Gulden's Mustard


jaimek

Recommended Posts

jaimek Enthusiast

So, I just ate lunch an hour ago and on my way back to work I started feeling dizzy and nauseaus. The only thing different that I had was Gulden's spicy brown mustard. So, I called to find out if it was indeed gluten-free (i checked the ingredients and it looked fine). The lady said that it is not. That it contains vinegar which is distilled but they cannot guarantee that it is gluten-free. I thought all distilled vinegar was gluten-free???? :( So, now I am sitting here at work and am light headed and have slight vertigo. I have been gluten-free for about 6 months now and it seems to only be getting more and more frustrating to deal with. I am not willing to sit in my house like a hermit and never go out to eat. At this point, if this disease didn't cause infertility, I would probably just give up on it. It just seems impossible to never have an accident. I used to look forward to vacations/going out to dinner. Now I don't look forward to anything. :angry:

If you ate out contamination is the most likely culprit, not distilled vinegar in the msutard.

I didn't eat out. I packed my lunch and put the mustard in my turkey wraps.

That's weird...but I'm not sure it was the mustard either. Are you sure there wasn't something wrong with the turkey, or that you just simply weren't feeling well. I know that when my son doesn't feel well I automatically blame gluten, even when I know he hasn't had any. Sometimes, as the saying goes, a cigar is only a cigar....

No, definitely know it was the mustard. I had been eating that same turkey all week and was fine. I don't eat breakfast so that was the first thing I ate all day and I drank water with it. Then, the only new thing I added was the mustard and I started feeling dizzy right after I finished eating it. So, I would be careful with mustard even though distilled vinegar is supposed to always be gluten-free.

it was the mustard... i have problems with distilled vinegar as well.. watch anything pickled.. i think it's farmans that is okay.. if you like bananna peppers the only brand i've found that is made with out distilled v. is krogers brand, as for mustard say bye bye to french's, the only brand i've found (i LOVe mustard) that doesnt use distilled v. is the safeway brand.

I use Grey Poupon without any problems. I called and was told it is gluten-free. :) It is owned by Kraft so they clearly list any gluten.

This is so confusing re: vinegars! I thought distilled vinegar was safe. I have a list of gluten-free foods, and French's mustard is listed, but Gulden's isn't. I bought Grey Popupon, though.

So, is vinegar good or not?????

The vinegar itself is glutenfree. Some people just have bad reactions to it. My younger sister cannot eat vinegar.

Guest gfinnebraska

Thank you, Plantime, I was getting confused! I have no reactions to French's mustard ~ also can eat pickles. Would hate to have to give them up!!! :o

I have the same problems with vinegar. I found a brown rice vinegar I am going to try using and see if it causes a reaction. Even apple cider vinegar caused me problems.

It is indeed. Most of the people who participated in this discussion in 2004 are no longer active participants here (the exception is Richard [lovegrov]). Also, ingredient and gluten-free status from 2004 may not be accurate today. Use this information with caution.

At least we know that Magdalena Rose is using the search feature. Too many members don't even bother, IMHO.

Good for you MR! :D

best regards, lm

      Thank you @JulieRe so much for sharing this extra information. I'm so glad to hear you're feeling better and I hope it keeps moving in that direction. I feel I'm having so many lightbulb moments on this forum just interacting with others who have this condition. I also was diagnosed with gastric reflux maybe about 10 years ago. I was prescribed ranitidine for it several years back, which was working to reduce my gastric reflux symptoms but then the FDA took ranitidine off the shelves so I stopped taking it. I had a lot of ups and downs healthwise in and around that time (I suddenly gained 20 pounds, blood pressure went up, depression got worse, and I was diagnosed with OSA). At the time I attributed my change in symptoms to me taking on a new stressful job and didn't think much else about it. They did give me a replacement gastric reflux drug since ranitidine was off the shelves, but when I went on the CPAP for my OSA, the CPAP seemed to correct the gastric reflux problem so I haven't been on any gastric reflux drug treatment for years although I still do have to use a CPAP for my OSA. Anyway that's a long story but just to say… I always feel like I've had a sensitive stomach and had migraines my whole life (which I'm now attributing to having celiac and not knowing it) but I feel my health took a turn for much worse around 2019-2020 (and this decline started before I caught covid for the first time). So I am now wondering based on what you said, if that ranitidine i took could have contributed to the yeast overgrowth, and that the problem has just been worsening ever since. I have distinctly felt that I am dealing with something more than just stress and battling a more fundamental disease process here. I've basically been in and out of different doctor specialties for the past 5 years trying to figure out what's wrong with me. Finally being diagnosed with celiac one year ago, I thought I finally had THE answer but now as I'm still sick, I think it's one of a few answers and that maybe yeast overgrowth is another answer. For me as well, my vitamin deficiencies have persisted even after I went gluten-free (and my TTG antibody levels came down to measurably below the detectable limit on my last blood test). So this issue of not absorbing vitamins well is also something our cases have in common. I'm now working with a nutritionist and taking lots of vitamins and supplements to try and remedy that issue. I hope that you continue to see improvements in working with your naturopath on this. Keep us posted!

      Hello everyone. I am Elena and am 38 years old. I suspect I have a gluten intolerance even if my celiac panel is ok. I have the following symptoms : facial flushing, Red dots not bumps în face, bloating abdominal distension, hair loss, depression anxiety even with meds and even bipolar. Fatigue extreme to the point of not being able to work. All of these after I eat gluten. Could I have non celiac gluten sensitivity? Thanks anyone else with these symptoms?

      Hi Everyone,  I do appreciate your replies to my original post.   Here is where I am now in this journey.  I am currently seeing a Naturopath.  One thing I did not post before is that I take Esomeprazole for GERD.  My Naturopath believes that the decrease in the gastric acid has allowed the yeast to grow.    She has put me on some digestive enzymes.  She also put me on Zinc, Selenium, B 12, as she felt that I was not absorbing my vitamins. I am about 5 weeks into this treatment, and I am feeling better. I did not have any trouble taking the Fluconazole.

      I'm sure it's chemically perfect. Most of them taste lousy!

      Hi @JulieRe.  I just found your post.  It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida.  I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment.  In the meantime, I have been working with a functional medicine doctor, doing a candida cleanse and taking vitamins. It's already helping to make me feel better (with some ups and downs, of course), so I do think the yeast is definitely a problem for me on top of my celiac disease and I'm hoping my GI doctor can look into this a bit further.  So, how about you?  Did the candida come back, or is it still gone following your fluconazole treatment?  Also, was it awful to take fluconazole?  I understand that taking an antifungal can cause a reaction that sometimes makes people feel sick while they're taking it.  I hope you're doing better still !
