Which Products/brands/companies Do You Absolutely Trust?

Recommended Posts

Hi there,

I am having a huge issue with cross contamination and I've been playing detective. I don't have immediate, obvious gluten symptoms so I am trying to stick with companies/brands/products I know are safe. For instance, I've read people getting in trouble with Frito Lay's corn chips or Garden of Eatin' tortilla chips. Also, I eat Bob's Red Mill products and read how people are getting sick of those too. Ugh!!

Today I was reading the Amy's pizza (gluten-free and non dairy one) and it said produced in a facility that makes wheat. This makes me so mad!! With someone trying to be safe and to heal, I eat products labeled gluten free and then worry about the facility. So I thought I'd ask all of you what you have found so I'm not soooo paranoid! B)

Well, I am not sure if you have a Wegmans but their store brand is labeled gluten free and I have never had a problem. Also Walmart's Great Value brand is also marking their products gluten free and I have had success with them.

I trust Gluten Free Pantry, and the Grainless Baker.

Wegmans has never let me down, also Kinnickinnick, Bakery on Main, and Ener-g (although my sensitivity to soy means I can't eat their really good saltines anymore :( )

Ener-g, Gluten Free Pantry, Enjoy Life, Pacific Foods, Nestle, Kraft, Wegmans.

I have never had a problem with any of these. I actually have a pretty short list of companies I trust to buy prepared foods from.

I trust those who have never let me down, which sometimes are those that others have complained about. I have never been glutened by Lays Potato Chips, which, I always buy the plain ones or Rippled and only from Plano TX, I also, everyday, eat 2 Quaker Caramel Corn Ricecakes and have never, in 7 1/2 yrs, never been glutened by them. I use products with as minimal a list of ingredients as possible and usually whole, unprocessed foods, as a rule. I use Skippy Natural Peanut Butter, Pantene Shampoo and Conditioner, Softsoap, NatureMade Vitamins--there is a lot out there we can use and a lot we can't.

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.

      Please do more research before you settle on nicotine. Dr. Paul New house is a psychiatrist.  His latest study involves the effect of nicotine patches on Late Life Depression which has reached no long term conclusions about the benefits.   Effects of open-label transdermal nicotine antidepressant augmentation on affective symptoms and executive function in late-life depression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39009312/   I'm approaching the subject from the Microbiologist's point of view which shows nicotine blocks Thiamine B1 uptake and usage:   Chronic Nicotine Exposure In Vivo and In Vitro Inhibits Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Uptake by Pancreatic Acinar Cells https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26633299/   While supplementation with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can protect from damage done by  nicotine: Benfotiamine attenuates nicotine and uric acid-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in the rat https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18951979/   I suggest you study the beneficial effects of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and TTFD) on the body and mental health done by Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  Dr. Lonsdale had studied thiamine over fifty years.   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ I suggest you read their book Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition.     Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption causing malnutrition.  Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.
