Do You Trust Amy's?

I'm living in a place now where there are Amy's meals available and I really want to eat them! I have eaten the microwavable meals before with no problems, but I think I've reacted to the canned chili and beans. I know that a lot of people have been contaminated and I don't to get sick before I start my new job.

I haven't tried the chili, but eat all the other stuff with no problem. Sometimes beans get me gassy and give me a belly ache, so maybe it was just a natural, normal reaction to the beans rather than a gluten problem.

I eat Amy's for breakfast every morning, love it and have no problems with the frozen entrees.

The tofu scrambler has gotten me 2x. But my daughter and I eat the mac and cheese, pizza, shepards pie and hot tamale pie with no problems.

Becky, could you be sensitive to soy?

Have had no problems with Amy's frozen food as long as it's the gluten-free stuff - Amy's make products with gluten.

I have never tried the canned chili though. The Mac and Cheese and Cheese Enchilidas are great!

No problems with Amy's for me. I Love their stuff, but just eat it as a treat for myself when I am too busy to cook or craving something special :)

Thanks everyone! I think I may try them again and hope that I don't get sick. Does anyone know why Amy's took the gluten free label off of the gluten free dinners?

I got sick from the mexican bowl and the mac & cheese, so I won't eat those again. I do eat the mexican frozen meals with no problem. When I contacted them about cc several months ago they said they were moving many of the gluten-free meals to a new gluten-free plant. It is the pizza, the mac & cheese (I think), a new one that is pasta with tomato sauce and maybe something else. The woman said they would be in stores in June. I asked if the warning label that says if things are produced in a plant with allergens would be removed and she said they haven't decided.

I may email them and see if those products are on shelves and if there is a way to identify them.

I still find ones with gluten-free labels. I know there were debating about the allergens in the plant label. I guess many people were upset by it. I like to know, so I hope they keep it on so we can tell which meals are produced in a gluten-free plant.

Thanks. I hope they start making all their gluten-free items in the new plant!

Becky, could you be sensitive to soy?

Nope, I have eaten other soy things and even soy milk and never had a problem. Just that scrambler 2x. But I did buy them the same day so maybe a bad batch?

I have not had a problem with this brand and I definitely trust them from my experience. I am very sensitive and have not reacted.

I've had good luck with Amy's too. I don't like the soups all that much (I think they're too oniony). I do really like the Indian Vegetable Korma.

      My only proof

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      Are Lindt chocolate balls gluten free?

      By RUKen · Posted

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.
