Pine Nuts?

Hey! I ate at Bonefish Grill a few days ago because I love their gluten free menu!! Anyway, I decided to have a salad (which I never do because I'm always suspicious of salad dressings). The salad is clearly marked Gluten Free, and I even asked for a list of ingredients in the salad dressing. It seemed to be gluten free. The salad was very basic, but it did have pine nuts on it. I ended up having SERIOUS D for 2 straight days!!! Has anyone had issues with pine nuts, or could I have possibly been contaminated in some other way. Thanks.

This is just a guess..................I don't know Bonefish but I'd bet the pine nuts were cc'd. I eat them on occasion but then again.........each person is different. Have you had pine nuts before...?

Of course it could be cc with ANYTHING in the meal ;)

Do you normally eat pine nuts without issue?

I'd be more suspicious of the CC coming from preparation in a kitchen with gluten. If a salad is labeled as gluten-free, I have to think that the ingredients are gluten-free. They could be in big legal trouble if the ingredients weren't checked. It's the method of preparation that can vary.

Disclaimer for certain people, but I know of no pine nuts that have gluten added. Doesn't mean there couldn't be CC somewhere, either with the pine nuts or something else, but in my experience -- and this does NOT include every single possibility -- pine nuts should be gluten-free.

The pinenuts they sell at Costco have a CC warning. I can't remember exactly what they could have been CC with, but it was something I couldn't eat so I didn't buy them.

Thanks for all the replies. So, I went to Bonefish again, and had the Cobb Salad. It had the same salad dressing as the other one I had, and it had pine nuts as well. No problems!! It must have been a fluke. SO GLAD - becaause it was Fabulous!! It also had jerk chicken and mango in it. It's a GREAT gluten-free choice.

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Allergy medication: cetirizine by the HealthA2Z is it gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
