Miracle Whip And Other Vinegar-based Condiments

Hey all-- I need a little help here. Once again, the vinegar debate... Depending on what I read, some say items like A1 and miracle whip are okay b/c they are made with distilled vinegar. But I have found other sources that say do not eat either period-distilled or not b/c of gluten. What do you think?? :unsure:

Distilled vinegar is safe in my opinion. During the distillation process, the actual grain is removed.

miracle whip is fine--but dont use the miracle whip light--the last i knew it contained gluten--miracle whip mayo is fine too--and most vinegar is ok too--its a rough decision to take--sometimes i think and think and put it back--deb

I agree with celiac3270 I think it is safe when distilled. I have never had a problem with distilled vinegar either.

I think the only vinigar that can't be considered gluten free is malt vinigar.

Sorry celiac3270! I knew I was taking a gamble there but wasn't sure. I thought perhaps Peterson could be a maiden name and King a married name. Thought I'd go for it and assume away...but was wrong. Gotta give the male celiacs their respect :)

Lol :lol: ...it's fine. Peterson is my mom's maiden name, which became my nickname...I'm too young to be married, though, anyway :D . And it's a good gamble to take--there aren't many males who post here freqently....me, Richard...?

celiac3270,

Also a serious shortage of males at my support group - about 1 man for every 10 women. Are there fewer celiac males or are they just afraid of support groups!

Somewhere I heard that women are more prone to getting autoimmune disorders. I don't know the ratios for celiac. I think women tend to find support groups though.

I think they avoid anywhere they might have to show their "feelings" :P

I wonder if this would have anything to do with all of the hormones that rage through us, and especially in regards to having babies! I'm thinking of how pregnancy throws some autoimmune disorders into remission.

I've heard the same thing about women being more prone to autoimmune disorders. I think it's also that a lot of males don't care that much about their condition, so they'll just deal with it, but not care to try to learn more about it or help others who have it.......or like you said, avoid situations where you share feelings :) . I'm an exception to that, but my mom influences me more than my dad :lol:

My daughter just bought some Miracle Whip, made by Kraft. The label states it is made with modified food starch?

Let me know what you think.

Unless a Kraft label says wheat,rye,barley, or oats it is safe. It will not hide anything :D

So does that mean if Kraft states modified food starch it's ok to eat?

Thanks

yes. Modified food starch in the US is almost always corn starch, however to be safe I stick with companies such as Kraft and ConAgra that declare any wheat source on the label.

I don't have any problems with distilled vinegar, and I am an extremely sensitive celiac! LOL!!!! :D I just mean that I react to just about everything. Just last night I got accidentally "glutened" by cooking on a stove that hadn't been thoroughly cleaned after hubby made his pizza the other night and sliced it on the stove. I set my cooking spoon down in the crumbs and then continued to stir my food with it. What a dummy. I got so sick, I burst a blood vessel in my eye while I was puking and now have a lovely rash all over my face :rolleyes:

Why thank you Sally! I'm actually feeling ok right now. Just this rash on my face to remind me, and a dull ache in my belly.

      Any bad experience with King Arthur Gluten-free bread flour

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      You are right! The logo the have on their packages got me confused--it looks like they are less than 20ppm, not certified GF. Thanks for catching that! My brain also zeroed in on this "less than 10ppm" but I should have seen the rest...

      Still unsure.....

      Zinc glyconate lozenges (Cold Eeze) helps fight off viral respiratory infections by coating the mucous membrane cells to protect them from virus.  Zinc is an antiviral essential mineral. Choline deficieicy can be the cause of Non Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease.  It is estimated by some experts that less than 10% eat the minimum RDA of around 450 mg.  It has also been connected to gallbladder disease.  Brain fog and high homosystein blood level is an independant indicator of cardiovascular disease. Eggs and red meat are the primary sources.  Three eggs or 10 cups of cooked brocolli a day.  Low vitamin D is a common denominator of autoimmune disease.  Is it a contributing factor or a result? I think that low vitamin D is maybe the main contributing factor.  Low vitamin D allows the immune system to run amuck. I would like to point out the many diagnosed with Celiac Disease went through several misdiagnoses, like gall bladder disease, and were repeatedly tested negative and then one day tested positive. Regardless of your diagnosis, you should avoid gluten, you mention it in your first post : "When I eat gluten I get a lot of mucus with my stool and most of the times it’s quite thin. As soon as I take gluten away from my diet my stool becomes normal". It can take six months to several years to heal completely.  How long I believe is directly related to how quickly you identify deficiencies and correct. Essential to my recovery:  Thiamine, 10,000 IU vitamin D3 a day, maintaining 25(OH)D at 80 ng/dl (200 nmole/L), 600 mcg Liquid Iodine, Phosphatidyl Choline.  And of course: Gluten Free.

      Not all of King Arthur’s gluten free flours and baking mixes are certified gluten free. This bread flour is not.

      Bump up your thiamine dose!  You can take more if you don't feel anything after the first one.  Must needs getting to that 500mg. We need more thiamine when we're fighting an infection.  Zinc will help fight infections, too, as well as Vitamin C. They all work together. Hope you feel better!

      Inflammation and Menier’s disease link?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @MagsM, I had Meniere's.  Meniere's is caused by deficiencies in Thiamine, Niacin, and Vitamin D.  Celiac Disease causes malabsorption which affects all the essential vitamins and minerals. The B vitamins work in concert together like an orchestra.  Having a Folate deficiency suggests other B vitamin deficiencies as well.  Folate needs Pyridoxine B6 and Thiamine B1 to work properly with Cobalamine B12.  Doctors are not required to take many courses in nutrition, and often don't recognize deficiency symptoms or how to correct them.  Blood tests are not an accurate measurement of vitamin deficiencies inside cells.  Low iron correction requires copper and zinc as well as Thiamine and Riboflavin.    Yes, anemia can affect the production of antibodies and cause false negatives on tests for Celiac.  Diabetes and Thiamine deficiency can also cause false negatives.  An endoscopy with biopsy would be a more accurate method of diagnosis for you.   I studied Nutrition before earning a degree in Microbiology because I wanted to know what the vitamins were doing inside the body.  Vitamins are chemical compounds that the body cannot make, so we must get them from food and supplements.  After a few vertigo episodes and suddenly going deaf for a while, I researched and found that supplementing with  Thiamine in the form TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide), Niacin and Vitamin D resolved the issue.   Please ask your nutritionist for further vitamin deficiency tests.  A B Complex, TTFD, Vitamin D should help you recover quickly.   Keep us posted on your progress!
