Glutened By Tyson?

I ate some chicken by Tyson last night that was "100% natural." But by this afternoon it was obvious that SOMETHING has given me a reaction. That's all I can think that it might be, and when I checked the ingredients, it said it contained both broth and spices. Does anyone know if these have been stated to be gluten-free or not? I can't find anything about it anywhere online. :unsure:

Here is a Tyson post going back to last year though:

My husband and I cook the Frozen Tyson Chicken and I don't have any problems (we buy ours at WalMart or Sam's Club).

Did you add any sauces or anything to the Chicken when you made it or have any sides???

Hope you feel better

My husband who can eat anything cannot eat tyson's chicken. It is one of the few foods that make him sick. It's possible it's not a gluten reaction, but rather a reaction to whatever it is that they put in there.

Hope you feel better soon!!

I recently tried this chicken and didn't have any problems. And I'm highly sensitive to gluten.

Thanks. I tried emailing them but haven't heard back yet. It was the only thing I had eaten that I thought could be a problem. There was some Krazy Mixed Up Salt and olive oil on the chicken. From what I could tell from my research, the Krazy Mixed Up Salt is gluten-free. I also had green beans with safe margarine, real mashed potatoes with margarine and milk. I made some gluten-free cookies from a recipe, but all the ingredients were gluten-free. There is a small possibility that some CC could have occurred on the cookies from flour (pretty sure I got the rice flour out of a bin) or by a contaminated measuring cup being used in the sugar or something. I just figured it was more likely to be the chicken. I have so much to learn!

Weird. I wonder if it would cause the same type of reaction? (Bloating, nausea, abdominal pain)

The last time he ate it (unknowingly) he was home sick from work. He gets very nauseous and I believe it gives him the big D. He won't go near it. It doesn't matter if it's breaded, seasoned, plain.. all of it makes him sick. It is very weird that it bothers him, because he can literally eat almost anything.

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped". Your Serum IGA 01 (aka, "total IGA") at 245 mg/dl is within normal range, indicating you are not IGA deficient. But I also think it would be wise to take your doctor's advice about the sucraid diet and avoiding dairy . . . at least until you experience healing and your gut has had a chance to heal, which can take around two years. After that, you can experiment with adding dairy back in and monitor symptoms. By the way, if you want the protein afforded by dairy but need to avoid casein, you can do so with whey protein powder. Whey is the other major protein in dairy.

      hi, i want to say thank you to you and @trents   . after 2 phone calls to my GI, her office called me back to tell me that a blood test was “unnecessary” and that we should “follow the gold standard” and since my biopsy did not indicate celiac, to follow the no dairy and sucraid diet. i luckily have expendable income and made an appt for the labcorp blood test that day. i just got my results back and it indicates celiac disease i think 😭   im honestly happy bc now i KNOW and i can go gluten free. and i am SO MAD at this doctor for dismissing me for a simple blood test that wouldn’t have cost her anything !!!!!!!!!!! im sorry, im so emotional right now, i have been sick my whole life and never knew why, i feel so much better already   my results from labcorp:   Celiac Ab tTG TIgA w/Rflx Test Current Result and Flag Previous Result and Date Units Reference Interval t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA 01 28 High U/mL 0-3 Negative 0 - 3 Weak Positive 4 - 10 Positive >10 Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) has been identified as the endomysial antigen. Studies have demonstrated that endomysial IgA antibodies have over 99% specificity for gluten sensitive enteropathy. Immunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum 01 245 mg/dL 87-352

      Thank you this really helped.

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong.   yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.

      One doctor suggested it, but then seemed irritated when I asked follow-up questions. Oh well—
