A Taste Of Thai Peanut Noodles

Dear Gluten-Free Friends,

I got very ill the other week and could not figure out why. I knew I had been glutened. Well, I discovered it may have been the Thai Peanut Noodles from A Taste of Thai. Dad brought them home and read the label before picking them up.

He did not read the second label on the box he picked up behind it.

The boxes were identical, and the first was labeled gluten-free. As I was putting them away, I read the ingredients as usual. One box had wheat in it! Dad could not believe it, because they were in the exact same packaging! I always read things before eating them. So, I was thinking if these things are made in the same facility and just do not have a warning, cc is a good possibility. I am mad! :angry: I wanted to warn others in case they did not know.

Sincerely,

NoGluGirl

I believe they have changed them all now to having wheat in them. The older boxes are gluten-free as the newer ones are not. I unfortunately have 2 of the new boxes I cannot eat. I figured that out about 2 months ago. I was PO'd person.

Dear sparkles,

I will contact them this week and see what they say. I have a bad feeling they were made in the same facility as the ones with gluten. :unsure: Thai Kitchen makes some great ones, but they have been nowhere to be found as of late. Wal-Mart does not carry the same products all of the time. I will let you know what they company says after I call them.

Dear Generic,

This is such a bummer! :( Just what we need! More things that we cannot eat! :angry: You are probably right about this. If they just began putting gluten in them, then only the older packages are safe.

Sincerely,

NoGluGirl

Dear jennyj,

I love them, too! I was so upset when I noticed the wheat! :( These are so filling! They keep me satisfied. Thai Kitchen is not always available. Wal-Mart carries on thing one week, then you may not see if for months.

I also am VERY bummed about this change. I went to buy some more noodles about a month ago and noticed the "new" ingredient (wheat). BLEH!! I LOVED those noodles. They were SOOOOO yummy. I just don't understand why they have to go and add wheat to them!! BOOO!!!

I went to stay with my daughter agter she had surgery two weeks ago and when she got home I bought some for my lunch and she tried them and liked them, she isn't celiac. She called me a few days ago and said she is hooked on them now.

Dear Jessica,

I know, I could not believe they changed them! They are great the way they are! Maybe we could start a petition or something to get the wheat taken out? What do you guys think? Or, perhaps I should write a letter explaining how many people will no longer be purchasing their product due to the change.

Dear jennyj,

The noodles are addictive! I love them! Maybe writing the company will help fix this. These things are one of the few things that actually fills me up. Not many foods do that for me. I am almost always hungry!

I tried calling them the other day, it was a long drawn out process and I got annoyed and hung up. I guess I may have to try calling again when I have more time!! I LOVED those noodles.

Dear Jessica,

The noodles are so good! Why on earth would they change them? I assume it is a cost issue of some kind. Still, I am determined to find a way to let them know how I feel! I am going to point out that they are reducing their clientele by adding the gluten. There are 3 Million Celiacs in our country, on top of 10 Million more people who are gluten intolerant. If they know anything about marketing, they will change their mind!

Sincerely,

      My only proof

      Just wanted to add that checking B12 and Vitamin D only is not going to give an accurate picture of vitamin deficiencies.   B12 Cobalamine needs the seven other B vitamins to work properly.   You can have vitamin deficiency symptoms before the B12 blood level changes to show deficiency.  You can have "normal" B12, but have deficiencies in other B vitamins like Thiamine and Niacin, for which there are no accurate tests. Take a B Complex supplement with all the B vitamins.  Take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which has been shown to promote intestinal healing.  Thiamine Mononitrate found in most vitamin supplements is not easy for the body to utilize.  What makes thiamine mononitrate not break down on the shelf also makes it hard for the body to absorb and utilize.  Thiamine and Niacin B 3 deficiency symptoms include anxiety, depression and irritability.  The brain uses more Thiamine than other organs.  Take the B Complex and Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and look for health improvements in the following weeks.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      Hello, @rei.b, Ehlers Danlos syndrome and Celiac Disease can occur together in genetically predisposed individuals.  Losing ones gallbladder is common with celiac disease. I'm glad Naltrexone is helping with your pain.  Naltrexone is known to suppress tTg IgA and tTg IgG production, so it's not surprising that only your DGP IgG and DGP IgA are high.   Have you tried the Autoimmune Protocol diet designed by Dr. Sarah Ballantyne, a Celiac herself?  The AIP diet helps lower inflammation and promotes intestinal healing.   The AIP diet is a Paleo diet that eliminates foods that can cause intestinal inflammation until you heal on the inside, then more foods can be added back in.  The low histamine AIP diet will help reduce inflammation further.   Histamine is released as part of the immune response in celiac disease.  Foods also contain various amounts of histamine or provoke histamine release.  Lowering the amount of histamine from foods helps.  The body, with help from B vitamins, can clear histamine, but if more histamine is consumed than can be cleared, you can stay in an inflammatory state for a long time. Cutting out high histamine foods is beneficial.  Omit night shades which contain alkaloids that add to leaky gut syndrome found with celiac disease.  Night shades include tomatoes, peppers including bell peppers, potatoes and eggplants.  Processed foods like sausages and gluten-free processed products are high in histamines.  All Grains are removed from the diet because they are inflammatory and provoke histamine release. Blood tests for deficiencies in B vitamins are notoriously inaccurate.  You can have vitamin deficiency symptoms before blood levels show a deficiency.  Blood levels do not accurately measure the quantity of B vitamins stored inside the cells where they are utilized.  The brain will order stored vitamins to be released from organs into the blood stream to keep the brain and heart supplied while deficiency occurs inside organs, like the gallbladder.  Gall bladder dysfunction is caused by a deficiency in Thiamine Vitamin B 1 and other B vitamins.   The eight essential B vitamins are water soluble and easily lost with diarrhea and constipation, and the malabsorption and inflammation that occurs with celiac disease.  Because they are water soluble, the body can easily excrete any excess B vitamins in urine.  The best way to see if you are deficient is to take a B Complex and Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and look for health improvements in the following weeks.  Most B Complex supplements contain Thiamine Mononitrate which is not bioavailable.  The body has a difficult time utilizing thiamine mononitrate because it doesn't break down easily.  Benfotiamine has been shown to promote intestinal healing.   Remember your intestines are in a damaged, permeable state.  Treat them tenderly, like you would a baby until they heal.  You wouldn't feed a baby spicy bell peppers and hard to digest corn and nuts.  Change your diet so your intestines can heal.   I use a combination of B12 Cobalamine, B 6 Pyridoxine, and B1 Benfotiamine for pain.  These three B vitamins have analgesic properties.  They relieve pain better than other otc pain relievers.

      I hadn't been eating gluten free before having the antibody test done. I started eating gluten free after having the test done because the gastro PA told me to eat gluten-free for 6 months. I'm now 3 months in.
