I have been gluten free since june of this year - for the most part doing pretty good - until this week - I purchased some gluten free cookie mix - 365 Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookie Mix (it's distributed by whole foods) I know I didn't anything else that could have caused this problem - my gut has been killing me for two days - severe gas and bloating something that seems to be more severe now since I've been gluten free - I think that I'm actually more sensitive to gluten products intestinally. I guess my gut was so dead that it didn't matter so much - but that's another topic my question is

HAS ANYONE HAD A PROBLEM WITH THIS PRODUCT? I eat egg and milk products all the time and don't seem to have any problems with either... SUGGESTIONS? Is it possible that there is something in the product that IS NOT gluten free and they screwed up? I'm telling you - this has been really bad. I'm actually a DH person as well and I've started itching and breaking out a little.

thanks for your input.

Debbie

Did you bake your cookies on glutened pans ??? I glutened myself with Gluten Free Pantry's yummy brownie mix after I made then in a mini muffin tin that had gluten in it. Ugh.

I'd also look at what else you are eating since I'm sure you aren't just eating cookies. ;)

I know I'm in the minority on this, but I have reacted to every 365 Brand product that I've tried. One of those products was sent to the lab at the U of Nebraska, and tested negative for gluten--but the rep told me that they only tested down to 200 PPM.

This may have changed, so I would suggest you call them and see if the product was made in a facility or on equipment that also processes gluten, and about how/if they check for gluten in the products.

nope - brand new cookie sheet. I've learned my lesson on the "used" baking equipment - about 3 weeks ago I made some gluten-free waffles in my old teflon coated waffle iron - BIG MISTAKE - I knew better - I just wanted those waffles so bad!! it was the Kinnikinnick (spelling?) brand and they were great! But this was a mild reaction I had from the waffles... nothing like what I've been going through the last couple days... I'm a little better today and I still have cookies left - I'm almost tempted to wait till I get better and be the martyr and try it again.. just to make sure. sounds dumb huh? They were SO GOOD!

Good idea though... If I hadn't known about using new baking stuff - it could have been the problem...

wow - thanks! I don't think i'm going to try that brand again. I made some Bob's Red Mill brownies one time and made a chocolate cake from the back of a tapioca flour box and both were great with no reactions.

it says on the box that it was made in a 100% gluten free facility... but maybe it was the chocolate chips?

Now I know what it is I shall try to resume the healthy diet - the symptoms are annoying rather than painful, and I think it was doing me a lot of good,...

      Healthy diet leading to terrible bloating

      Stegosaurus, One size doesn't fit all. Most celiacs do fine with oats and other non-gluten cereal grains. Grains can contribute important nutrients to the diet and are a relatively inexpensive food energy sources. I don't agree with the position that all celiacs should eliminate all grains from their diet. This line of thinking has been promoted for years...

      Osteoporosis: Does the body start rebuilding bones after starting a gluten-free diet?

      While it's true that lifting heavy weights is a good bone builder, it may not be advisable for those with certain medical conditions like heart disease, arthritis and for the elderly or for those who don't have access to the equipment. Bone building drugs like Fosamax slow down the disposal of worn out osteoclasts (bone cells) and so help maintain/restore...

      Quick update.  I saw the title of this thread and forgot that I'd actually started it!  Oh dear! It seems my new healthy diet was the cause of these symptoms,  I had a clear colonoscopy, thankfully. Now I know what it is I shall try to resume the healthy diet - the symptoms are annoying rather than painful, and I think it was doing me a lot of good, I certainly lost some pounds around the waistline (pity they piled back on again at Christmas!)

      Stegosaurus, One size doesn't fit all. Most celiacs do fine with oats and other non-gluten cereal grains. Grains can contribute important nutrients to the diet and are a relatively inexpensive food energy sources. I don't agree with the position that all celiacs should eliminate all grains from their diet. This line of thinking has been promoted for years by books like Dangerous Grains which make the case on logic rather than actual real world data. Like many biological phenomenon, what would seem to be logical doesn't pan out to be true in the real world.  But if you are one of those in the minority of celiacs who cannot tolerate cereal grains at all, I'm glad that you were able to sort that out.
