Sugar and Mayo?

[pdm1981]

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!
