Pacific Vegetable Broth?

I have recently tried Pacific's Veggie Broth and noticed that I have been having reactions. I am unsure if it is from this product or Silk's Soy milk. Has anyone ever had any issues with this? The ingredients seem to be very safe, but I am extremely sensitive. Also, has anyone ever had any issues with Imagine soups? Any insight would be appreciated. :D

I use Pacific's broths alot without problem. Haven't used the Veg. broth. No problem with the Imagine products. I did try using the Silk Soymilk and didn't feel well so have quit using it. Wasn't my usual gluten reaction so I'm wondering if soy or something else in it bothers me.

I appreciate your responses! Yes, missy'smom, it seems to me that the Silk Soy milk is problematic for me as well. I am starting to believe that the carrageen has something to do with it. Although it is not gluten or a form of gluten, it is a stabilizer, which makes me think that I could be reacting to it.

I just did a little reading up on carageean and you may be right. That may explain why some soy milk seems not to bother me and others do. I used to get soymilk from a Vietnamese restaurant and it was so fresh and creamy and never seemed to bother me but many of the ones that are mass marketed give me something like headaches. I'm going to pay more attention to this. Thanks for bringing it up.

I have looked at West Soy's Organic Soy Milk and the ingredients look safe- no carrageen. Thing is, I know they process other soy milks that do contain barley and malt, so I fear the CC factor. At this point, I don't know if its worth trying, but it could be an option :)

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/

      A lot to think about here. Does anyone have any recommendations for third party laboratories that will do full panel celiac screens private pay in the U.S.?

      You don't need an official diagnosis to request a gluten-free diet in either a hospital or nursing home--this can be requested by anyone. The higher costs associated with existing conditions for life insurance is a reality, and regardless of your politics, it could become a reality again for health insurance in the USA. For many this could make health insurance unaffordable, thus, everyone who is undiagnosed should understand such potential consequences before they go the official diagnostic route. As mentioned, once it's on your medical record, it won't go away.
