I had some chips and salsa by Wild Harvest Organics today, and felt pretty awful after. They both looked safe, so I am assuming it was something else, but was wondering if anyone knew anything about these products.

I searched online and couldn't find anything.

Thanks!!

I called the distributers of Wild Harvest, and basically they took down my info and told me someone would get in touch within 72 hours. There is no gluten info on their web site..or anywhere I have tried searching.

Any info would be appreciated, and i will post what I find out when/if I do =)

I'm not sure about the chips and salsa, but I called on Sunday about the Wild Harvest Organics yogurt. I received a call from the supplier today that all of their yogurts are gluten free.

We have bought a few things of this brand. Can't remember now what they were. No problems with them, but then daughter is not celiac and has allergies, so her reactions are not necessarily the same.

RE:  wild harvest organic maple syrup is NOT gluten free.  I called the customer service number on the bottle and it linked me to albertsons corporation call center.  they called me back and said they cannot guarantee that the product was not cross contaminated in the process.  so my advice, DO NOT EAT IT.  my daughter is extremely gluten intolerant, as well as intolerant to xanthan gum and tapioca starch/flour.  also, just a side note, any product that DOES NOT state Certified gluten-free you should eat with caution.  i researched and learned that gluten free products contain 20 ppm (parts per million of gluten) and some a bit more.  however, if it is Certified gluten-free this means that the product is under 10 ppm and in some cases under 5 ppm depending on the certifying company.  this is so upsetting because you pay lots of money for gluten-free products and your still ingesting gluten! this is exactly why my daughter get sick after eating a couple servings of gluten-free prepared foods in a day... the ppm of gluten really adds up.  you don't know the amount of gluten your body can handle except trial by error, unfortunately! good luck trying to find the ppm values for your foods -- not easy, i still only found 1 list ( i think from this site).  just remember... there is a huge selling benefit to stating your product is certified gluten-free, so when a product DOES NOT do this, beware of consuming it because there is a reason why that food is NOT certified gluten-free.

      Maybe you have a low  intolerance to Wheat.   Rye, Barley and Malt are the gluten in Celiac disease.  It has always been stated Wheat and Gluten, not just a Wheat intolerance.  Barley will keep me in bed for (2) weeks.  Gut, Migrains, Brain fog, Diahrea.  It is miserable.  And when I was a toddler the doctor would give me a malt medicine because I always had Anemia and did not grow.  Boy was he off.  But at that time the US didn't know anyone about Celiac.  This was the 1940s and 50s.  I had my first episode at 9 months and did not get a diagnosis until I was 50.  My immune system was so shot before being diagnoised, so now I live with the consequences of it. I was so upset when Manufacturers didn't want to label their products so they added barley to the product.  It was mostly the cereal industry.  3 of my favorite cereals were excluded because of this. Malt gives me a bad Gut reaction.

      Thanks much Scott.  Well said, and heeded.   I don't have Celiac, which is fortunate.

      Do you have the results of your endoscopy? Did you do a celiac disease blood panel before that?  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      It is odd that your Tissue Transglutaminase (TTG) IgA level has bounced from the "inconclusive" range (7.9, 9.8) down to a negative level (5.3), only to climb back up near the positive threshold. This inconsistency, coupled with your ongoing symptoms of malabsorption and specific nutrient deficiencies, is a strong clinical indicator that warrants a more thorough investigation than a simple "satisfactory" sign-off. A negative blood test does not definitively rule out celiac disease, especially with such variable numbers and a classic symptomatic picture. You are absolutely right to seek a second opinion and push for a referral to a gastroenterologist. A biopsy remains the gold standard for a reason, and advocating for one is the most direct path to getting the answers you need to finally address the root cause of your suffering.

      There is a distinction between gluten itself and the other chemicals and processing methods involved in modern food production. Your experience in Italy and Greece, contrasted with your reactions in the U.S., provides powerful anecdotal evidence that the problem, for some people, may not be the wheat, but the additives like potassium bromate and the industrial processing it undergoes here. The point about bromines displacing iodine and disrupting thyroid function is a significant one, explaining a potential biological mechanism for why such additives could cause systemic health issues that mimic gluten sensitivity. It's both alarming and insightful to consider that the very "watchdog" agencies meant to protect us are allowing practices banned in many other developed countries. Seeking out European flour and your caution about the high-carb, potentially diabeticgenic nature of many gluten-free products are excellent practical takeaways from your research, but I just want to mention--if you have celiac disease you need to avoid all wheat, including all wheat and gluten in Europe.
