I eat their donuts without problems and I am very sensitive. Are you sure your spreads were safe?

If your PB and jam were ever used by a gluten-eater, there are probably gluteny bread crumbs from the knife/spoon in them. Most people spread some PB on their bread, and then put the crumby knife back in the PB to get more, leaving crumbs in the PB.

You could have your own, CLEARLY LABELED GLUTEN-FREE PB, or ask everyone to be careful not to double-dip (but that practically never happens, everyone always forgets after 3 days).

The bread is made by Kinnikinnick. It's probably the best of the easily available commercial gluten-free breads.

Does this happen everytime you have tried the bread?

I agree with the last post on the dedicated PB and Jelly jars. My husband has one with his name on it and I have one with G F on it and sometimes put a sticker on it so it shows up on the lid (something fun haha).

I use to get that bread in the beginning when I was still learning what other ingredients and things I had a problem with. I kept feeling sick and funny in my head/head ach... Later figured out I couldn't have tapioca flour/starch. There is a possibility that you cannot tollerate one of the ingredients. Just a thought :)

Hope you figure it out and feel better.

Another possibility: what are you drinking when you eat your sandwich?

If it's milk, perhaps you need to be (at least, temporarily) dairy-free. Many of us couldn't tolerate dairy products at the beginning of a gluten-free diet, as our intestines had not yet healed (the villi, which are damaged by gluten, are what produce the lactase enzyme, that digests the lactose in dairy). Some celiacs can't ever go back to dairy; many can. I'd guess that it might have something to do with how long your intestines were being damaged by gluten, but it's probably more complicated than that.

Hey thanks for your replies! Sorry I double posted... But yeah I did you the jam that I have used on reg. bread before I went gluten free so I didnt really think about that. I drank water with the toast. Ill have to test it again sometime... to see if I have any symptoms.

well I tried some donuts from the same company this morning I only ate like 2 bits and I started getting a headache in the same place where I had a headache from the Bread. SO it must be something in there mix. that really sucks that I found something that I can eat and it jacks me up! bummer..... :angry:

Their entire company/operation is gluten-free, so it has to be something other than a gluten thing.

Good luck!

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      How do I contact someone at celiac.com concerning the cessation of my weekly e-newsletter? I had been receiving it regularly for years. When I tried to sign-up on the website, my email was not accepted. I tried again with a new email address and that was rejected as well. Thank you in advance!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.
