Hidden Gluten In Rice Dream Milk?


jayzeemomma

Recommended Posts

jayzeemomma Rookie

The ingredients on the Original Rice Dream beverage from the grocery store are very simple and do not contain gluten:water, organic brown rice (partially milled), expeller pressed high oleic safflower oil and /or sunflower or canola oil, sea salt. And that is it, except I went to the website just to see and it says it is not gluten free because they process it with a barley enzyme (which they discard so some may or may not be left behind), but this makes it not gluten free, and makes me very nervous about eating anything but fruits and vegetables if you know what I mean. The ingredient list was safe and no where on the box did it say anything about gluten, so I drank some and then later found this info out on the website. I wonder how to deal with this and how to ever really know if something is gluten free.

Thanks so much!

It is not gluten free. Avoid it. They used to list the barley enzyme / gluten warning on some of their boxes but I think they've stopped. It is the grandest scam out there. Depending on your sensitivity level you may not notice a problem with one intake or two. That is kind of how I am. However if I use this stuff in cereal every day for a week or two then I begin to become ill.

There are other rice milk options that are safe. Lundberg is one and Pacific Rice is another.

The ones in my grocery store say "not a gluten free product contains barley enzyme" this is the one with the heart on the front and the other one states gluten free. I decided to change to almond milk but always read cartons to be sure of any product since they will sometimes change ingredients or suppliers even if always gluten free before.

Hi jayzeemomma,

have you ever considered using 'Vance's Darifree' it's a dairy substitute derived from potato.

Yeah, the Rice Dream is really bad. Some cartons say it is not gluten free and some say it contains some really tiny amount of gluten. But they put that warning on the box in a weird place where you won't see it until after you've brought it home and perhaps even consumed a few cartons.

      I know it's after the holidays, but it would still be fun to do a cookie recipe exchange on this forum.

      I did talk to the nurse and she asked who told me no red meat.  I explained the person who called with the results of my blood work.  That was last week.  She told me the doctor was on vacation and would be back this week and she would talk to him and have someone call me this week.  I have not received a call yet.  I will call them back Monday as a reminder.

      I shop a fair bit with Azure Standard. I bought Teff flour there and like it. they have a lot of items on your list but probably no soy flour, at least not by that name. https://www.azurestandard.com/shop/product/food/flour/teff/brown/teff-flour-brown-unifine-gluten-free/11211?package=FL294 As mentioned in another answer, Palouse is a high quality brand for dry beans, peas and other stuff. I buy some foods on your list from Rani. I've been happy with their products. https://ranibrand.com/ Azure and Rani often use terms that skirt around explicit "gluten free". I've contacted both of them and gained some comfort but it's always hard to be certain. FWIW, my IgA antibody levels are very low now, (after including their foods in my diet) so it appears I am being successful at avoiding gluten.

      fwiw, I add nutritional yeast to some of my recipes. since going gluten free I eat almost no processed foods but I imagine you could sprinkle yeast on top.

      @Charlie1946, There are many vitamin deficiencies associated with PCOS and Celiac disease and mental health issues.  The malabsorption of nutrients caused by Celiac can exacerbate PCOS and mental health issues. Vitamin B 3 Niacin (the kind that causes flushing) improves sebaceous hyperplasia and PCOS. (300 mg/day) Vitamin B 1 Thiamine improves dysphagia, and with Omega Threes, Sjogren's, and PCOS.     (300 mg/day) The other B vitamins are needed as well because they all work together like an orchestra.   The fat soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K, are needed as well.  Low Vitamin D is common in both PCOS and Celiac and depression.   Deficiencies in Niacin Thiamine, Cobalamine B12, Folate B 9, Vitamin C, and Vitamin D can cause mental health issues.   I wish doctors would check for nutritional deficiencies and gastrointestinal issues before prescribing antidepressants.  My mental health issues didn't get better until my vitamin deficiencies were corrected and a gluten free keto/paleo diet adopted.   Though blood tests are not really accurate, you may want to get tested for deficiencies before supplementing, otherwise you'll be measuring the vitamins you've taken and blood tests will show blood levels that are too high. Yes, Thiamine TTFD and the other vitamins are available over-the-counter.  A B Complex with additional Thiamine TTFD and Niacin made a big difference to my health.  I follow a paleo diet, and make sure I get Omega Threes.  I took high dose Vitamin D to correct my deficiency there.   I've run through the mental health gamut if you would like to talk about your issues.  You can personal message us if you would be more comfortable.   Interesting Reading: Nutritional and herbal interventions for polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS): a comprehensive review of dietary approaches, macronutrient impact, and herbal medicine in management https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12049039/
