Hard Candies -help Veterans?

Hi everyone,

Could those who are particularly sensitive and who've found a good hard candy made primarily with sugar, maybe corn syrup-but not high fructose, and little else but flavoring tell me what brands are safe? Are the starlight spearmints and peppermints made by simoncandy ALL safe? I'd just love to suck on a piece of candy every now and then.

Thanks!

lisa

Brachs and Sathers are not necessarily gluten-free. My daughter eats those on occasion and has had no problems with them.

Life Savers, Charms and Jolly Ranchers are all gluten free. I bought my daughter some Yummy Earth peppermint hard candy online (can't remember where), but she hasn't tried them yet. Customers at HSN give them a good rating though and they of allergens plus organic.

These guys make a lot more candy than I thought they did. Some good stuff here:

      I put on over 12kg by eating protein with every meal, 3 to 5 times a day. Eggs, Chicken, Tuna, Turkey etc. I stay away from too much red meat as it can be inflammatory. Scott is correct. I've come across a bunch of Coeliac PT's on Tiktok and Instagram. They all say the same thing, the key is getting enough protein and consistency.

      It's great to hear that eliminating gluten has helped alleviate symptoms like eye burning, which is a significant and positive change. The first and most important step is to ensure you're consuming enough protein throughout the day to support muscle repair and growth, which can be challenging with a busy schedule. Since you're already physically active at work, adding focused strength training just 2-3 times per week can make a major difference. Bodyweight exercises like squats, push-ups (modified if needed), and lunges, or using resistance bands at home, are excellent, efficient places to start. Remember, consistency with these short sessions and prioritizing post-workout recovery, including good sleep and hydration, are just as crucial as the workouts themselves. It's a smart, gradual process at any age.

      Trader Joe's carries a good variety of affordable gluten-free foods like bagels, hamburger buns, pasta, etc. I like Franz Gluten Free bread, which is available at my local Costco. Food For Life and Little Northern Bakehouse (advertisers here) also make excellent gluten-free breads. Costco also sells gluten-free pizzas, crackers, gravy, etc.
