Wheat Free Soy Sauce

I realize that each celiac disease patient is different in what they can eat and can't eat but, does anyone have any firsthand knowledge of the Organic Tamari Wheat Free Soy Sauce?

I see that one of the ingredients listed is organic alcohol. Anyone know what this is made from? I would like to hear about any positive or negative experiences please.

Thanks!

We use San-J Organic Tamari Wheat Free Soy Sauce here at my house. It is gluten free. I don't use it myself very often because I am allergic to soy and have to follow my meal with Benadryl if I choose to have some, but my kids love it. My husband is the only one in the family who is not gluten-free and he keeps stealing my San-J brand because it tastes better than his Kikkoman (which is NOT gluten-free!).

As for the alcohol aspect of the product. On the back of the San-J label it says this,

"Fermentation produces alcohol in naturally brewed soy sauce. We add only enough corn-based alcohol to prevent the growth of yeast or mold."

I am extremely confortable using their product.

Another good product is Greta's Marinades. She makes a sesame-soy marinade that is wonderful and is made from wheat free soy sauce. I make stir-fry with this and it is wonderful. Here is a link to the website. Open Original Shared Link

She only has two products and both are gluten-free. I get mine at Save Mart, but I've heard some west coast Costco locations have it. I am thinking about buying a case online, since I can only get the small bottle locally. My daughter just adores this sauce.

God bless,

Mariann

I use VH soy sauce in stir fries. When I eat plain rice I use Tamari Soy Sauce "Oriental Ginger" made by LifeSoy. It is very good on plain rice! YUM!

The bottle of Tamari Soy Sauce that I have says that it is gluten free, wheat free, non fermented, and has no alcohol added on the label. It also says on the label that it is "Approved for use by individuals with celiac spruce or an intolerance to wheat".

      COVID19 and getting glutened

      By lauramac · Posted

      I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease abput 10 years ago. When I was initially diagnosed my only "symptom" was persistently low iron (that occasionally dipped into anemia). After diagnosis,  over time, I started to develop symptoms when exposed to gluten--they have been overall relatively minor, but have increased over time (and yes, I realize my guts are likely being wrecked regardless of the symptoms) on the rare occasions I've been exposed to gluten. I had COVID19 last week (now testing negative) and was glutened last night (never trust anything labeled gluten-free in a mixed environment). I had my traditional symptoms (sharp gas pains, burping, nausea, stomach ache) but they were accompanied by new, more intense symptoms (muscle cramps all over my body--feet, calves, biceps, neck, shoulders, jaw, abdomen, I'm still sore today and cold sweats). I spent about 6 hours writhing before I felt well enough to get up.  I have been told by my allergist that COVID19 can cause your immune system to hyper react. I'm wondering if that's what happened here.   Has anyone else had experience getting glutened post COVID19? Relatively shortly after recovering from COVID19? Was it a more extreme reaction or same? I can't seem to find any articles on this, so I thought I'd ask the community.  Thank you!

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      A friend of mine is in the bar trade most of his life and has never heard of lines being mixed for different type of beers and ciders. Better to stick with cans.

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Thanks very much for confirming my suspicion @Scott Adams! That helps a lot because I'm really trying to track down and get rid of these sources of cross-contact and so I'm going to just rule out the draft ciders and hope that helps. Also @Rogol72 its nice to hear you haven't had a problem on that side of the pond - draft cider lines being used for cider only certainly sounds like the right way to do it, but I think that must not always be practiced over here!

      Gluten challenge and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis

      By Zuma888 · Posted

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.
