"safe" Spices?

Hello all,

I'm new to the group, and am a little confused. Maybe there's a link on the site somewhere, but I'm wondering which spices are considered "safe"?

Some folks have mentioned that spices contain salicylates, which might also be a problem, so I'm even more confused now.

Been sick with CFIDS for 8+ years, and now getting fibro the past 5 months, so need to turn this around. Actually getting quite scared.

Also very underweight -- need to stop this muscle wasting and hope to eventually gain maybe 15-20 lbs, but can't eat sugary foods due to a candida issue, and a problem digesting fats.

Hope you can help!

Thanks in advance, :)

Dan

The safest spices are the ones you buy singly, in bulk or in jars, with no additives. Make your own blends and you won't have to worry about anonymous ingredients glutening you.

Do you have reasons to believe you are sensitive to salicylates? If not, you won't need to avoid them. If you think you are, it would probably be best to find out for sure.

Hi Dan--welcome to the board!

From a gluten standpoint, McCormick spices will clearly list any gluten ingredients on the label--you only need to read them. That is the brand I use.

Tone's and Zaterain's will too

      KAN-101 Treatment for Coeliac Disease

      By Russ H · Posted

      This treatment looks promising. Its aim is to provoke immune tolerance of gluten, possibly curing the disease. It passed the phase 2 trial with flying colours, and I came across a post on Reddit by one of the study volunteers. Apparently, the results were good enough that the company is applying for fast track approval.  Anokion Announces Positive Symptom Data from its Phase 2 Trial Evaluating KAN-101 for the Treatment of Celiac Disease https://www.reddit.com/r/Celiac/comments/1krx2wh/kan_101_trial_put_on_hold/

      Gluten related ??

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi everyone  This has been a crazy year so far... How many people actually get entire sensory overload from gluten or something similar ?  My jaw is going nuts ..and that nerve is affecting my upper back and so on ...  Bones even hurt.  Brain fog. Etc  I had eggs seemed fine.   Then my aid cooked a chicken stir fry in the microwave because my food order shorted a couple key items .   I was so hungry but I noticed light breading and some ingredients with SOY !!! Why are we suffering with soy ? This triggered a sensitivity to bananas and gluten-free yogurt it seems like it's a cycle that it goes on.  The tiniest amount of something gets me I'm guessing the tiny bit of breading that I took one tiny nibble of ...yikes ..im cringing from it .. Feels like my stomach is going to explode yet still very hungry 😔  How long does this last?! Thank you so much

      Celiac getting dentures

      By gfmom06 · Posted

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.
