I know you can buy the gluten free bags of icing sugar.....just wondering if the icing sugar in the grocery store that list ingredients as sugar & corn starch are safe to eat. Thanks in advance!

Sounds safe to me. But, as always, I'd call the company to be 100% sure. I always buy icing sugar from a regular grocery store without any problems.

I use Domino's Confectioners (10x)--never a problem :)

Most icing sugar is gluten free. If you're in a bind, you can always just make your own. It's really easy.

I buy Redpath, but once they were sold out, and I went over to Wal-Mart looking for it, and their brand (Great Value) was NOT gluten free. It had wheat starch, NOT corn starch.

I'm in the US. Great Value brand in my Walmart is gluten free and marked as so.

I'm also in the U.S. and the WalMart Great Value brand had wheat starch in it. I'm in Michigan.

Wow! That's scary! My bag says gluten free on it. I wonder if they changed it or if it just varies by plant.

I'll have to check at another WalMart sometime. I thought it was odd because so many of their brands say gluten free. I'm glad that I read it first because I almost just bought it.

      This varies a lot from person to person. I include foods that are not certified gluten-free but are labelled "gluten-free", while super sensitive people only use certified gluten-free. Both types of products have been found to contain gluten, so there are no guarantees either way: It you are in the super sensitive group, eating a whole foods based diet where you prepare everything is the safest bet, but it's also difficult. Eating out is the the most risky, even if a restaurant has a gluten-free menu. I also include items that are naturally gluten-free, for example refried beans, tuna, pasta sauces, salsas, etc., which have a low overall risk of contamination.

      Juice shots? Anti inflammatory

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I avoid turmeric now because I'm on low dose aspirin, but used to use this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08HYBN4DJ My recipes always vary according to what I have on hand, but my base is a frozen berry mix from Trader Joe's: https://www.traderjoes.com/home/products/pdp/fruits-greens-smoothie-blend-075603 In the warmer months I include herbs from my garden like Italian parsley and basil. I add almond milk as well.

      Thank you! This is very helpful. Quick followup: what is your recommendation re: gluten-free prepared foods (labeled gluten-free or certified gluten-free) during this time of being more strict about eating gluten-free? Is it necessary to eat only whole foods prepared at home, or is it safe to include prepared / packaged foods in her diet (I'm thinking particularly of snack foods)?

      Is blending same as cold press? Is there any juice recipe you tried that you feel helped like the ginger turmeric? Is there a brand turmeric powder you used etc? I used Aloe vera years ago but the taste is hard to get down. What are your go to juices you made?
