Getting Ready To Add 10 Products Back To My Diet!


sullyfish

Recommended Posts

sullyfish Newbie

I've just been given the okay to add some foods back in to my diet. For the past 6 months, I've only been allowed to eat those products off of dedicated lines. I was told to proceed carefully and have labs done in three months after I have re-introduced 10 new products.

So...

These are all gluten-free, but not produced in gluten-free facilities and/or on dedicated lines. What I need to know is if anybody has had problem with these foods. Unfortunately (or fortunately, I guess), I don't have symptoms when I'm glutened, so I never know if there's a problem unless I have labwork done.

1) Orgran Lite & Crunchy Muesli (Fruit & Almond)

2) Thai Kitchen Rice Noodle Bowl (Mushroom)

3) Organicville Orange Cranberry Organic Vinaigrette

4) A Taste of Thai Sweet Red Chili Sauce

Thank you for your input if you use even one of the above!!

:)

I eat Thai Kitchen Spring Onion quite often with no problems (I am quite sensitive). I have also had the mushroom flavour before with no problems.

Is Orgran not produced on a dedicated line? I thought they were an entirely gluten-free company.

So sorry...I wasn't quite accurate. YES, Orgran is produced on a dedicated line! My doctor made me eliminate it due to questionable outsourcing of some of its outsourced processors. I'm sure it is probably fine, but I just want to check with others.

Here is the response from Orgran:

Thank you for your enquiry and interest in Orgran products. We would like to advice that Orgran products are wheat free, gluten free, dairy free, egg free, non-GMO, suitable for vegan and can be considered as natural.

To answer your question, we would like to advice that we are implementing HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point), which including approved supplier program.

The program assists us in ensuring that raw material supplied to are free from wheat, gluten, dairy and egg.

Although we process our product in a gluten free environment, however, part of our processing may out sourced out to a gluten containing product from another company. However, we can assure you that complete cleaning was carried out at the end of every shift and extra clean down is conducted when changing over from one product to another.

As a verification we conduct a routine gluten contamination analysis to ascertain the gluten status of this product.

I hope this information is some of assistance. Should you have nay queries please do not hesitate to contact us.

TTBOMK (to the best of my knowledge) (I think we actually need a new acronym, and I'm the last person in the world to think that the world needs a new acronym), the first two are totally safe. I don't know about the last two at all.

OMG Fiddle Faddle go to Australia :lol: . They have sooo many different brands of gluten-free muesli there it's crazy. Here are the ingredients in the Orgran brand:

Ingredients: Rice cereal flakes (rice flour, fructose, salt, emulsifier: vegetable derived monoglycerides), dried fruit mixed (20%), (sultanas, paw paw, apricot, apple, peach), sunflower seed, flaxseed, shredded coconut, sliced almonds 3%, sesame seeds.

I never tried it cuz there were so many other options (like this one ... Open Original Shared Link but Orgran stuff is usually pretty good.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.
