Soy Sauce

It is fair time here and the only thing I can eat is a shrimp dish that has Kikomann soy sauce. Should I or shouldn't I. I do not have access to a store at this time to look so I am hoping someone knows about this. I'm headed out there in about 5 hours.

Kikkomann soy sauce has wheat.

Two kinds, that I've seen so far, don't have wheat: LaChoy's (but I think it tastes awful) and San-J's Wheat-free Tamari. All other soy sauces (check the labels, they say wheat) are off limits.

I know this is a rather late reply, but being a fan of sushi, I often will purchase Bragg Liquid Aminos or a wheat free tamari and bring it with me when I am going to have sushi or anything that soy sauce tastes good with. Both are great replacements for soy sauce!

Fountain now do a gluten-free soy sauce - tastes great :)

Kroger soy sauce was gluten-free last time I checked.

Tamari is the only type of wheat free soy sauce. But it has alcohol, so you can't have it :P

Pardon my confusion, but is this a snappy retort? By the way, La Choy soy sauce is wheat AND gluten free. I HAVE READ THE INGREDIENTS (no offense to the original poster).

Umm.. yeah. Seen a few posts by this person that just seems to have a better-than-thou-I-know-everything attitude. That doesn't help anyone, and I'd ask this person to drop the attitude, and fully explain something.. if they want to actually be helpful here.

No offense meant to you coin-op. But if you truly want to help people here (and thanks if you do!), please be respectful and explain yourself, rather than just being snappy. Thanks. =)

And on that note, why is alcohol bad? And yes, I know some kinds of alcohol are bad. But haven't seen any reason to avoid all kinds.

Coin-Op--

I'm interested in hearing the story of your diagnosis and other celiac disease experiences. Maybe the reasons behind the difference in you gluten-free diet can help us. Please keep it positive--we are all equals here.

Take Care,

Tamari is the only type of gluten-free soy sauce? Hardly. And a lot of tamari has wheat -- you have to find the stuff that doesn't.

At a place called Wild Oats I get a Organic Tamari Wheat Free Soy Sauce by a company named San-J. They have a web site also www.san-j.com. Wild oats labels all of their Gluten Free stuff in my town.

:P Hope this helps for you...

Check it out!

The Kari-Out Company is making Panda Brand Gluten Free Soy Sauce Packets for commercial availability in the food distribution industry for Chinese restaurants and take out places.

Here's the link. Ask your favorite take out place to carry it and use it in your food prep? If you're a regular maybe they will. It's better than not being able to eat Chinese at all anymore!

Yes, this same Panda brand is available also at "Tokyo Joe's - Fast Food, Japanese" I think it is just around in Colorado, USA

But I still like that they got it around. I usually bring in my own Terriyaki suace(Premier Japan) and use a bit of both on just plane white chicken/rice bowl.

I recommend Wanjashan's Organic Wheat-Free Tamari..... I buy it from Wholefoods but I noticed it's not in all the Wholefoods. I've bought from the company direct as well (www.wanjashan.com). Great soy sauce without wheat and gluten free!

      Oh wow! Thanks for this information! I’m going to try the Benfotiamine again and will also add a B-complex to my supplements. Presently, I just take sublingual B12 (methylcobalomin). Is supplementation for celiacs always necessary even though you remain gluten-free and you’re healing as shown on endoscopy? I also take D3, mag glycinate, and try to get calcium through diet. I am trying to bump up my energy level because I don’t sleep very well and feel fatigued quite often. I’m now hopeful that adding the Benfotiamine and B-complex will help. I really appreciate your explanation and advice! Thanks again Knitty Kitty!

      @Hmart, The reason why your intestinal damage was so severe, yet your tTg IgA was so minimal can be due to cutting back on gluten (and food in general) due to worsening symptoms.  The tTg IgA antibodies are made in the intestines.  While three grams of gluten per day for several weeks are enough to cause gastrointestinal symptoms, ten grams of gluten per day for for several weeks are required to provoke sufficient antibody production so that the antibodies move out of the intestines and into the blood stream where they can be measured in blood tests.  Since you reduced your gluten consumption before testing, the antibody production went down and did not leave the intestines, hence lower than expected tTg IgA.   Still having abdominal pain and other symptoms this far out is indicative of nutritional deficiencies.  With such a severely damaged small intestine, you are not absorbing sufficient nutrients, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1, so your body us burning stored fat and even breaking down muscle to fuel your body.   Yes, it is a very good idea to supplement with vitamins and minerals during healing.  The eight essential B vitamins are water soluble and easily lost with diarrhea.  The B vitamins all work together interconnectedly, and should be supplemented together.  Taking vitamin supplements provides your body with greater opportunity to absorb them.  Thiamine and the other B vitamins cannot be stored for long, so they must be replenished every day.  Thiamine tends to become depleted first which leads to Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a condition that doctors frequently fail to recognize.  Symptoms of Gastrointestinal Beriberi are abdominal pain and nausea, but neuropathy can also occur, as well as body and joint pain, headaches and more.  Heart rhythm disruptions including tachycardia are classic symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  Heart attack patients are routinely administered thiamine now.   Blood tests for vitamins are notoriously inaccurate.  You can have "normal" blood levels, while tissues and organs are depleted.  Such is the case with Gastrointestinal Beriberi, a thiamine deficiency in the digestive tract.  Eating a diet high in carbohydrates, like rice, starches, and sugar, can further deplete thiamine.  The more carbohydrates one eats, the more thiamine is required per calorie to turn carbs into energy.  Burning stored fats require less thiamine, so in times of thiamine shortage, the body burns fat and muscles instead.  Muscle wasting is a classic symptoms of thiamine deficiency.  A high carbohydrate diet may also promote SIBO and/or Candida infection which can also add to symptoms.  Thiamine is required to keep SIBO and Candida in check.   Thiamine works with Pyridoxine B 6, so if Thiamine is low and can't interact with Pyridoxine, the unused B 6 accumulates and shows up as high.   Look into the Autoimmune Protocol diet.  Dr. Sarah Ballantyne is a Celiac herself.  Her book "The Paleo Approach" has been most helpful to me.  Following the AIP diet made a huge improvement in my symptoms.  Between the AIP diet and correcting nutritional deficiencies, I felt much better after a long struggle with not feeling well.   Do talk to your doctor about Gastrointestinal Beriberi.  Share the article linked below. Thiamine, gastrointestinal beriberi and acetylcholine signaling https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12014454/ Keep us posted on your progress!

      Thanks, that's a great addition that I hadn't thought of.

      Other diseases, medical conditions, medications and even (for some people) some non-gluten foods can cause villous atrophy. There is also something called refractory celiac disease but it is pretty uncommon.
    • trents
      knitty kitty asks a very relevant question. So many people make the mistake of experimenting with the gluten free diet or even a reduced gluten diet soon before getting formally tested.
