Folks,

Just reminding everyone (especially the newbies) to not eat "HoneyBaked HamS Co" Hams

They are NOT GLUTEN FREE and you will get sick...

Otherwise,

Have a Happy Turkey Day!!!

I contacted HoneyBaked Hams and they said that they would be happy to make a ham for me with no glaze on it and then it would be fine. They also said that the turkeys are okay too. Just an FYI.

Heavenly Ham said the same thing.

Its nice that HBH and HH are catering to us.

FYI, I seem to remember someone getting a ham from HBH last year that was supposedly gluten-free, but they still had some serious cross contamination issues.

I make my own with Hormel Cure 81 hams, brown sugar and honey...

Most commercial glaze packets have wheat, tho not all. Read the ingredients.

I didn't think their sliced turkey breast were ok. I thought the whole turkeys they make are ok, but not the normal sliced ones. I just looked it up on their website and in the nutritional info it says contains wheat under the ham, sliced turkey breast and ribs. It doesn't have any allergens listed under the whole turkeys.

Sam's Club has a honey-baked, spiral cut ham that is clearly labeled gluten free. I made one for Thanksgiving (I react to poultry, even organic) and it was great. The glaze packet is also labeled gluten free, but I didn't use it.

Wegman's (Oh, how I miss them!) also has a gluten-free honey-glazed, spiral cut ham.

Actually, it is starting to look like the wheat is disappearing from more of those glaze packets.

that's good. although we've been glaze free for so long that hubby is uninterested in using gluten-free glaze, he's so used to the plain taste that the glaze tastes weird.

Does anyone know about the ham from Costco? I think it is Kirkland brand. I was thinking about making one for Christmas, but I would like to make sure it is gluten free.

As with any ham, all you need do is read the ingredients on the Costco ham. If there's gluten it will be from wheat and MUST be listed.

I was a long-time HoneyBaked fan and always thought it was easier than making my own. Then I tried a Hormel Cure 81 ham in an oven bag with a brown sugar and mustard glaze that was sooo easy and it was delicious! :D

Wonderful! I am trying to plan my Christmas day dinner, and my husband wants HB ham. I think I'll try Sam instead this year. Thanks for posting this!

I just spoke to organic's and the meat manager. The manager confirmed that their spiral ham is infact gluten-free.

      I followed the Autoimmune Protocol Diet which is really strict for a while, but later other foods can be added back into your diet.  Following the AIP diet strictly allows you digestive system to heal and the inflammation to calm down.  Sort of like feeding a sick baby easy to digest food instead of spicy pizza.   It's important to get the inflammation down because chronic inflammation leads to other health problems.  Histamine is released as part of the autoimmune response to gluten.  High histamine levels make you feel bad and can cause breathing problems (worsening asthma), cardiovascular problems (tachycardia), and other autoimmune diseases (Hashimoto's thyroiditis, diabetes) and even mental health problems. Following the low histamine version of the AIP diet allows the body to clear the histamine from our bodies.  Some foods are high in histamine.  Avoiding these makes it easier for our bodies to clear the histamine released after a gluten exposure.   Vitamin D helps regulate the immune system and calm it down.  Vitamin D is frequently low in Celiacs.  The B Complex vitamins and Vitamin C are needed to clear histamine.   Supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals boosts your intestines' ability to absorb them while healing.   Keep in mind that gluten-free facsimile foods, like gluten-free bread, are not enriched with added vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts are.   They are empty calories, no nutritional value, which use up your B vitamins in order to turn the calories into fuel for the body to function.   Talk to your doctor or nutritionist about supplementing while healing.  Take a good B Complex and extra Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine (shown to promote gut health).  Most B Complex vitamins contain thiamine mononitrate which the body cannot utilize.  Meats and liver are good sources of B vitamins.   Dr. Sarah Ballantyne wrote the book, the Paleo Approach.  She's a Celiac herself.  Her book explains a lot.   I'm so glad you're feeling better and finding your balance!

      So I should not eat my gluten free bread?  I will try the vitamins.  Thank you all so very much for your ideas and understanding.  I'm feeling better today and have gathered back my composure!

      Some people prefer eating gluten before bed, then sleeping through the worst symptoms at night.  You might want to try that and see if that makes any difference.   Several slices of toast for breakfast sounds okay.  Just try to work up to the Ten grams of gluten.  Cookies might only have a half of a gram of gluten.  The weight of the whole cookie is not the same as the amount of gluten in it.  So do try to eat bread things with big bubbles, like cinnamon rolls.   Yeah, I'm familiar with the "death warmed over" feeling.  I hope you get the genetic test results quickly.  I despise how we have to make ourselves sick to get a diagnosis.  Hang in there, sweetie, the tribe is supporting you.

      Thank you, a little expensive but glad to have this source.

      @knitty kitty  Thank you very much for the advice. I did the exam this morning, my doctor actually suggested me to take something called "Celiac duo test" in which I first do the genetic test and if it's positive, then I'll have to do the antigen blood test. I have to attend 1 month until my results are ready, so I have some weeks to increase the amount of gluten I eat daily. It will be hard because my health is not the best right now, but I also did a blood test to cheek my nutritional deficiencies. The results will arrive on Tuesday, so I can ask my doctor what should I do to control my symptoms and blood levels during this month. For now I'm resting and paying attention to what I eat— at least I don’t look like a vampire who just woke up, like I did yesterday. I'm still scared because is the first time I've felt this sick, but this is the right moment to turn things around for the better.  I realized that if I eat gluten at lunch I cannot finish the day properly, I become severely tired and sometimes my stomach hurts a lot - let's not talk about the bloating that starts later. Do you think is it ok to eat gluten just in the morning, like some cookies and slices of bread for breakfast?
