Glue Seal On Planter's Nuts?

Here's an annoying question: does one who is very sensitive need to worry about the seal on my can of Planter's nuts? It sure looks like a glue and I wonder if it has gluten? Lately, when I open their cans I can see the sealant and it's kind of flaky.

Any thoughts are appreciated.

thank you,

lisa

Do you seem to be having CC issues? I don't know what the glue is derived from but they do now make a nut mix with rolled oats. I personally don't tolerate Planters nuts, I am fine with the gluten-free nuts that Wegmans puts out so I know it is not a general nut issue.

Lisa,

I would think it highly unlikely that Planters woud use one of the top 8 allergens on their product. But, I don't have a supporting link for my thoughts.

Thank you, Lisa and Ravenwoodglass,

Yes, I am having an ongoing issue now for about 3 weeks after feeling so well for so long! I haven't had any trouble with Planter's and I've been eating them daily for over a year. It's probably something else, but, if I get a minute, I'll call them and report back.

Take care,

lisa

If you eat them daily perhaps you might want to stop for a couple of weeks, see if things resolve and then add them back in and see what happens. Go over everything that may have changed in the last 3 or 4 weeks, are you using a different shampoo or conditioner, soap, lotion, have you been working on art projects, have you got pets eating gluten food, if you take scripts did you get a refill of anything, binders can change and on generic drugs they can change at any time with no notice, any thing that may be different. Sometimes it isn't always something we eat and sometimes it isn't always gluten. That said most of us do recognize a glutening since for many it comes with such a distinct pattern of symptoms. It can be hard though to figure out what is getting us.

Thanks, Ravenwoodglass!

Yes, I know, it can be so hard to figure out. Over the years I've learned to take the saying "If you hear hoofbeats, think horses" seriously when it comes to gluten because my reactions are so specific. I easily distinguish them from an IBSish reaction. That said, I now include the notion of "if it isn't gluten,it's something that acts exactly like it."

The only new thing is this little goober, black lab but we've now gotten the food down to gluten-free, although I'll go back and check that Suave and Fructis shampoo is gluten-free still. And Tom's of Maine toothpaste (now bought out by Colgate- boo hoo).

Gluten is a bit of a wild card in my room at school where I work with kids diagnosed with emotional disabilities and behavioral issues. They all protect me, but it can become a bit of a gluten-fest in there sometimes...sigh.

Thanks for all your help!

Lisa,

Just a thought.....I was sure I was feeding my dog a gluten-free dog food. We're using California Naturals Lamb and Rice formula. I verified with the company that their ingredients are gluten-free. But, when I tested it using the ELISA EZ Gluten test, it came back positive. Hmmm. I called the company again and turns out it's manufactured on lines shared with gluten. I'm guessing this is pretty common with dog foods.

So, now I'm searching for a guaranteed gluten-free dog food. If anyone knows of one, I'd love to hear! My pup LOVES to lick. And, he LOVES to play with his slobbered up toys. I'm trying Natural Balance next. I talked to them and they say they thoroughly sterilize their lines before running their allergen free formulas. We'll see.

Cheers,

Jill

I use Orijen which is totally grain free and have also used Innova Evo. My pets seem to thrive on the grain free foods and even though they do seem expensive at first I've found they don't eat as much. It seems to satisfy their hunger better.

Thanks, Jill- hmmm, as I suspected. And his slobber is all over everything!

      I have taken the vitamins for a week. Haven't noticed any major changes but I will give it more time to see.

      @Charlie1946,  Sorry I sidetracked your thread a bit.  Apologies. Proton pump inhibitors, like Omeprazole, change the pH in our gastrointestinal systems which allows opportunistic microbes to move in and take over.  Have you been checked for SIBO?  There's a significant link between length of Omeprazole use and SIBO.  I had SIBO, thrush (Candida) and lichen planus and other problems while I was on Omeprazole.  I had to stop taking it.  It was a horrible time, so I understand how painful and frustrating it is.   You change your microbiome (the bacteria and microbes living inside you) by changing what you eat.  They eat what you eat.  Change the menu and you get different customers.   I changed my diet.  I cut out dairy because I was reacting to the casein and lactose.  I cut out all processed foods and most carbohydrates. I ate meat and veggies mostly, some fruit like apples and mandarin oranges.  By cutting out all the excess carbohydrates, lactose, and empty carbs in processed gluten-free foods, the opportunistic microbes get starved out.  SIBO bacteria send chemical messages to our brains demanding more carbs, so be prepared for carb cravings, but don't let the microbiome control you!   The skin and digestive system is continuous.  The health of our outside skin reflects the health of our gastrointestinal system.  Essential B vitamins, like Thiamine B 1 and especially Niacin B 3, are needed to repair intestinal damage and keep bad bacteria in check.  Niacin helps improve not only the intestinal tract, but also the skin.  Sebaceous Hyperplasia is linked to being low in Niacin B 3.  Lichen Planus is treated with Niacinamide, a form of Niacin B 3.   Vitamins are chemical compounds that our bodies cannot make.  We must get them from our food.  If our food isn't digested well (low stomach acid from Omeprazole causes poor digestion), then vitamins aren't released well.  Plus there's a layer of SIBO bacteria absorbing our vitamins first between the food we've eaten and our inflamed and damaged villi that may have difficulty absorbing the vitamins.  So, taking vitamin supplements is a way to boost absorption of essential nutrients that will allow the body to fight off the microbes, repair and heal.   Doctors are taught in medical learning institutions funded by pharmaceutical companies.  The importance of nutrition is downplayed and called old fashioned.  Doctors are taught we have plenty to eat, so no one gets nutritional deficiency diseases anymore.  But we do, as people with Celiac disease, with impaired absorption.  Nutritional needs need to be addressed first with us.  Vitamins cannot be patented because they are natural substances.  But pharmaceutical drugs can be.  There's more money to be made selling pharmaceutical drugs than vitamins.   Makes me wonder how much illness could be prevented if people were screened for Celiac disease much earlier in life, instead of after they've been ill and medicated for years.   Talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing essential vitamins and minerals.   Interesting Reading: The Duration of Proton Pump Inhibitor Therapy and the Risk of Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12250812/#:~:text=The long-term use of,overgrowth dynamics is less clear.

      My sebaceous hyperplasia and thrush disappeared when I stopped all dairy.

      @knitty kitty Thank you so much for all that information! I will be sure to check it out and ask my doctor.  I am just at a loss, I am on my 2nd round of miracle mouthwash and I brush and scrape my tongue and (sorry this is gross) it's still coated in the middle

      Traditional brown rice vinegars are made by fermenting brown rice and water with koji (Kōji 麹). The gluten risk comes from the method of preparing the koji: rice, wheat or barley may be used. Regardless of the starting grain, "koji" typically will be listed as an ingredient, and that term alone does not indicate gluten status. I called Eden Foods regarding their product "Organic Brown Rice Vinegar" (product of Japan) to ask how their product is made. They gave me a clear answer that they >do< use rice and they >do not< use wheat or barley in preparing their koji. FWIW, the product itself does not contain any labeling about gluten, gluten risk, or gluten safety. Based on Eden's statement, I am going to trust that this product is gluten safe and use it.
