Chicken Bouillon Cubes

Hi All! Can anyone recommend a chicken broth or bouillon cubes that doesn't have gluten hidden in it? All I have come across has the mystery 'natural flavor' and I'm scared to try it.

Thanks!

Amanda

I use the Pacific Foods brand for all my broths. They are all natural (hooray!) and say gluten free right on the side.

HerbOX Chicken and Beef Broth and Cubes are gluten free.

I second the HerbOx recommendation. They have a good flavor, and don't have a lot of extra junk, either.

I put it in EVERYTHING from spaghetti sauce to rice, eggs and potatoes...anything that boils. :D

I particularly like to put the chicken ones in boiling potatoes, and the beef ones in green beans! It's much healthier than dumping in salt and butter. :D I've used them in rice, too, but I never would have thought of eggs.

Use chicken bouillon when boiling brussel sprouts.

Not one of my favorite veggies, but they are actually rather good this way.

OH!!! ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!! :lol::lol::lol:

I also use Better Than Bouillon. Works great when you need some flavoring but don't have the water/liquid to dissolve a cube in.

If you're a poor college kid like me, Swanson's beef and broths are both gluten-free and affordable. That's pre-made broth, though, not bullion.

We use this one too. It tastes better than any boullion cubes I have had. Delicious!

My boyfriend has celiac as well as being allergic to soy & dairy. Does anyone know of any brands that are also soy & milk free?

Or is there a way to turn chicken stock into a relative equivalent? I have an awesome steak marinade I love but it calls for bouillion with very little liquid.

Its one of my favorite recipes but I'd rather not poison my sweetie... Somehow I don't think he'd appreciate it very much either. Any help would be appreciated!

You marinate steak with chicken?  Herb Ox makes a sodium free powder that is soy and dairy free, too

      You might consider asking for a referral to a RD (Registered Dietician) to help with food choices and planning a diet. Even apart from any gluten issues, you will likely find there are some foods you need to avoid because of the shorter bowel but you may also find that your system may make adjustments over time and that symptoms may improve.

      I wish Dr’s would have these discussions with their patients. So frustrating but will continue to do research. Absolutely love this website. I will post any updates on my testing and results. Thank you

      Small Bowel Resection 12 inches

      Losing 12" of your small bowel is going to present challenges for you in nutritional uptake because you are losing a significant amount of nutritional absorption surface area. You will need to focus on consuming foods that are nutritionally dense and also probably look at some good supplements. If indeed you are having issues with gluten you will need to...

      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes...

      Losing 12" of your small bowel is going to present challenges for you in nutritional uptake because you are losing a significant amount of nutritional absorption surface area. You will need to focus on consuming foods that are nutritionally dense and also probably look at some good supplements. If indeed you are having issues with gluten you will need to educate yourself as to how gluten is hidden in the food supply. There's more to it than just avoiding the major sources of gluten like bread and pasta. It is hidden in so many things you would never expect to find it in like canned tomato soup and soy sauce just to name a few. It can be in pills and medications.  Also, your "yellow diarrhea, constipation and bloating" though these are classic signs of a gluten disorder, could also be related to the post surgical shorter length of your small bowel causing incomplete processing/digestion of food.

      There are two gluten-related disorders that share many of the same symptoms but differ in nature from each other. One is known as celiac disease or "gluten intolerance". By nature, it is an autoimmune disorder, meaning the ingestion of gluten triggers the body to attack it's own tissues, specifically the lining of the small bowel. This attack causes inflammation and produces antibodies that can be detected in the blood by specific tests like the TTG-IGA test you had. Over time, if gluten is not withheld, this inflammation can cause severe damage to the lining of the small bowel and even result in nutrient deficiency related health issues since the small bowel lining is organ where all the nutrition found in our food is absorbed.  The other is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or just "gluten sensitivity") which we know less about and are unsure of the exact mechanism of action. It is not an autoimmune disorder and unlike celiac disease it does not damage the lining of the small bowel, though, like celiac disease, it can cause GI distress and it can also do other kinds of damage to the body. It is thought to be more common than celiac disease. Currently, we cannot test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out to arrive at a diagnosis of NCGS. Both disorders require elimination of gluten from the diet.  Either of these disorders can find their onset at any stage of life. We know that celiac disease has a genetic component but the genes are inactive until awakened by some stress event. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% develop active celiac disease. The incidence of NCGS is thought to be considerably higher. I hope this helps.
