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.

Are there any sodas that contain gluten? I haven't found one yet, but just curious.

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.

      Insomnia help

      Thank you for your post, @nanny marley It is interesting what you say about 'It's OK not to sleep'. Worrying about sleeping only makes it much harder to sleep. One of my relatives is an insomniac and I am sure that is part of the problem. Whereas I once had a neighbour who, if she couldn't sleep, would simply get up again, make a cup of tea, read,...

      It could be a fructan intolerance? How do you do with dates? https://www.dietvsdisease.org/sorry-your-gluten-sensitivity-is-actually-a-fructan-intolerance/

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      Thank’s for addressing the issue of mushrooms. I was under the impression that only wild mushrooms were gluten-free. Have been avoiding cultivated mushrooms for years. Also, the issue of smoked food was informative. In France last year, where there is hardly any prepared take-out food that is gluten-free, I tried smoked chicken. Major mistake!

The D3 does have coconut oil but it is non GMO, it is Gluten free, Soy free, Soybean free and Safflower oil free.  I have a cupboard full of supplements that did not agree with me -  I just keep trying and have finally settled on Sports Research. I take NAKA Women's Multi full spectrum, and have not felt sick after taking 2 capsules per day -  it is a Canadian company. I buy both from Amazon. I wish you well in your searching, I know how discouraging it all is. Florence.

      highly unlikely  NOTHING and I mean NOTHING else has ever caused me these kinds of symptoms I have no problem with dates, they are a large part of my diet In fact, I eat a very high fiber, very high vegetable and bean diet and have for many years now. It's considered a whole foods plant based or plant forward diet (I do now eat some lean ground turkey but not much) I was off dairy for years but recently had to add back plain yogurt to meet calcium needs that I am not allowed to get from supplements (I have not had any problem with the yogurt)   I eat almost no processed foods. I don't eat out. almost everything I eat, I cook myself I am going to keep a food diary but to be honest, I already know that it's wheat products and also barley that are the problem, which is why I gradually stopped eating and buying them. When I was eating them, like back in early 2024, when I was in the middle of moving and ate out (always had bread or toast or rolls or a sub or pizza) I felt terrible but at that time was so busy and exhausted that I never stopped to think it was the food. Once I was in my new place, I continued to have bread from time to time and had such horrible joint pain that I was preparing for 2 total knee replacements as well as one hip! The surgery could not go forward as I was (and still am) actively losing calcium from my bones. That problem has yet to be properly diagnosed and treated   anyway over time I realized that I felt better when I stopped eating bread. Back at least 3 yrs ago I noticed that regular pasta made me sick so I switched to brown rice pasta and even though it costs a lot more, I really like it.   so gradually I just stopped buying and eating foods with gluten. I stopped getting raisin bran when I was constipated because it made me bloated and it didn't help the constipation any more (used to be a sure bet that it would in the past)   I made cookies and brownies using beans and rolled oats and dates and tahini and I LOVE them and have zero issues eating those I eat 1 or more cans of beans per day easily can eat a pound of broccoli - no problem! Brussels sprouts the same thing.   so yeh it's bread and related foods that are clearly the problem  there is zero doubt in my mind

Last week I decided to try a Floradix Magnesium supplement which seems to be helping me to sleep better.  It is a liquid magnesium supplement, so easy to take.  It is gluten free (unlike the Floradix iron supplement).  Might be worth a try.
