What brand of psyllium husk do you use for baking?

I had been using Anthony's Goods brand previously, but they seem to have discontinued carrying it. I am struggling to find a replacement brand that is safe for celiac - not at risk for cross contamination.

I know nuts.com has it, but I have had issues with even their certified gluten-free items so I'm hesitant to try.

Bob's Red Mill also makes it, but they seem to have a mixed reputation amongst celiacs for risk of CC, so I'm also hesitant to try that.

All of the brands I could find on Amazon have reviews from celiac customers that they got sick from CC.

There's a Canadian brand Pure-Le Natural that I've seen recommended a few times, but they don't ship to the US /:

If you bake, what brand psyllium do you use? Even if you use one of the above that I'm hesitant about - if folks here use it without issue then I'd be willing to give it a try.

Thank you!

You are correct about being careful with psyllium. I ordered some psyllium powder from Amazon that did NOT say "gluten-free" on its label but also did not say that it may contain wheat, and it tested positive for gluten with a Nima sensor. I gave it away.

Technically speaking, if it has "gluten-free" on the label it should be safe and below 20ppm, but if you are super sensitive that may not be enough, and you may need "certified gluten-free" if they make one.

You likely saw the same ones I did on Amazon, for example this says gluten-free, but the real issue is that most of it comes from India where there is still very little awareness of celiac disease:

      In addition to cutting out oats, you may want to investigate any medications or supplements you're taking - they can sometimes contain gluten.  You can check medication ingredients online at sites like DailyMed (www.dailymed.nlm.nih.gov).

      I think the best you will be able to do is to find out if gluten, or at least wheat, barley or rye is an intentional ingredient in a smoke product and only the manufacturer can answer that question. Since smokes are regulated by the AFT and not the FDA, allergens are not required to be declared in the labeling.

      yes i understand that pectin is gluten free ty.  i want to know if any cigars are gluten free its a simple question

      Welcome to the forum, @brian weinstein! Gluten is a protein found in wheat barley and rye kernels. Pectin is a polysaccharide (a very complex sugar) found in the cell walls of fruits and vegetables. It is most commonly used as a thickening agent in food products, particularly jellies. So, pectin is naturally gluten free. That is not to the same as saying the cigar is gluten free.  Personally, I am reluctant to text you. I think most of us would feel the same way. Too many people already have access to our cell phone numbers.
