Just wanted to let everyone know that I just got off the phone with Pinnacle Foods Group -- the company that makes Log Cabin and all Log Cabin syrups are now gluten free! I called because I wanted to check on their Country Kitchen brand, which I have been searching for since going gluten free a year ago and finally found it. They told me that ALL Log Cabin syrups including Country Kitchen are now gluten free. Here is their phone number if anyone wants it 973-541-6620. So now I'm taking back the Country Kitchen and getting the regular Log Cabin! :wub: Woohoo!!!

Thanks for the info. Pure maple syrup is also gluten-free and since I avoid HFCS is the way I go.

If it was anything, it was barley (I know I never saw wheat listed) . . . it might have been just a manufacturing/cc/shared-line type issue that the manufacturer was well aware of and didn't want to cause issues for anyone. I know that the Log Cabin Country Kitchen was always OK . . . but it wasn't always the easiet to find.

I love pure maple syrup . . . but just can't get the kids to go for it.

When I first contacted Log Cabin a couple of weeks ago I was told that their syrups were gluten free.

But then I sent another email asking more specific questions about ingredients being derived from barely, wheat, etc. and received a more thorough answer.

I was told that all the Log Cabin syrups were gluten free EXCEPT the sugar free syrup. I believe the ingredient was barley.

Thanks for catching that Carrotcake! I missed that one.

Ironically my kids LOVE the pure maple -- it's just so expensive and they go through it like wildfire -- I get a huge one at Costco! I grew up on Log Cabin -- so I have missed it tremendously!!! The maple is hard to get used to once you're hooked on that corn syrup junk! :P Have to check on Mrs. Butterworths next! It is also made by Pinnacle. It's my second favorite after Log Cabin.

The ingredient before they went gluten-free was barley.

This isn't about Log Cabin, but I do have a few kinds of syrup (besides real maple syrup) here.

One, Great Value (walmart) natural & artificial Butter flavored pancake & waffle syrup. Personally, I don't like it, and don't eat it. I only have it because my son doesn't like mine, he likes butter flavored, and said he didn't like Mrs. Buttersworth. Anyways, it doesn't list any wheat ingredients (although it does have caramel coloring, which some people seem to be worried about). It does say: Allergy warning - manufactured in a facility that processes milk, wheat, soybeans.

My longtime favorite syrup is Griffin's Original Syrup (not Griffin's pancake & waffle syrup). It's the only syrup that doesn't contain high fructose corn syrup (talking about regular syrups, not health food store brands or real maple syrup). I've never liked HFCS, not for any health reasons, but because it gives a "flat" taste to products when used instead of good old fashioned sugar. All the reasons for using HFCS are for the benefits of the manufacturers, processers, corn growers, lobbyists, and politicians. There are no benefits for us, the consumers, in either taste or costs (we could get cheap sugar without high tarriffs or the Cuban embargo). Funny how politics and agriculture have always been symbiotic. Don't get me started.

I've never been able to get used to real maple syrup. I like the taste, but it's just too darn thin. If they would thicken it up some, it'd be perfect.

Lately though, I've started to really like the agave nectar. I even prefer it over my Griffins Original syrup. It isn't cheap though. I'm using Wholesome Sweeteners Organic Raw Blue Agave nectar. It's dark, but mild tasting. Very good IMO.

I don't care for maple syrup much, the real stuff or the fake stuff. It's all a bit sweet for me... I like the Agave Nectar, though, for pancakes.

I bought a Maple/Agave Syrup blend at Trader Joe's. I'm sure you could try your own mixture to thicken up the pure maple syrup, or just buy it if you have one near you. My son LOVES it!!

Wow, I didn't know there was such a thing. We don't have Trader Joes here in Texas. I have made my own mix like that and it was really good.

Another good thing about agave nectar, it dissolves very well even in cold milk or margaritas. No more gritty sugar on the bottom of your cerial bowl.

      Basic metabolic panel results - more flags

      Thank you @trents for letting me know you experience something similar thanks @knitty kitty for your response and resources.  I will be following up with my doctor about these results and I’ll read the articles you sent. Thanks - I really appreciate you all.

      You're right, doctors usually only test Vitamin D and B12.  Both are really important, but they're not good indicators of deficiencies in the other B vitamins.  Our bodies are able to store Vitamin B12 and Vitamin D in the liver for up to a year or longer.  The other B vitamins can only be stored for much shorter periods of time.  Pyridoxine B 6 can be stored for several months, but the others only a month or two at the longest.  Thiamine stores can be depleted in as little as three days.  There's no correlation between B12 levels and the other B vitamins' levels.  Blood tests can't measure the amount of vitamins stored inside cells where they are used.  There's disagreement as to what optimal vitamin levels are.  The Recommended Daily Allowance is based on the minimum daily amount needed to prevent disease set back in the forties when people ate a totally different diet and gruesome experiments were done on people.  Folate  requirements had to be updated in the nineties after spina bifida increased and synthetic folic acid was mandated to be added to grain products.  Vitamin D requirements have been updated only in the past few years.   Doctors aren't required to take as many hours of nutritional education as in the past.  They're educated in learning institutions funded by pharmaceutical corporations.  Natural substances like vitamins can't be patented, so there's more money to be made prescribing pharmaceuticals than vitamins.   Also, look into the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, developed by Dr. Sarah Ballantyne, a Celiac herself.  Her book The Paleo Approach has been most helpful to me.  You're very welcome.  I'm glad I can help you around some stumbling blocks while on this journey.    Keep me posted on your progress!  Best wishes!

      So interesting that you stated you had sub clinical vitamin deficiencies. When I was first diagnosed with celiac disease (silent), the vitamin levels my doctor did test for were mostly within normal range (lower end) with the exception of vitamin D. I believe he tested D, B12, magnesium, and iron.  I wondered how it was possible that I had celiac disease without being deficient in everything!  I’m wondering now if I have subclinical vitamin deficiencies as well, because even though I remain gluten free, I struggle with insomnia, low energy, body aches, etc.  It’s truly frustrating when you stay true to the gluten-free diet, yet feel fatigued most days. I’ll definitely try the B-complex, and the Benfotiamine again, and will keep you posted. Thanks once again!

      Has anyone had terrible TMJ/ Jaw Pain from undiagnosed Celiac?

      Segments of the protein Casein are the same as segments of the protein strands of gluten, the 33-mer segment.   The cow's body builds that Casein protein.  It doesn't come from wheat.   Casein can trigger the same reaction as being exposed to gluten in some people.   This is not a dairy allergy (IGE mediated response).  It is not lactose intolerance.
