Safe & Forbidden Food & Ingredient List


msserena

Recommended Posts

Greetings all

Does any one know of a more accurate food list then what is on the website here?

I have emailed them a few times tonight on a few things that I have seen in the safe list that are not safe or vs

Example: Heinz 57 sauce, they have on the list as safe, which indeed is not safe due to the fact that it has malt vinger in it. Which is also listed as unsafe on this website.

I know I cant have that for sure it makes me sick for a week.

Also safe candy. M&M's are not mentioned on the safe list of candy( which also makes me sick) but yet they have it under DQ m&m blizzard ice cream as safe.

HMMM :wacko:

;) there are as many food lists out there as there are forums-- you can go to www.clanthompson.com and view their list---i have a very good list from www.napervillegi.com/celiac --it is from the wheaton celiac support group of chicago--there is the delphi forums---type in gluten free food lists in google and see what you find----and as always--when in doubt--call the company---the napervillegi food list includes all the 800# for the different food companies---kraft is one company that will always list gluten grains on its label--there are many more--even posts in here that contain websites to go too--happy hunting--deb

You can't depend on lists.

I have to echo the "you can't depend on lists, you really need to read the labels and call on any questionable ingredients" sentiment. The reason many of those lists aren't 100% accurate is three fold: the time committment in keeping them updated, the potential for frequent changes in product formulation, and the variations by country. (For instance, that list won't work in Canada, because some companies have gluten in a product sold in one country and don't have gluten in the SAME product sold in another country. It's wacky.)

:P otay--we are all right---the list cant be trusted 100% but they are a very good base to start with and they do list companies that have bothered to reply--nothing is a 100% for we celiacs--BUT, many people have put a lot of time and effort into making these lists and they are here for us--i always look to the list for answers and then i do a follow up of reading the ingredients on the package :P deb

I find the following list the most comprehensive and always kept current:

It is even broken down into categories for easy reference.....

Have a great day!

      Get tested for vitamin deficiencies.  Though neuropathy can be a symptom of celiac, it can also be caused by deficiencies due to poor digestion caused by celiac and could be easier to treat.

      Thank you so much for your response  Yes it seems as though things get very painful as time goes on.  I'm not eating gluten as far as I know.  However, I'm not sure of cross contamination.  My system seems to weaken to hidden spices and other possibilities. ???  if cross contamination is possible...I am in a super sensitive mode of celiac disease.. Neuropathy from head to toes

This could be malpratice siit but im not good at finding lawyers

      We feel your pain. It took me 20+ years of regularly going to doctors desperate for answers only to be told there was nothing wrong with me … when I was 20 pounds underweight, suffering from severe nutritional deficiencies, and in a great deal of pain. I had to figure it out for myself. If you're in the U.S., not having an official diagnosis does mean you can't claim a tax deduction for the extra expense of gluten-free foods. But it can also be a good thing. Pre-existing conditions might be a reason why a health insurance company might reject your application or charge you more money. No official diagnosis means you don't have a pre-existing condition. I really hope you don't live in the U.S. and don't have these challenges. Do you need an official diagnosis for a specific reason? Else, I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you're diligent in remaining gluten free, your body should be healing as much as possible so there isn't much else you could do anyway. And there are plenty of us out here who never got that official diagnosis because we couldn't eat enough gluten to get tested. Now that the IL-2 test is available, I suppose I could take it, but I don't feel the need. Someone else not believing me really isn't my problem as long as I can stay in control of my own food.

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much need to cook with whole ingredients yourself to avoid it completely. Most gluten-free products should be safe, but while you're in the hypersensitive phase right after going gluten free, you may notice that when something like a microwave meal seems to not be gluten-free … then you find out that it is produced in a shared facility where it can become contaminated. My reactions were much-more severe after going gluten free. The analogy that I use is that you had a whole army of soldiers waiting for some gluten to attack, and now that you took away their target, when the stragglers from the gluten army accidentally wander onto the battlefield, you still have your entire army going out and attacking them. Expect it to take two years before all of the training facilities that were producing your soldiers have fallen into disrepair and are no longer producing soldiers. But that is two years after you stop accidentally glutening yourself. Every time you do eat gluten, another training facility can be built and more soldiers will be waiting to attack. Good luck figuring things out.
