Anyone know of any gluten free/soy free dark chocolate? Im not a big fan of chocolate, but every once in a while it would be nice- but every chocolate seems to have soy or soy lechtin.

Do you react to soy lecithin? I'm intolerant to soy, but can handle the lecithin. The Food Allergy and Anaphylactic Network (FAAN) says that the soy lecithin isn't usually problematic for people who are sensitive to soy.

I like Dagoba Chocolate. They have one variety that doesn't have soy lecithin added.

Here's the link,

I get them through our buying club when they're on special but I've seen them in health food stores as well. The Conacado bar is so rich I usually split one with my dh! :D

I buy my husband the Green & Black's Organic Chocolate. The package says Dark 70% and another type is Green & Black's Organic Maya Gold. Both are gluten free, dairy free, soy free, and nut free and they can be purchased at Wal-Mart on the candy isle with the other candy. The web site is www.greenandblacks.com and they list all of the food allergy info, so you can verify there if you have any other allergies. They are kind of pricey about 4.00 per bar but my husband just eats a few pieces at a time to kill the chocolate craving.

Funny you ask I'm nibbling on a bar right now.

ALPROSE SWISS DARK CHOCOLATE

Greyish label with gold and white lettering. It is Koser. You can buy it in the Koser isle of WALMART. I haven't found it anywhere else.

They also make another with Hazelnut filling that is also wonderful. It tastes great, I think better then when I ate [milk] chocolate. If you would like me to list the ingredients just ask I will be glad to post them here for you.

This is a SOY FREE product. I am a believer SOY is poison, and this is free of it.

Enjoy!

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      Brown Rice Vinegar (organic) from Eden Foods is likely gluten free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
