Safe Rice Milk

What rice milk is safe for gluten? My son has been having belly problems and I just read that Rice dream has barley. I've been using Shoprite brand. I wonder if he is getting gluten. I'm going to call Shoprite and ask but they are clueless about anything I ask. I was using Rice dream also on and off if it's on sale. I know his belly is reacting to something and I'm just trying to figure it out.

I don't have any problems with Whole Foods 365 Organic Rice Milk, Wild Oats brand Rice Milk or Lundberg's Drink Rice.

I know someone already posted Lundberg's ricemilk, but I just want to add that I LOVE THE TASTE OF IT! I go through 3 cartons a week! Is that bad? :rolleyes: hahah I don't care actually. I get the vanilla kind, but the original tastes good too.

Yep, Lundenberg farms rice milk is good. I find that I have to watch my intake though b.c it is high carb and it seems to make me hungrier sooner than other foods. Enjoy!

I can't seem to find any of these rice milks anywhere. I tried to find it online but i can't. I don't have a wholefoods near me. I have a health foods store but they only have Rice dream and Garden of Eden soy and rice.

Hi - This is my first time posting here and I'm wondering about this Rice Dream situation. What I found is that on the Rice Dream "Original" package, there is no barley, but on the "Enriched" brand there is -- and they have clearly stated the amount of gluten in the product on the packaging. I have assumed that the "Original" is okay to drink.

Am I wrong? I've been drinking this every day for quite a while now. Over the past week I've developed some kind of inflammation in my stomach, though, and am wondering if this could be part of the problem.

I've been gluten-free since 1997 and am working towards becoming dairy free as well.

Thanks.

Kathy

Kathy-

Go here to read their statement and see a gluten-free list: Open Original Shared Link They list no rice dream beverage as safe.

What about Westsoy rice milk? Is that safe? The company didn't get back to me yet. It's from Hanes I think.

Hi!

Have you ever tried the Blue Diamond brand almond milk. I too do not have access to some of the gluten free rice milks, but my grocery store carries the almond milk. The chocolate is really good you might want to try it.

Cheryl : :D

EdenSoy has a rice/soy blend that clearly states gluten-free. Claire

I get my chips at either Wild Oats, another local health food store or Kroger--ours has a 'natural' section with the chips. I thought Whole Foods has them too...pretty sure I bought some at one of the Whole Foods in Chicago. You'll really like them :)

      Mallorca Guide

      You already got some great recommendations. Just want to second that Mallorca (and Spain in general) is one of the best and easiest places for celiacs to travel. I have been to Mallorca multiple times and have never experienced any cross contaminations and there are SO many easy to buy options in regular supermarkets. Hope you have a wonderful trip.

      Severe severe mouth pain

      I agree. If someone has Barrett's Esophagus, at least here in the UK, as I understand it under normal circumstances a PPI needs to be taken long term (or similar medication). I have two friends with this. The PPI it does have side effects but they still have to take it.

      Do talk to your doctor about making changes to your medication. I'm not a medical doctor. I'm a microbiologist. I studied nutrition before switching to microbiology because I was curious what vitamins were doing inside the body. I would hate to give advice that jeopardizes your health, so do discuss things with your doctor.

      @Jmartes71, Sorry you've been feeling so poorly. Are you taking any medication to treat the SIBO? Are you taking any Benfotiamine? Benfotiamine will help get control of the SIBO. Thiamine deficiency has symptoms in common with MS. Have you had your gas appliances checked for gas leaks and exhaust fume leaks? Carbon Monoxide poisoning...

      Blood Test for Celiac wheat type matters?

      European wheat is often a "soft wheat" variety which contains less gluten than "hard wheat" varieties found in the States. In European countries, different cooking methods and longer fermentation (rising or proofing) times allow for further breakdown of gluten peptides. Wheat in the States is a blend of hard and soft wheat. Gluten content can...

Have you had your gas appliances checked for gas leaks and exhaust fume leaks?  Carbon Monoxide poisoning can cause the same symptoms as the flu and glutening.  Doctors have to check venous blood (not arterial) for carbon monoxide.  Are other inhabitants sick, or just you?  Do they leave the house and get fresh air which relieves their symptoms?

      European wheat is often a "soft wheat" variety which contains less gluten than "hard wheat" varieties found in the States.   In European countries, different cooking methods and longer  fermentation (rising or proofing) times allow for further breakdown of gluten peptides. Wheat in the States is a blend of hard and soft wheat.  Gluten content can vary according to where the wheat was grown, growing conditions, when harvested, and local preference, so a blend of both hard and soft wheat is used to make a uniform product.   I moved around quite a bit as a child in a military family.  I had different reactions to gluten in different areas of the country every time we moved.  I believe some wheat breeds and blends are able to provoke a worse immune response than others.   Since European soft wheat doesn't contain as much gluten as American wheat, you may try increasing your intake of your soft wheat products.  A minimum of ten grams of gluten is required to get a sufficient immunological response so that the anti-gluten antibodies leave the intestines and enter the bloodstream where they can be measured by the tTg IgA test.  Your whole wheat bread may only have a gram of gluten per slice, so be prepared...
