just wondering if anyone has tried the whole foods 365 brand rice crackers? I have some sesame ones that I am dying to try.

The label clearly states "Good manufacturing processes used to seperate ingredients ion a FACILITY where wheat is processed". I have trouble with shared equipment but not necessarily shared facilities.

Hi Bev :D

I don't have good luck at all with the 365 brand. Maybe it's just me. I've not tried the crackers, but their almond butter, digestive enzyme and tomato sauce all made me sick.

The almond butter was sent out for testing to the U of Nebraska, and showed gluten-free only to 200 PPM. Maybe things have changed.

Let me know if you try them :)

Are you feeling any better?

i am feeling better! :D

So of course, in my usual style :ph34r: I ate some last night and NO reaction to report! of course, there's the three day waiting period.

Excuse me!?!? :o:huh::ph34r::angry:

Why would almond butter have gluten contamination?!?!

I was going to look into trying there brand since Maranatha organic is so expensive. Does WF have organic nut butters?

I know- that is NUTS but isn't that the Codex standard? :ph34r: i remember reacting VERY badly to an Amy's product and the U of N only found 33 ppm :o

I'm pretty sure they DO have organic nut butters at WF.

Andrea--

I know it sounds crazy. I had reacted to their products before, but didn't complain. With the almond butter, I emailed them and asked about it and mentioned that I was sure it had made me react.

They got back to me, sent me the packaging and postage label, and had me sent it out there for testing. The woman that I spoke to called me back--I can't remember how long after--and told me the results.

I had a thread on this back when it happened--at that time, several people said they also had problems with that brand. Like I said, maybe this has changed by now.

You have a waiting period? I do too. after I was tested and did the preprep stuff I figured it out about what I ate usually appered anywhere between 1 -3 days after sometimes sooner depending what is was. Usually never immeiatly, maybe the stomach noises but would take me a long time for a reaction down under :huh:

yeah- usually I have night sweats THAT night but when I went in for GI testing back in June it took the stupid 5 cups of barium and some other yucky stuff like 3 1/2 hours to move through my small intestine and they had to use a paddle to get it moving so I know I've got one SLOW digestive system.

I pretty much live on the 365 crackers. I like the sesame ones and the seaweed ones. I eat them _all_ the time, and have not had issues.

Now just an almond-pickin' minute!! :angry::lol:

I do GREAT w/ that almond butter. :)

Not to get too ContrarianSpice on ya, but are u sure the 200ppm # doesn't just come from the precision of the test?

I'm pretty sure that a retail price for a 200ppm test is ~$10-20. (Bought some years ago)

I'd venture a guess that a 20ppm test is well over 10x the cost of a 200ppm test.

These things most often go up closer to exponentially.

Was there some indication that the test they used *did* indicate gluten, or was the response more "hey if there IS any, it's under 200ppm"?

Considering how much I rely on this brand of almond butter for trips, I'm very very (can I get a vee-ee-are-why?) interested.

:blink:

(Usually a jar or two in the suitcase, and some in brown-rice tort wraps in carry-on)

Yea--it was pretty much that if it had gluten, it was under 200PPM. CC, possibly?

I'm extremely sensitive, and this is far from the only product that gave me a reaction. I was actually surprised that they offered to test it.

I'm sure lots of people eat it with no problems :)

U of N can test down to 20 ppm. When Amy's sent a sample out to be tested for me (cuz I'm SO special :P ) they told me it couldn't detect anything lower than that so i'm pretty sure that patti's EVIL almond butter had 200 ppm in it.

I'm glad someone doesn't react to it!

I DEFINITELY reacted to the crackers- I feel absolutely HIDEOUS today. It's been awhile since I've gotten glutened and I forgot how "lovely" it feels. Not! :angry:

May also explain why yesterday I tried to launder my soda cans and recycle my socks :rolleyes:

      In the study linked above, the little girl switched to a gluten free diet and gained enough weight that that fat pad was replenished and surgery was not needed.   Here's the full article link...

      Hello, @Jordan Carlson, So glad you're feeling better.   Tecta is a proton pump inhibitor.  PPI's also interfere with the production of the intrinsic factor needed to absorb Vitamin B12.  Increasing the amount of B12 you supplement has helped overcome the lack of intrinsic factor needed to absorb B12. Proton pump inhibitors also reduce the production of digestive juices (stomach acids).  This results in foods not being digested thoroughly.  If foods are not digested sufficiently, the vitamins and other nutrients aren't released from the food, and the body cannot absorb them.  This sets up a vicious cycle. Acid reflux and Gerd are actually symptoms of producing too little stomach acid.  Insufficient stomach acid production is seen with Thiamine and Niacin deficiencies.  PPI's like Tecta also block the transporters that pull Thiamine into cells, preventing absorption of thiamine.  Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are difficulty swallowing, gagging, problems with food texture, dysphagia. Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are symptoms of ADHD and anxiety.  Vyvanse also blocks thiamine transporters contributing further to Thiamine deficiency.  Pristiq has been shown to work better if thiamine is supplemented at the same time because thiamine is needed to make serotonin.  Doctors don't recognize anxiety and depression and adult onset ADHD as early symptoms of Thiamine deficiency. Stomach acid is needed to digest Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) in fruits and vegetables.  Ascorbic acid left undigested can cause intestinal upsets, anxiety, and heart palpitations.   Yes, a child can be born with nutritional deficiencies if the parents were deficient.  Parents who are thiamine deficient have offspring with fewer thiamine transporters on cell surfaces, making thiamine deficiency easier to develop in the children.  A person can struggle along for years with subclinical vitamin deficiencies.  Been here, done this.  Please consider supplementing with Thiamine in the form TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) which helps immensely with dysphagia and neurological symptoms like anxiety, depression, and ADHD symptoms.  Benfotiamine helps with improving intestinal health.  A B Complex and NeuroMag (a magnesium supplement), and Vitamin D are needed also.

      @pothosqueen, Welcome to the tribe! You'll want to get checked for nutritional deficiencies and start on supplementation of B vitamins, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1.   There's some scientific evidence that the fat pad that buffers the aorta which disappears in SMA is caused by deficiency in Thiamine.   In Thiamine deficiency, the body burns its stored fat as a source of fuel.  That fat pad between the aorta and digestive system gets used as fuel, too. Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test to look for thiamine deficiency.  Correction of thiamine deficiency can help restore that fat pad.   Best wishes for your recovery!   Interesting Reading: Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome in a 6-Year-Old Girl with Final Diagnosis of Celiac Disease https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31089433/#:~:text=Affiliations,tissue and results in SMAS.

      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.
