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

Thanks!

Karen

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.

I haven't found a safe worcestershire sauce in Canada.

I haven't found a safe worcestershire sauce in Canada.

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 know of a connection. Lots of people who don't have celiac disease/gluten issues get shingles.
    • Ginger38
      I’m 43, just newly diagnosed with a horrible case of shingles last week . They are all over my face , around my eye, ear , all in my scalp. Lymph nodes are a mess. Ear is a mess. My eye is hurting and sensitive. Pain has been a 10/10+ daily. Taking Motrin and Tylenol around the clock. I AM MISERABLE. The pain is unrelenting. I just want to cry.   But Developing shingles has me a bit concerned about my immune system which also has me wondering about celiac and if there’s a connection to celiac / gluten and shingles; particularly since I haven't been 💯 gluten free because of all the confusing test results and doctors advice etc., is there a connection here? I’ve never had shingles and the gluten/ celiac  roller coaster has been ongoing for a while but I’ve had gluten off and on the last year bc of all the confusion

      There were some interesting talks, particularly Prof Ludvig Stollid's talk on therapeutics for coeliac disease.    https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLRcl2mPE0WdigRtJPvylUJbkCx263KF_t

      Thank you @trents for letting me know you experience something similar thanks @knitty kitty for your response and resources.  I will be following up with my doctor about these results and I’ll read the articles you sent. Thanks - I really appreciate you all.

      You're right, doctors usually only test Vitamin D and B12.  Both are really important, but they're not good indicators of deficiencies in the other B vitamins.  Our bodies are able to store Vitamin B12 and Vitamin D in the liver for up to a year or longer.  The other B vitamins can only be stored for much shorter periods of time.  Pyridoxine B 6 can be stored for several months, but the others only a month or two at the longest.  Thiamine stores can be depleted in as little as three days.  There's no correlation between B12 levels and the other B vitamins' levels.  Blood tests can't measure the amount of vitamins stored inside cells where they are used.  There's disagreement as to what optimal vitamin levels are.  The Recommended Daily Allowance is based on the minimum daily amount needed to prevent disease set back in the forties when people ate a totally different diet and gruesome experiments were done on people.  Folate  requirements had to be updated in the nineties after spina bifida increased and synthetic folic acid was mandated to be added to grain products.  Vitamin D requirements have been updated only in the past few years.   Doctors aren't required to take as many hours of nutritional education as in the past.  They're educated in learning institutions funded by pharmaceutical corporations.  Natural substances like vitamins can't be patented, so there's more money to be made prescribing pharmaceuticals than vitamins.   Also, look into the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, developed by Dr. Sarah Ballantyne, a Celiac herself.  Her book The Paleo Approach has been most helpful to me.  You're very welcome.  I'm glad I can help you around some stumbling blocks while on this journey.    Keep me posted on your progress!  Best wishes!
