Aunt Jemima Syrup Gluten Free?

I used to love Aunt Jemima syrup before going gluten-free. Now when I eat Van's waffles I usually eat them with pure syrup but I'm finding I would rather have Aunt Jemima instead but I don't know whether they are gluten free or not. If anyone could tell me I would be very grateful. Thanks:)

According to the Quaker Oats website, they're gluten-free:

I used to have a van's waf. every morning with aunt jemima. I wouldn't have any other syrup! it's gluten-free, but b/c of the high fructose corn syrup (now that i am trying to eat healthier), I switched to natural agave syrup - and i love it....

I used to love Aunt Jemima's syrup, but then I read all sorts of horrible things about high fructose corn syrup--apparently, it raises your blood sugar but does not signal your pancreas to produce insulin, and it has an extremely addictive quality (just what what we all need, right).

So I switched to real maple syrup, which tasted almost too sweet at first, but then after I'd gotten used to it, I tasted Aunt Jemima's again at a friend's house. I was amazed how chemical-ish it tasted in comparison to the real thing.

We now buy the real thing at Costco (much cheaper than even Sam's Club) in a huge jug, and we keep it in a little cube fridge in the basement, using it to refill a regular-sized container that lives in our kitchen refrigerator. You do have to refrigerate it (because it doesn't have all those preservatives and chemicals).

And it's gluten-free!

Hi this was one of my first calls that I made. the best thing to do is either email or call. They told me it is gluten-free. my daughter uses it every week w/her gluten-free pancakes. I just make sure to get the regular one, not extra buttery or flavored.

good luck

Right before I eat the waffles/pancakes I mix real maple syrup with a little of the Aunt Jemima - this keeps the artificial ingredients down to a minium and gives a little of the real maple to the mix. I mix up just enough for that one time (I guess if you have a family you can keep it mixed in refrigerator but it'll only keep just as long as real maple syrup stays good in refrigerator).

Dear Angel,

Do you have a contact for Entero labs? My daughters blood work has never been sent there. I also dont think her dr did HLA'S or DQ series. How do i know which to get done? Her peds dr is willing to do any tests that need to be done. He has been in practice for more than 30 years, since I was a kid he was my dr. and my daughter is his first Celiac Patient.. So what I learn he learns.

TYVM :D

Lynn

ps love your statements!!! SO very true!!!

      My migraines generally have their onset during the early morning hours as well. Presently, I am under siege with them, having headaches all but two days so far this month. I have looked at all the things reported to be common triggers (foods, sleep patterns, weather patterns, stress, etc.). Every time I think I start to see a pattern it proves not to pan out in the long run. I'm not sure it's any one thing but may, instead, be a combination of things that coalesce at certain times. It's very frustrating. The medication (sumatriptan or "Imatrix") is effective and is the only thing that will quell the pain. NSAIDs, Tylenol, even hydrocodone doesn't touch it. But they only give you 9 does of sumatriptan a month. And it doesn't help that medical science doesn't really know what causes migraines. They know some things about it but the root cause is still a mystery.

      Just a gluten free diet is not enough.  Now you have to identify and replenish your malnutrition.  Celiac disease is co-morbid with malabsorption syndrome.  Low vitamin D, Low Thiamine caused Gastointeston Beriberi, low choline, low iodine are common the general population, and in newly diagnosed Celiacs in the western culture its is more likely.  It takes time to heal and you need to focus on vitamins and minerals.  Gluten free foods are not fortified like regular processed foods.

      Dear Kitty Since March I have been following your recommendations regarding vitamins to assist with various issues that I have been experiencing.  To recap, I am aged 68 and was late diagnosed with Celiac about 12 years ago.  I had been experiencing terrible early morning headaches which I had self diagnosed as hypoglycaemia.  I also mentioned that I had issues with insomnia, vertigo and brain fog.   It's now one year since I started on the Benfotiamine 600 mg/day.  I am still experiencing the hypoglycaemia and it's not really possible to say for sure whether the Benfotiamine is helpful.  In March this year, I added B-Complex Thiamine Hydrochloride and Magnesium L-Threonate on a daily basis, and I am now confident to report that the insomnia and vertigo and brain fog have all improved!!  So, very many thanks for your very helpful advice. I am now less confident that the early morning headaches are caused by hypoglycaemia, as even foods with a zero a GI rating (cheese, nuts, etc) can cause really server headaches, which sometimes require migraine medication in order to get rid off.  If you are able to suggest any other treatment I would definitely give it a try, as these headaches are a terrible burden.  Doctors in the UK have very limited knowledge concerning dietary issues, and I do not know how to get reliable advice from them. Best regards,

      @rei.b,  I understand how frustrating starting a new way of eating can be.  I tried all sorts of gluten-free processed foods and just kept feeling worse.  My health didn't improve until I started the low histamine AIP diet.  It makes a big difference.   Gluten fits into opioid receptors in our bodies.  So, removing gluten can cause withdrawal symptoms and reveals the underlying discomfort.  SIBO can cause digestive symptoms.  SIBO can prevent vitamins from being absorbed by the intestines.  Thiamine insufficiency causes Gastrointestinal Beriberi (bloating, abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea or constipation).  Thiamine is the B vitamin that runs out first because it can only be stored for two weeks.  We need more thiamine when we're sick or under emotional stress.  Gastric Beriberi is under recognised by doctors.  An Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test is more accurate than a blood test for thiamine deficiency, but the best way to see if you're low in thiamine is to take it and look for health improvement.  Don't take Thiamine Mononitrate because the body can't utilize it well.  Try Benfotiamine.  Thiamine is water soluble, nontoxic and safe even at high doses.  I thought it was crazy, too, but simple vitamins and minerals are important.  The eight B vitamins work together, so a B Complex, Benfotiamine,  magnesium and Vitamin D really helped get my body to start healing, along with the AIP diet.  Once you heal, you add foods back in, so the AIP diet is worth doing for a few months. I do hope you'll consider the AIP diet and Benfotiamine.
