Hello:

Can someone please clarify this for me?

Is Del Monte Ketchup gluten-free?

I am extremely new to all of this, and am just learning how to read ingredents and everything.

But one day, I had nothing but dry roasted peanuts, potato chip and a home-made roast with fresh potatoes, onions and carrots.

The only

Hi David,

Yes, the learning curve it very steep!

To help make it easier, here is a listing of companies who will clearly list all forms of gluten. When you buy these products, you know there is nothing hidden in "natural flavors" or "spices". These are the good guys:

ALL Del Monte Tomatoes & Tomato Products are gluten free (BUT Del Monte Spaghetti Sauce Flavored with Meat)

It took me a while to know the difference between unhealed and a glutening. Anything I ate was a problem for a month or so. It's also recommended to give dairy a break until some healing can take place.

This is the greatest site for information around. Hope this was helpful.

The potato chips might have been the culprit. What kind were they? Some brands are notorious for cross contamination.

Welcome!! For the food cop, I probably wouldn't eat anything with natural flavorings without calling the company first. That's cause of my own experience. It isn't always a problem for us but sometimes it does contain gluten products which of course are natural. But that' s just me.

It could have been something else you reacted to. What did you season your roast with? It is helpfull to jot down what you are eating in the beginning so in case you get that "feeling", you know the one I mean, you can look back & try to puzzle it together. It will help you pin down cross contamination too. Sometimes we think we are being so careful but oops! something is sneaky and gets us. I've been at it a year but this week I figured my tea was causing me to feel bad. It doesn't have any gluten on the label but I've been feeling bad since I started drinking it. I switched back to a domestic tea I know I can trust. I feel better already.

My bet for the culprit was the peanuts. Heinz ketsup is also gluten free and the distilled vinager is from corn, just in case your someone who reacts to distilled gluten grains.

I eat dry roasted peanuts no problem but last week had a reaction to Lay's potato chips. Won't ever eat those again.

      @catnapt,  Wheat germ contains high amounts of lectins which are really hard to digest and can be irritating to the digestive tract.  They can stimulate IgG antibody production as your blood test shows.   Even beans have lectins.  You've simply eaten too many lectins and irritated your digestive tract.   You may want to allow your digestive tract to rest for a week, then start on gluten in "normal" food, not in concentrated vital wheat gluten. This explains it well: Lectins, agglutinins, and their roles in autoimmune reactivities https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25599185/

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg).   Both are gluten free and free of other allergens.  I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25".  It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA.  It's a powder form of Vitamin A.  I was having trouble digesting fats at one point, but found I tolerated the powder form much better and have stuck with it since.   Tryptophan and Vitamin A help heal the intestines as well as improves skin health.  I get Dermatitis Herpetiformis and eczema flairs when my stomach is upset.  So I'm healing the outside as well as the inside.   I take one 1000 mg Tryptophan before bedtime.   With the Thiamine HCl, take 100 mg to start.  If you don't notice anything, three hours later take another. You can keep increasing your dose in this manner until you do notice improvement.  Remember not to take it in the evening so it won't keep you too energized to sleep. When I first started Thiamine HCl, taking 500 mg to 1000 mg to start was recommended.  If you've been thiamine insufficient for a while, you do notice a big difference.  It's like the start of a NASCAR race: Zoom, Zoom, turn it up!   This scared or made some people uncomfortable, but it's just your body beginning to function properly, like putting new spark plugs in your engine.  I took 1000 mg all at once without food.  It kicked in beautifully, but I got a tummy ache, so take with food.  I added in Thiamine TTFD and Benfotiamine weeks later and felt like I was Formula One racing.  So cool.  You may feel worse for a couple days as your body adjusts to having sufficient thiamine.  Feels sort of like you haven't cranked your engine for a while and it backfires and sputters, but it will settle down and start purring soon enough.  Adjust your dose to what feels right for you, increasing your dose as long as you feel improvement.  You can reach a plateau, so stay there for several days, then try bumping it up again.  If no more improvements happen, you can stay at the plateau amount and experiment with increasing your Thiamine TTFD.  It's like being your own lab rat.  LoL Yes, take one Benfotiamine at breakfast and one at lunch.  Take the B Complex at breakfast. Take the TTFD at breakfast and lunch as well.  I like to take the vitamins at the beginning of meals and the NeuroMag at the end of meals.   You may want to add in some zinc.  I take Thorne Zinc 30 mg at breakfast at the beginning of the meal.   Are you getting sufficient Omega Threes?  Our brains are made up mostly of fat.  Flaxseed oil supplements, sunflower seed oil supplements (or eat the seeds themselves) can improve that.  Cooking with extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or coconut oil is also helpful.   @Wheatwacked likes phosphotidyl choline supplements for his Omega Threes.  He's also had dramatic health improvement by supplementing thiamine.  You're doing great!  Thank you for sharing your journey with us.  This path will smooth out.  Keep going!

      good luck! vital wheat gluten made me violently ill. I will touch the stuff ever again.  
    • catnapt
      I wouldn't consider this lucky. I can NOT tolerate the symptoms. And I googled it and I was not even getting 10 grams of gluten per day and I was extremely ill. They'd have to put me in the hospital. I'm not kidding.   I will have my first appt with a GI dr on March 4th   I will not eat gluten again - at least not on purpose   they are going to have to come up with a test that doesn't require it.

      What Thiamine Hydrochloride brand do you take? Is it like the other vitamins I have added? What brand Tryptophan and amount do you take. Thanks
