Glutino Products : Reaction?


raisin

Recommended Posts

It seems like every time I eat a seemingly-safe Glutino brand item, i start feeling sick. Their bread, cereal, and everything else sets me off. They have soy in many of their products, but I don't buy those, and I don't react to trace amounts of dairy so it's unlikely for soy.

Does anyone else have a reaction to their products? What causes the reaction?

I've never had a problem with Glutino products. Although they are not my favorites it's often all we can get in Hawaii.

Have you made sure there are no cross contamination issues with ovens or toasters?

Yes, I have a 100% gluten-free kitchen, even my paper towels are gluten-free. There is no chance for CC in my toaster or oven, and their cereal also makes me feel bad.

We have been using many Glutino products for years now, and I never have had a problem with any of them.

You might want to check their allergen chart and see if you can find a pattern. You might be sensitive to one of the ingredients. Open Original Shared Link

Thank you, but that was the first thing I checked, and it was not the problem.

Is it possible that you are sensitive to corn / cornstarch? Glutino bagels and all of their bakery products contain corn in some form. Corn gives me a very similar reaction to glutening (not always digestive issues), so in the beginning of my gluten-free diet I thought I was getting glutened a lot, until I excluded corn from my diet.

Someone suggested that to me months ago, when I first noticed reactions to Glutino products, but I am positive corn does not bother me; I can eat it in any form, even bake things from corn flour myself. I'm also not allergic to rice, and I am not positive I have a soy allergy (just avoid it to be safe).

A shot in the dark, but what about xantham or guar gums? It took me months to finally nail down that xantham gum is a problem for me.

I don't react to Bob's Red Mill gluten-free corn muffin mix, which contains that, so couldn't be. :o

This is my least favorite answer - you may just not know what or why.

There is one brand of gluten free products that I repeatedly got sick from, even though everyone else did fine, and their products were truly gluten free. I was never able to isolate the ingredient, as I ate other products with those ingredients, and was perfectly fine.

I have issues with a particular ice cream brand - all of them - but its not gluten.

These are both brands that don't regularly have complaints. Interestingly, some of the companies that people often have issues with - I never do. :lol:

Still don't know what it is - I just had to quit eating those products/brands.

Sadly, I think you must be right.

I can't think of any explanation. I even emailed the,m to be sure they are a genuinely gluten-free dedicated line. :o Guess I just can't have Glutino.

Not just a dedicated line, but the entire plant is gluten-free. I have met the owner and president, Steven Singer (ssinger at glutino.com), and he is dedicated to serving us, and to getting his products into mainstream grocery stores.

I don't know the answer, but if those products don't agree with you, then don't eat them.

I'm so glad it's not just me! Fairly recently, I started to notice I would be horribly sick in the morning after eating a bagel for breakfast. I would be even more sick after I'd had one for dinner and then again for breakfast (I tend to eat a lot of the same things). At first it was a fairly mild nausea and I chalked it up to my Celiac morning sickness (which has not gone away despite the diet, to my chagrin). But when it went from mild nausea to painful cramping, I knew it must have been something I'd eaten. I noticed the symptom was a lot like when I'd eat home-made chocolate chip cookies. Those are gluten-free!

A poster above suggested Xanthan Gum as the culprit. I do use Xanthan Gum in my chocolate chip cookies, but my mother also uses it in her chocolate cake, and I use it in oatmeal cookies - so far no reaction.

I don't know what the deal is, but I had to give up all my cinnamon/sugar breakfast bagels to my mother who can tolerate them.

I love the taste of the Glutino crackers, but they don't seem to agree with me. <_<

I believe I've been reacting to Glutino pop tarts. I get panicked within an hour of eating them.

      Welcome to the forum, @McKinleyWY, For a genetic test, you don't have to eat gluten, but this will only show if you have the genes necessary for the development of Celiac disease.  It will not show if you have active Celiac disease.   Eating gluten stimulates the production of antibodies against gluten which mistakenly attack our own bodies.  The antibodies are produced in the small intestines.  Three grams of gluten are enough to make you feel sick and ramp up anti-gluten antibody production and inflammation for two years afterwards.  However, TEN grams of gluten or more per day for two weeks is required to stimulate anti-gluten antibodies' production enough so that the anti-gluten antibodies move out of the intestines and into the bloodstream where they can be measured in blood tests.  This level of anti-gluten antibodies also causes measurable damage to the lining of the intestines as seen on biopsy samples taken during an endoscopy (the "gold standard" of Celiac diagnosis).   Since you have been experimenting with whole wheat bread in the past year or so, possibly getting cross contaminated in a mixed household, and your immune system is still so sensitized to gluten consumption, you may want to go ahead with the gluten challenge.   It can take two years absolutely gluten free for the immune system to quit reacting to gluten exposure.   Avoiding gluten most if the time, but then experimenting with whole wheat bread is a great way to keep your body in a state of inflammation and illness.  A diagnosis would help you stop playing Russian roulette with your and your children's health.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @McKinleyWY! There currently is no testing for celiac disease that does not require you to have been consuming generous amounts of gluten (at least 10g daily, about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for at least two weeks and, to be certain of accurate testing, longer than that. This applies to both phases of testing, the blood antibody tests and the endoscopy with biopsy.  There is the option of genetic testing to see if you have one or both of the two genes known to provide the potential to develop celiac disease. It is not really a diagnostic measure, however, as 30-40% of the general population has one or both of these genes whereas only about 1% of the general population actually develops celiac disease. But genetic testing is valuable as a rule out measure. If you don't have either of the genes, it is highly unlikely that you can have celiac disease. Having said all that, even if you don't have celiac disease you can have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms as celiac disease but does not involve and autoimmune reaction that damages the lining of the small bowel as does celiac disease. Both conditions call for the complete elimination of gluten from the diet. I hope this brings some clarity to your questions.

      Hello all, I was diagnosed at the age of 2 as being allergic to yeast.  All my life I have avoided bread and most products containing enriched flour as they  contain yeast (when making the man made vitamins to add back in to the flour).  Within the last year or so, we discovered that even whole wheat products bother me but strangely enough I can eat gluten free bread with yeast and have no reactions.  Obviously, we have come to believe the issue is gluten not yeast.  Times continues to reinforce this as we are transitioning to a gluten free home and family.  I become quite ill when I consume even the smallest amount of gluten. How will my not having consumed breads/yeast/gluten for the better part of decades impact a biopsy or blood work?  I would love to know if it is a gluten intolerance or a genetic issue for family members but unsure of the results given my history of limited gluten intake.   I appreciate the input from those who have gone before me in experience and knowledge. Thank you all!

      I know what you mean. When I get glutened I have severe gut cramps and throw up for 2-3 hr. and then have diarrhea for another several hours. Avoid eating out if at all possible. It is the number one source of gluten contamination for us celiacs. When you are forced to eat out at a new restaurant that you are not sure is safe, try to order things that you can be sure will not get cross contaminated like a boiled egg, baked potatos, steamed vegies, fresh fruit. Yes, I know that doesn't sound as appetizing as pizza or a burger and fries but your health is at stake. I also realize that as a 14 year old you don't have a lot of control over where you eat out because you are tagging along with others or adults are paying for it. Do you have support from your parents concerning your need to eat gluten free? Do you believe they have a good understanding of the many places gluten can show up in the food supply?

      Okay went online to check green mountain k cups .It was said that the regular coffees are fine but they couldn’t guarantee cross contamination.with the flavors. im trying to figure out since I eliminated the suyrup so far so good.
