Anyone Have Trouble With Amy's Tofu Scrambler?

I ate this yesterday first thing in the am and shortly after felt the signs of being glutened. Today I still feel yucky! My only other possiblity could this be a reaction to the soy? I drink soy milk every once in a while with out a problem. Just curious! This is the first time since being gluten-free that I have felt this bad!

Ooh sorry you got sick - I know people have been glutened by Amy's.

This is just a random observation - I've noticed that a large majority of the time, when people talk about getting glutened by a pre-packaged gluten-free item, that item almost always contains soy. Maybe that's just a coincidence. I notice for example, that people have problems with Van's Waffles. Well there's soy flour in Van's Waffles. Soy in the form of flour always, without a doubt, makes me feel "glutened". Maybe that's just me though.

Hmmm - Sorry that doesn't help you much, but I do think it could have been the soy. Hope you feel better. :)

Random Observation #2:

Everytime someone on this board says, "Have you ever gotten sick by...." If I've eaten that food, then a huge YES has always welled up inside of me. Bob's Hot & Tasty Cereal, Van's Waffles, Amy's Tofu Scramble, those are just a few. I've wondered if if was cross-contamination or the soy causing a similar reaction. I think I've read that soy is similar enough in its protein structure that it may cause a similar reaction. I know that I can't drink Soy Milk, but sometimes soy ingredients don't seem to bother me.

Yes, Becky, I've had a reaction to Amy's Tofu Scramble. Like Mango I've wondered. I dunno :unsure:

      Thank you so much for your response! I have a follow-up appointment with her pediatrician next week, and also an appointment with her pediatric GI Dr. Your message gives me some ideas for questions to ask the doctors. My daughter went strictly gluten-free in January following her first endoscopy so I’m guessing her diet is pretty solid. She is compliant but also reliant on others to make her food (at school and home) but she didn’t have this problem prior to the gluten challenge when she went strictly gluten-free. It really makes sense to me that the gluten challenge inflammation hasn’t healed and I will be asking her doctors about nutritional issues. I ask for anecdotal stories because the research surrounding the gluten challenge seems to be inconsistent and inconclusive (at least what I’ve been able to find!). Thank you so much for your response!

      While the positive endoscopy confirms the diagnosis, it's important to be skeptical of the idea that your daughter will simply "bounce back" to a pre-challenge state. The gluten challenge was essentially a controlled, prolonged exposure that likely caused significant inflammation and damage to her system; it's not surprising that recovery is slow and that a subsequent exposure hit her so hard. The persistent fatigue is a major red flag that her body is still struggling, potentially indicating that the initial damage hasn't fully healed or that her system is now in a heightened state of reactivity. Rather than seeking anecdotal timelines from others, her experience underscores the critical need for close follow-up with her gastroenterologist to rule out other nutrient deficiencies commonly caused by celiac flare-ups, like iron or B12, and to consult with a dietitian to scrutinize her diet for any hidden sources of cross-contamination that could be perpetuating her symptoms. The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs.

Brain fog, like other celiac disease symptoms, does improve after you to 100% gluten-free, and supplementation will also help.

      Were you doing any of the new home construction yourself? Drywall compounds and adhesives used in construction have been known to cause problems for some celiacs.

      Hello @Scatterbrain and welcome to the forum I am sorry to hear you have had a return of your symptoms.  My first thoughts were that stress can cause IBS-like symptoms - a friend of mine has been suffering a huge amount of stress and when that happens she gets diarrhea.  But you say that you haven't got any bad abdominal issues, so perhaps you could share what other symptoms you are having?
