Mushroom Brand


LilyR

Recommended Posts

Anyone here react to some mushrooms, but not to others?  I was wondering if anyone knows of a safe brand of mushrooms (fresh or canned, preferably fresh) that you seem to do well with?  Or any store brands?  I have had mushrooms at times and been okay, but other times had some issues.  I don't know for certain it was the mushrooms. Maybe something else caused the problem, but it seems mushrooms are at least worth considering.  From now on I will write down the brand I use and then journal my reaction to them. But since I am getting over being glutened, I do not dare try any right now unless I find a recommended brand that people seem safe with. What a terrible shame that such a healthy food that is naturally gluten-free is often grown in gluten. :( I have heard that the mushrooms do not absorb the gluten while growing, but surely microscopic crumbs of gluten could easily get tucked into the under part of the mushroom?  I wish I had my grandfather teach me how to pick wild mushrooms before he passed away. Although that was only a seasonal thing he did so wouldn't help much the rest of the year.  Why do so many companies have to use gluten? I hate gluten!!!!!! It ruins everything.  (Sorry, having a bad day.)

I have been fine with Polar Canned mushrooms, we have 2 local farmers here...they told me they use various seeds sprayed with teh spores to grow. I think I did a post with the exact information a few years back but think they were using barley to grow the mushrooms from. Some even use compost with wheat to grow them in.

OH on polar...they are in a liquid in the can...if you have a nima, test a tiny bit of the mushroom with a few drops of the canned liquid if any CC is present then it will catch it. PERFECT. I found this one company that sells #10 5lb cans of mushrooms been debating this trick with a can of them and freezing it in portions.

      Hello everyone. I am Elena and am 38 years old. I suspect I have a gluten intolerance even if my celiac panel is ok. I have the following symptoms : facial flushing, Red dots not bumps în face, bloating abdominal distension, hair loss, depression anxiety even with meds and even bipolar. Fatigue extreme to the point of not being able to work. All of these after I eat gluten. Could I have non celiac gluten sensitivity? Thanks anyone else with these symptoms?

      Hi Everyone,  I do appreciate your replies to my original post.   Here is where I am now in this journey.  I am currently seeing a Naturopath.  One thing I did not post before is that I take Esomeprazole for GERD.  My Naturopath believes that the decrease in the gastric acid has allowed the yeast to grow.    She has put me on some digestive enzymes.  She also put me on Zinc, Selenium, B 12, as she felt that I was not absorbing my vitamins. I am about 5 weeks into this treatment, and I am feeling better. I did not have any trouble taking the Fluconazole.

      I'm sure it's chemically perfect. Most of them taste lousy!

      Hi @JulieRe.  I just found your post.  It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida.  I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment.  In the meantime, I have been working with a functional medicine doctor, doing a candida cleanse and taking vitamins. It's already helping to make me feel better (with some ups and downs, of course), so I do think the yeast is definitely a problem for me on top of my celiac disease and I'm hoping my GI doctor can look into this a bit further.  So, how about you?  Did the candida come back, or is it still gone following your fluconazole treatment?  Also, was it awful to take fluconazole?  I understand that taking an antifungal can cause a reaction that sometimes makes people feel sick while they're taking it.  I hope you're doing better still !

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct relief for the aches. For the digestive misery, stick to simple, easy-to-digest foods (like plain rice, bananas, and bone broth) and drink plenty of water and electrolytes to stay hydrated. It feels like the longest month ever, but you are doing the right thing to get a clear diagnosis, which can be crucial for your long-term health and getting the proper care. Hang in there; you can get through this! This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:
