Hi,

I'm still struggling with the hidden glutens and ran across this list of potential harmful ingredients. Veterns of the board, do you think is 50/50 that there is gluten in these itmes, or is it 100% chance. What are your experiences?

unidentified starch

modified food starch

hydrolyzed vegetable protein - HVP

hydrolyzed plant protein - HPP

texturized vegetable protein - TVP

binders

fillers

excipients

extenders

malt

Thanks for your input.

the chance doesn't matter. unless you know for sure that it does NOT contain gluten, you don't eat it. period.

unidentified starch - must be identified now by law

modified food starch - unless it's Kraft or another trusted company and you know it's safe, it's a toss up. Usually it's corn, but you have to call.

hydrolyzed vegetable protein - HVP - usually gluten

hydrolyzed plant protein - HPP - usually gluten

texturized vegetable protein - TVP - usually gluten

binders - has to be identified by law if has a top 8 allergen

fillers - has to be identified by law if it has a top 8 allergen

excipients - call and check

extenders - call and check

malt - unless it says rice malt, it's ALWAYS gluten (barley)

the chance doesn't matter. unless you know for sure that it does NOT contain gluten, you don't eat it. period.

THIS IS 100% TRUE

agreed.

I never really rely on odds anyway, even if I did know them, murphy's law applies to me so often it's not funny. Unless I am 100% sure it's safe I don't eat it (and then still I get sick sometimes........:()

Thanks for the replies...

Looking at the ingredients of Oberto Beef Jerky it says hydrolyzed corn and soy protein. I guess hydrolyzed means gluten... This is a bummer for me; I was eating this to bump up my protein intake to compensate for my high glucose problems (I will never give up fruit, at this point)...

Oh and looking at a can of Mug root beer it says; Modified food starch. Hurrmn…

The list gets narrowed down.

I'd research the root beer if it's something you like, it's not necessarily gluten, but you need to contact them to see what it is.

Corn and soy protein are okay as long as you don't have a problem with either corn or soy. Raw almonds will serve the same purpose, for variety's sake.

you don't have to throw those products out, you just have to call or email the company. hydrolized doesn't mean gluten - hydrolyzed is a chemical process. hydrolyzed corn and soy protein means that it comes from corn and soy, not wheat, barley, rye, or oats, so it's safe. Oberto is fine (except for one flavor - teriyaki, I think), as is Whole Foods and Tillamook's Beef Nuggets (again, some flavors).

I have been under the impression that Muggs is gluten free.

Yes, Mug's Root Beer is gluten free. They claim that on their website actually. Open Original Shared Link

I just had to look this up a couple of weeks ago, only reason I know. There might be other stuff in it that your body doesn't do well with, you can get a listing of all their ingredients on there if you want.

It definitely has gluten. Unless it says it's rice malt, it's from barley.

Hydrolized proteins and even modified food starches are in fact almost always gluten-free, and now if they have wheat it has to be listed in food. And wheat is what would be hidden in these things. The only warning heere is that if a company still has labels it printed up before the labeling law took effect, they can use those labels until they're gone.

O'berto's jerky is gluten-free EXCEPT the 2 or 3 flavors that clearly list wheat. Mug root beer is gluten-free.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      @xxnonamexx, There's labeling on those Trubar gluten free high fiber protein bars that say: "Manufactured in a facility that also processes peanuts, milk, soy, fish, WHEAT, sesame, and other tree nuts." You may want to avoid products made in shared facilities. If you are trying to add more fiber to your diet to ease constipation, considering...

      Celiac Disease Patients Face Higher Risk of Systemic Lupus

      What kind of practitioner did the blood test? Was this a medical doctor, a naturopathic doctor, a GI doc? I would certainly follow up with them and ask why they advised you not to eat red meat. I mean, it could be something like they, themselves, are a vegetarian and give that advice to everyone. Have you had an endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel...

      Dizziness after eating green beans?

      @EndlessSummer, You said you had an allergy to trees. People with Birch Allergy can react to green beans (in the legume family) and other vegetables, as well as some fruits. Look into Oral Allergy Syndrome which can occur at a higher rate in Celiac Disease. Switching to a low histamine diet for a while can give your body time to rid itself of...

      I found out the age of 68 that I am a celiac. When I was 16, I had my gallbladder removed when I was 24 I was put on a medication because I was told I had fibromyalgia. going to Doctor’s over many years, not one of them thought to check me out for celiac disease. I am aware that it only started being tested by bloodwork I believe in the late 9...

You may want to avoid products made in shared facilities.   If you are trying to add more fiber to your diet to ease constipation, considering eating more leafy green vegetables and cruciferous vegetables.  Not only are these high in fiber, they also are good sources of magnesium.  Many newly diagnosed are low in magnesium and B vitamins and suffer with constipation.  Thiamine Vitamin B1 and magnesium work together.  Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine has been shown to improve intestinal health.  Thiamine and magnesium are important to gastrointestinal health and function.

      Welcome to celiac.com @sha1091a! Your experience is a very common one. Celiac disease is one the most underdiagnosed and misdiagnosed medical conditions out there. The reasons are numerous. One key one is that its symptoms mimic so many other diseases. Another is ignorance on the part of the medical community with regard to the range of symptoms that celiac disease can produce. Clinicians often are only looking for classic GI symptoms and are unaware of the many other subsystems in the body that can be damaged before classic GI symptoms manifest, if ever they do. Many celiacs are of the "silent" variety and have few if any GI symptoms while all along, damage is being done to their bodies. In my case, the original symptoms were elevated liver enzymes which I endured for 13 years before I was diagnosed with celiac disease. By the grace of God my liver was not destroyed. It is common for the onset of the disease to happen 10 years before you ever get a diagnosis. Thankfully, that is slowly changing as there has developed more awareness on the part of both the medical community and the public in the past 20 years or so. Blessings!

      I found out the age of 68 that I am a celiac. When I was 16, I had my gallbladder removed when I was 24 I was put on a medication because I was told I had fibromyalgia.   going to Doctor’s over many years, not one of them thought to check me out for celiac disease. I am aware that it only started being tested by bloodwork I believe in the late 90s, but still I’m kind of confused why my gallbladder my joint pain flatulent that I complained of constantly was totally ignored. Is it not something that is taught to our medical system? It wasn’t a Doctor Who asked for the test to be done. I asked for it because of something I had read and my test came back positive. My number was quite high.Are there other people out here that had this kind of problems and they were ignored?

      Welcome to celiac.com, @EndlessSummer! Do you react to all vegetables or just specific kinds or families of them? What you describe with green beans sounds like it has an anaphylaxis component. Like you, walnuts are a problem for me. They will often give me a scratchy throat so I try to avoid them. Does it matter if the vegies are raw or will-cooked in how you react to them?
