Anybody have any confirmation from their lists as to whether Lea and Perrins Worchesthire sauce is gluten free in Canada?

Thanks!

On the Canadian bottle I have (which has been in the cupboard for a long time), the first ingredient is malt vinegar. :( It is my understanding that the US version is different. This one is made in Canada by E. D. Smith under license.

Karen, I haven't found a gluten-free worcestershire in Canada yet, but Lorka150 can get Edward's and Sons. I think she is in Ontario as well. I make this one. It's smelly to make (boiling vinegar, ick!) but tastes all right.

Homemade Worcestershire Sauce

1/2 cup apple cider vinegar

2 tablespoons soy sauce

2 tablespoons water

1 tablespoon brown sugar

1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

1/4 teaspoon dry mustard

1/4 teaspoon onion powder

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

1/8 teaspoon cinnamon

1/8 teaspoon pepper

Place all ingredients in a medium saucepan and stir thoroughly.

Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Simmer 1 minute. Cool.

Store in the refrigerator.

Makes about 3/4 cup.

Shake well before using.

Heinz makes one that may be gluten free. It has soya sauce in it, but lists the ingredients in that soya sauce: water, salt, hydrolyzed soy protein, corn syrup, caramel. There is nothing else on the label that appears to be a risk, but it is probably best to contact the company for confirmation first.

Edit: Okay, scratch that...apparently Lea & Perrins is now owned by Heinz in Canada...and I cannot find the "Heinz version" of worcestershire sauce on their website. I'm thinking I've got a really old bottle here and it needs to be pitched out. :P Otherwise, Heinz states that they cannot guarantee any products, other than their ketchups, are gluten free.

Can you get Organic Wheat-Free Worcestershire Sauce by Edward & Sons (under the wizard label) is also Gluten Free.

The Edward and Son's one is everywhere around here.

Often, if health food stores carry anything Edward and Son's, they'll add it to a shipment.

I can send that (or Lea and Perrin's) to anyone if they'd like. Just let me know.

      I don't see how cornstarch could alter the test results. Where did you read that?

      For pain relief I take a combination of Thiamine (Benfotiamine), Pyridoxine B 6, and Cobalamine B12.  The combination of these three vitamins has analgesic effects.  I have back pain and this really works.  The B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted.   Hope this helps!  Keep us posted on your results!

      Welcome to the forum, @Xravith. I experienced similar symptoms before my diagnosis.  Mine were due to the loss of vitamins and minerals, essential nutrients we must get from our food.  With Celiac Disease, the intestinal lining, made up of thousands of villi, gets damaged and cannot absorb essential vitamins and minerals, especially the eight B vitamins.  The loss of Thiamine B 1 can cause muscle loss, inability to gain weight, edema (swelling), fatigue, migraines and palpitations.  Low thiamine can cause Gastrointestinal Beriberi with symptoms of nausea, abdominal pain and bloating.   Thiamine is only stored for a couple of weeks, so if you don't absorb enough from food daily, as the thiamine deficiency worsens physical symptoms gradually worsen.  If you're eating lots of carbs (like gluten containing foods usually do), you need more thiamine to process them (called high calorie malnutrition).  Thiamine works with all the other B vitamins, so if you're low in one, you're probably getting low in the others, too, and minerals like iron, magnesium, zinc, and calcium, as well as Vitamin D..  Talk to your doctor about checking for nutritional deficiencies.  Most doctors rarely recognize vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially in thiamine. Get a DNA test to see if you carry any Celiac genes.  If you do not have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably IBS.  If you do have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably Celiac.  I was misdiagnosed with IBS for years before my Celiac diagnosis.   Keep us posted on your progress. P. S. Deficiency in thiamine can cause false negatives on antibody tests, as can diabetes and anemia.

      No she didn't because if I want to ask I have to pay 700$ for 1 hour appointment so I couldn't even ask. I read that fillers like cornstash can alter the result and tylenol contains it so that's why I tried to find someone who can answer.

      Did the GI doc give you any rational for stopping the Tylenol during the gluten challenge? I have never heard of this before and I can't imagine a good reason for it. Ibuprofen, maybe, because it is an anti inflammatory but acetaminophen?  I don't see that it would have any impact on the test results to take Tylenol.
