Hello, I am day two of the diet. I love this salad dressing...it is a japanese ginger dressing. It mentions soy sauce as the fourth ingrediant in it. How bad could this effect me? Does anyone have a good ginger dressing w/o soy sauce?

Hi and welcome in! Although there are gluten-free soy sauces available, consuming regular soy sauce will prevent you from healing, possibly cause further damage and cause you to have symptoms. The goal is to be 100% gluten-free. That means food, condiments, spices, soap, shampoo, lotions--anything that you eat or use on your body. Just a tiny bit will cause the immune reaction, and even if you don't get sick, the damage is still happening. The diet can be a bit difficult at the beginning, so take it one day at a time and give your system a chance to heal. Come here for advice any time. If someone dosen't post with a dressing recipe, you can always do a search. There are a lot of good recipes to be found here.

I feel your pain. This was the only salad dressing I liked. This was after years of searching for the perfect ginger dressing. I used to eat this stuff on everything. It was probably the thing I mourned not being able to have anymore more than anything else. But like Patti said, it's off limits. This is an all or nothing lifestyle. You can't pick and choose to occassionally have something that might contain some gluten. Sorry. I know just how bummed you are.

After seeing the post about Makato I decided to write them an e-mail to see if they would consider producing a version of this dressing with wheat free soy sauce. I am very pleased with the response I got. If you to are interested in this product as well, may I suggest you send an e-mail.

Thank you for your suggestion about using a wheat free soy sauce. I have forwarded this information to our product development department.

I have also taken the time to go to the website www.celiac.com and have found this to be a very interesting website and possible information tool should we develop a wheat free version of our dressing.

Customer feedback is very important to us and we appreciate the time you took to write us with the information you provided.

Sincerely,

      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:

      Daura Damm (a sponsor here) uses AN-PEP enzymes and filtering in their brewing process to reduce/remove gluten, and it actually tests below 10ppm (I've see a document where they claim 5ppm).

      This topic has come up before on this forum and has been researched. No GMO wheat, barley and rye are commercially available in the USA. Any modifications are from hybridization, not laboratory genetic modification. Better toleration of wheat, barley and rye products in other countries is thought to be due to use of heirloom varieties of these cereal grains as opposed to the hybrids used in the USA which contain much larger amounts of gluten.
