Soy And Gluten

[ChristinaKs]

I'm trying to figure out the relation between soy and gluten. I know that if wheat, rye, or barely are listed then the food is a no-no, and I think I understand that maltodextern is bad, what are the others to look for? Soy?

Thank you in advance,

Christina

Soy has nothing to do with gluten, but it is a big, hard to digest protein and some people find it makes them feel bad when they eat it. If you've eliminated gluten, and still don't feel well, you can consider cutting out milk and/or soy, otherwise, don't worry about it.

Thank you, I was just concerned because I had bought Uncle Ben's Rice, but it had soybeans listed as an ingredient. So far as long as I keep gluten out and most dairy, I feel like I have a new lease on life.

Maltodextrin is safe in North America. It is usually corn but can be potato. If it is anything else, then it must explicitly say so. Foods sold in Canada and the US must conform to the applicable country's labeling laws, regardless of where they are made.

Thank you, Peter. This is all so new and I'm trying to learn fast.
