Sojo Fish & Chips

I bought a box of Sojo FIsh & Chips at Whole Foods.

It says gluten free right on the box - TWICE!

Yet it says is contains malt viniger, which, I thought was NOT gluten-free.

Sure enough, 10 minutes later (now), I have that tell-tale headache right in the middle of my forehead, like a band is across it. A sure sign (for me) or being glutened.

Thoughts? Was that just a dumb thing for me to do, seeing "malt viniger" as an ingredient & buying it anyway, just because it said it was gluten-free? Am I just causing this reaction psychosomatically? Do I need to call them & let them know their product is NOT gluten free?

What's a girl to think/do?

Do you have a website or # for the brand? Malt vinegar isn't gluten-free. Was it mixed in or in a separate package?

OMG!!!

I just got of the phone with Joe from Sojo Foods - he is SO awsome!

Despite the fact that according to the tests the Canadian Government conducted (that have a zero parts per million standard) the product contains no gluten, the company is altering their recipe from using malt vinegar to using regular vinegar.

He is also contacting all the stores that carry the product and letting them know one of the customers had a rection to that product.

I can't believe it! Even though I am the only person to notify them of a reaction, they are changing their recipe!!!!!!!

Do they not just ROCK?!?!?!?!?!

      Is AG1 safe for Celiacs??

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      From their website I see "organic barley leaf powder" as an ingredient. Keep in mind that the gluten is in the kernel, and not in the leaves. https://drinkag1.com/about-ag1/ingredients/ctr

      Before the rise of social media we were well known by a lot of doctors and were recommended by many, especially our Safe & Forbidden Lists, but as doctors get younger and younger this is probably not happening as much as before.

      Inflammation and Menier’s disease link?

      By nataliallano · Posted

      Thanks Scott I will definitely check my vitamins and minerals to see what I am missing so then I can supplement. I was very concern about my Meniers syntoms and i tryed to find some alive. Now im just realizing that my celiac is provably the root cause of my Meniers none of the 12 doctors I saw told me anything about this.  This web site is so helpful, thanks to people like you we can get answers.

      Chest pain from celiac

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Vitamin D deficiency can contribute to rib pain. Chest pain stemming from the ribs ccould be costochondritis, which involves inflammation of the cartilage connecting the ribs to the breastbone. This pain can range from mild to severe, potentially mimicking heart attack symptoms, and is often worsened by breathing or movement. Other potential causes include muscle strain, rib fractures, or even referred pain from other conditions.  It will also help to chose vegetables low in omega 6.
