This is great news! I've never had the black bean but it sure sounds good. I have their wheat-free vegan gardenburgers in my freezer right now, they have oats in them but no wheat - When I'm done with them I want to only buy ones that are truly and completely gluten-free... so this info is helpful. Thanks!

It looks like only the Black Bean Chipote is gluten-free, am I right about that?

I just looked again at the product info and the Grilled has soy sauce in it, which has wheat.

"Flame Grilled Burger Ingredients

Soy Protein Concentrate-Hydrated, Canola Oil, Vegetable Gum, Wheat Gluten, Salt, Natural Flavors, Autolyzed Yeast Extract, Sesame Oil, Caramel Color, Soy Sauce (Water, Wheat, Soybeans, Salt), Dried Onion, Natural Grill Flavor (from Vegetable Oil), Dried Yeast, Ascorbic Acid. Contains: soy and wheat "

Have you ever had any CC issues from the Black Bean?

Arghh! That's awful. How can they call it gluten-free?

Or is flame-grilled different?

I just looked again at mine, the flame grilled says "gluten free" in red, I looked at the ingredients, yup, its gluten-free :D

I'm wondering if they have either changed the product or if the website was wrong. I looked for the Black Bean today at Wegmans (the only BB they had was in a #@&* wheat flour wrap) but they had the Grilled kind. Although it didn't say gluten-free on the box it looked safe. I hope they aren't reformulating the grilled ones and adding the soy sauce that would be a real bummer. I have bad reactions to CC so I decided to forgo these for myself because so many of the other ones have wheat.

from what i gather they changed the ingredients..I looked at them at a different grocery store and they did not say gluten free, but the ones I have do, its marked on the side of the box in red..i think once all the stores sell out of the older boxes you will see them

I get sick really easy..had another one just on a plate today with the kraft lactose free cheese and I'm ok

But can they reassure you that none of natural flavours and spices comes from a gluten source?

Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease. Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions...

I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      Insomnia help

      By nanny marley · Posted

      Great advise there I agree with the aniexty part, and the aura migraine has I suffer both, I've also read some great books that have helped I'm going too look the one you mentioned up too thankyou for that, I find a camomile tea just a small one and a gentle wind down before bed has helped me too, I suffer from restless leg syndrome and nerve pain hence I don't always sleep well at the best of times , racing mind catches up I have decorated my whole house in one night in my mind before 🤣 diet changes mindset really help , although I have to say it never just disappears, I find once I came to terms with who I am I managed a lot better  , a misconception is for many to change , that means to heal but that's not always the case , understanding and finding your coping mechanisms are vital tools , it's more productive to find that because there is no failure then no pressure to become something else , it's ok to be sad it's ok to not sleep , it's ok to worry , just try to see it has a journey not a task 🤗
