Chicken Bouillon

I bought some Orrington Farms chicken bouillon. It said gluten free but has MSG listed as an ingredient. I am confused, some lists have MSG as ok and others don't. I used it to make pea soup and had heartburn and a few other bad stomach vibes...

Does anyone know if MSG is truly gluten free? I know its not good for you, but its in everything like taco seasoning and chicken bouillon.

MSG is not gluten related. Not so good for you, as you said, but not gluten related. I use HerbOX bouillon all the time.

I may be wrong about this, but I've read that all boullion is on the "bad" list. I checked my beef bullion cubes in the cupboard and sure enough they are loaded with gluten ingredients. Perhaps gluten free boullion is available or perhaps just canned "stock" is gluten free? But I definitely know mine contained various hydrolyzed ingredience and modified vegetable proteins and starches. Perhaps a bad brand? If you think about it, though, there's something holding it together and somethiing else making it oily enough to smash apart.

Hydrolyzed ingredients, modified vegetable proteins and starches do not indicate gluten. What ingredients are in question?

      I agree with @RMJ, you have multiple positive tests so celiac disease is likely.  This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease.

      One small study found that 50% of celiacs react to the dairy protein "casein" like they do to gluten. It is also common for celiacs to be lactose (the sugar in milk) intolerant, though that often disappears in time as the villi heal. About 10% of celiacs react to the oat protein "avenin" like they do gluten.

      Thank you so much Trents (Scott?)! I have started working with a dietitian and did a deep research dive as soon as I got the diagnosis. I am aware of what you mentioned in the first two paragraphs, and was not aware of anything in the third, so I am grateful for that information, and will talk to the dietitian about that. I think I was most interested in the withdrawal process - it gives me hope that, although I have felt unwell recently, I just need to be patient (not a strong suit). I have printed the article you sent and will look at it more closely. Thanks again!

      Welcome to the forum, @K6315! Gluten withdrawal typically lasts for a period of a few weeks. But there is a real learning curve involved in actually attaining to a gluten free dietary state. Much more is involved than just cutting out major sources of gluten such as bread and pasta. It's all the places that gluten is hidden in the food supply that is difficult to ferret out, like soy sauce and canned tomato soup, canned chili and canned pork n' beans, some "lite" pancake syrups, potato salad, flavorings, etc., etc. Gluten-containing grain products are hidden through alternate terminology and found in places you would never expect.  There is also "cross contamination" where naturally gluten free foods come into contact with gluten-containing grains during farming, transportation, storage and manufacturing processes. Then there is the issue of "cross reactivity" whereby you may be having gluten-like reaction to food proteins whose structure is similar to gluten. Chief among these are dairy, oats (even gluten-free oats), soy, corn and eggs. I am including this article that you might find helpful:
