Beware Of Turkey Rolls

I just attended a Thanksgiving Feast at the school where I teach. A corporation paid for the feast for our entire school and staff and all the teachers had to attend- the press was there and everything. The cafeteria lady was so good to me. My tray just had the turkey, corn and cranberries on it. The turkey was the processed roll sort of thing. I just got back from the grocery store where-- on a whim--I checked the ingredients of a turkey roll. Just as clear as can be..."Wheat Gluten" AAAAHHHH. Who would have thought it? Maybe they don't all have this in it, but here's the warning anyway!!! I learn something new every day.

Butterball is out too!!! It's weird to have to read the ingredients when buying a frozen bird...I always thought it was just...um dead bird :huh:

It was cool though, tonight my wife and I found a turkey that was labeled as "gluten free" the food manufacturers are finally catching on!!!!!!!

<_< turkeys have become so controversial in the forum---so pastor dave--what did you read on a turkey that shows wheat----an unstuffed turkey should only be injected with a saline solution and i know the butterballs i have seen and eaten were gluten-free--i am getting so confused about the turkeys :( i think i will have a baked potato with cheese and broccoli and forget the stupid bird :D i would rather have chicken anyways--deb :P

BUTTERBALL IS gluten-free!!!! If you saw wheat in the ingredients look again, it's in the gravy packet, not the turkey. Butterball just recently confirmed that all their turkeys are gluten-free except the stuffed ones.

The butterball turkey says it is soaked in a solution that contains modified food starch, which I've been assuming is not gluten-free although I'm well aware that they all are not made from wheat. So why doesn't butterball list it as modified corn starch?

      Potential celiac need advice

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶
