use them in my bakery.

I will admit some stuff with dextrose, etc. bothers me....funny how it is only some brands and not others. Yet they can both be gluten-free, I think it might have something to do with the processing method and me reacting to something else in it.

Sugars are all gluten-free. You may have a reaction to a particular sugar (fructose is common), but it is not because of gluten.

Mayonnaise is gluten- free to start,  but flavors that contain gluten could be added. Not very likely,  but conceivable. I wouldn't worry about mayo.

Best Foods or Hellman's on the East Oast is Gluten free.  You can make your own too!  Easy!

      Since I've been a member of this forum,  I've seen some people write that they have not been able to tolerate corn, and others nightshades - tomatoes, potatoes, eggplant, and peppers (including bell peppers, chili peppers, and paprika).    However, intolerances can be short term, just while you are healing.    So bear this in mind if you start dropping certain foods from your diet - you may well be able to eat them again once you are healed.

      Welcome to the forum, @Izelle! Normally, the diagnosis of celiac disease involves two stages.  The first stage involves a simple blood test that looks for antibodies that are pretty specific to celiac disease. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that attacks the lining of the small bowel which produces antibodies that can be detected in the blood with tests specifically designed for this purpose. There are a number of these tests that can be run. Some are more specific for celiac disease and thus more reliable than others. The two most common antibody tests ordered by physicians when diagnosing celiac disease are the "total IGA" and the "tTG-IGA" test. At least these two should always be ordered. Here is a an article outlining the subject matter of celiac antibody tests:  If the tTG-IGA levels are 10x normal then it is becoming common practice in some countries to grant a celiac diagnosis on the bloodwork alone. The second stage involves an endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining to look for the damage to the small bowel lining typically caused by celiac disease's inflammatory process over time. This is usually done in response to one or more positives from the blood antibody testing and constitutes confirmation of the antibody testing to eliminate the possibility of false positives.

      Hi there, Please can you tell me exactly how this disease is diagnosed? I am also from South Africa Regards Izelle

      Thank you for saying that. That doctor diagnosed me with IBS with no follow-up so the relationship is already concluded. If I pursue diagnosis further I'll request someone else.
