Gluten Free Soy Sauce.......

I jsut recieved this emai from ConAgra regarding LaChoy soy sauce. I did a lot of label reading a while back to find one that is gluten-free and the LaChoy seemed like the winner, butust to be on hte safe side I thought I'd email them....... I have contacted ConAgra before and was told that they have a similar policy s Kraft, but haven't heard much on here about them so i was still leary.....anyway......has anyone tried it???? Is it good to go?????

Thank you for your recent e-mail requesting information on gluten content.

ConAgra Food Ingredients has done gluten testing on only a minimal number of our products. However, we did test two LaChoy soy sauces, and both tested negative for gluten. The product identifiers are:

UPC #44300 12511 15 oz LaChoy soy sauce

UPC #44300 12513 10 oz LaChoy soy sauce

We hope this information is useful to you.

Try San-J wheat free tamari. Far superior to La Choy, IMO.

I used to love San-J when I could eat soy! it even says wheat free on the bottle, just make sure you do get the wheat free one cause they also have a normal one, and my mom bouhgt that once, but then she realized before i ate what she out in it! ooops!

Tamari is a special type of Japanese soy sauce that should be wheat-free. Shoyu is the regular type, which always has wheat. San-J makes both types. Read the labels, definitely.

I use San-J also. Actually just had a great stir fry with San-J for dinner.

THAnks!!! I will look for San-J next time I go to the store........ I was jsut so excited to find a soy sauce in the general market that was gluten-free.........and now that I have figured out how to make ravioli (YUMMMY!!) my next project will be egg rolls.......and I need soy sauce for the meal that goes with those.......

i use Bragg's Liquid Aminos. Naturally gluten-free, says so on the label, GMO free, and delicious.

Both Walmart and Kroger have store brands that are gluten free. I contacted Kroger. It's the one with the red label. Walmart's has a green label and says gluten free.

Not all tamari is gluten-free! Should be, perhaps, but you still have to read the labels...

Do we sound like a broken record?

My frustration is shopping in ethnic groceries where the labels aren't even in English!

I was going to reply .. and then did a bit of research. What I was going to say is now irrelevant because it turned out to be a whole lot more complex than I thought... think inuit words for snow!

I think people should probably just read this :

Open Original Shared Link

queenofhearts: it also contains the Chinese and Japanese labelling !!!

      Welcome to the forum, @NCalvo822! Ditto to what Scott said. But let me ask you, what method or methods did your physician use to diagnose you as having celiac disease? Normally, it is a two step process. The first step involves a blood test that looks for certain antibodies produced by celiac disease. The second step involves an upper GI scoping and biopsy of the small bowel lining to check for the damage to the lining typically caused by celiac disease. This second step is used as confirmation of the blood work when the antibody testing turns up some positives. Occasionally, positive antibody tests scores can be caused by things besides celiac disease. Which of these were done or did you have both done before the doc declared you to have celiac disease?

      Thanks for sharing this info! Frustrating to see companies who haven't used wheat as an ingredient start to do so! https://blistex.com/product/five-star-lip-protection/

      I followed the Autoimmune Protocol Diet to get my symptoms calmed down and my nutrients up.   I know what a struggle it is.  You're why I'm here. Smoothing out some rough parts of your journey makes my journey worthwhile. Here's the tests you can get for Celiac antibodies...

      @Ginger38, I'm with you!   I could not take Metformin.  I got so sick, constant diarrhea, abdominal cramps, extreme highs and lows, no energy, weight loss, muscle wasting.  Just horrible.   Metformin is known to block thiamine absorption.  Talk to your doctor about thiamine deficiency.  It's called Gastrointestinal Beriberi.  My doctor didn't recognize thiamine deficiency outside of alcoholism.  So I took over the counter Thiamine in the form Tetrahydrofurfuryl Disulfide and felt health improvement within an hour.  Magical!   I followed the Autoimmune Protocol diet to get my stomach calmed down and control my blood glucose levels without medication. Being diabetic, we lose more thiamine through our kidneys, and the Metformin on top of it and malabsorption from Celiac.  Talk to your doctor soon!
