Can anyone help with what every day foods with brand names if possible I can eat and drink. I been trying to stay gluten free. I was just drinking Gatorade and felt funny. Come to find out has glucose which is forbidden. This is not the first mistake. I am on a very tight budget due to this disease sidelined me so bad am on disability. Also the list says be careful of flavorings and colors I believe. Anyway to get more specific? Any advice will be greatly appreciated!

If you have a favorite food I would recommend calling the 800 line and asking, looking at their website (a lot will have notes about gluten free foods in their frequently asked question area) or you can e-mail them.

*V8 has a lot of gluten free drinks (I like V Fusion Pomegranate/Bluberry)

*A lot of the 100% Juice drinks are gluten free -- need to read the label to make sure though. I like 100% Orange Juice by Minute Maid.

*Sprite is gluten free (a lot of the coca cola products are)

*For breakfast I eat fruit

*Lunches/Dinners -- Salads, Lean Cusine Glazed Chicken, Taquitos (delimex has some that are gluten free), Kinnikinnick frozen pizza crust (order online -- they also have bread and much more), Spaghetti (Classico sauce all red/white gluten free with Ancient Harvest noodles), Soup (Progesso will label, if you e-mail Campbells they will mail you a gluten free list), Dinty Moore beef stew (I put some cheese in it for little flavor), can tuna, different meats (ground beef, steak, pork etc) with vegetables or mashed potatoes, Mac and cheese using gluten free noodles and velveeta (the block kind) if you can have dairy, Mrs. Leeper's (makes hamburger helper type meals -- you can get online or health food type stores) and Uncle Ben's rice (their Fast & Natural Whole Grain Instant Brown Rice is really good -- says gluten free on the back of the box) I like to make a rice bowl with the rice, ground beef and put some BBQ Sauce in it. Oh if you like tacos -- Mission has white corn tortillas and hard shells (say gluten free on packaging).

Hope this helps. There are a lot of foods in the grocery store that are gluten free. If you have a WalMart (Great Value brand) they print Gluten Free on the package if it is. Kraft is also a brand that will list gluten if present in the ingredients. Hormel has a lot of gluten free items.

GOOD LUCK!

Glucose is a sugar and is OK.

Here are lists of safe and forbidden ingredients.

https://www.celiac.com/categories/Safe-Glut...6amp%3B-Ingred/

Kraft is a company that will list all gluten so if it is made by Kraft and the label DOESN"T say "WHEAT" or "BARLEY" it is OK.

By law wheat has to be listed as wheat but barley does not so we have to learn the ingreddients that may contain it and call, look up on a website or e-mail the comany to check whether or not it is gluten-free.

It takes a while to get everything straight. Your Gatorade should be fine and glucose is not gluten related.

Here is some beginners information:

Here is a list of companies who will clearly list all forms of gluten (as in wheat, barley, malt and rye):

Here is a list of Forbidden things:

I hope these will be helpful. On this site in the Product thread you will find more brand name products that we have found to be safe. Good luck.

Hormel deli meats are labeled gluten-free. Oscar Meyer is owned by Kraft and therefore will have gluten labeled (pretty sure many of OM's products have caramel color so it's nice to know this brand will label if it contains gluten). Smuckers always labels gluten.

Remember that while you're still healing even gluten-free foods can make you feel sick. You gut is irritated so anything you put in it can cause random pains. Give it time. I would think Gatorade would be ok, but I guess not!

      Frequent nausea after gluten-free diet

      By petitojou · Posted

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!
