Name That Gluten!

My dd are sick today, and I'm trying to figure out just where the source of gluten came from. We've tried several new things this week, with school starting and all...and that always gets me. Anyway, here is the small list of new things we've had that may have glutened us.

Hershey's chocolate syrup

Pop Weaver microwave popcorn (from walmart)

Planters honey roasted peanuts

Dr. Pepper, cherry vanilla (we hardly ever drink soda, but I had a craving, lol)

It's been a bad week, we never eat this much new food, b/c I usually know better. Ugh, back to eating white rice and jello for a couple of days. I'm eliminating all of these things now, and my guess is the Hershey's syrup, what do you guys think?

I no longer use Hershey's Syrup, but it never glutened me.

How about the pop corn...was it labeled gluten free?

Some roasted peanuts do contain gluten, but I don't know which ones.

Planters is a Kraft brand. If there is gluten it will be clearly disclosed in the ingredient list.

Yeah, the more I think about it...I think it's the Hershey chocolate syrup. It may just be a trace amount, that has built up over the course of the week, and finally made us really sick today. Two days ago, I was getting heart palpitations, that is usually my first sign of a glutening, even before the stomach issues pop up.

My dd has been cranky and pale this week, but I just attributed it to school starting, until today. Darn, we were loving our chocolate almond milk in the morning. I bought the syrup for a special treat on the 1st day of school, and it's cheaper than buying the actual chocolate flavored almond milk. Oh well, that sure backfired on me!

I suspect it could be any or all of them! I have to be VERY careful with microwave popcorn. If the box says "manufactured in a facility that also processess......." then you have a cc problem. I wouldn't think it would be the syrup, but I can't do dairy anymore either, so it's been forever since having chocolate syrup.

We eat Hershey's chocolate syrup all the time and have never had a problem with it.

I vote for the syrup--I've reacted to it myself, and Hershey's is less than forthcoming on the source of their natural flavors. Sounds like it was a build-up of small amounts over the days.

I can relate to adding too many new things at once--that almost guarantees me a reaction.

Hope you both feel better soon :)

I doubt it is the pop weaver from Walmart. I wrote the company last month and this is the response:

We are very committed to bringing our customers the highest quality of popcorn at the most reasonable price and, we also want to produce products that meet the health concerns and needs of all of our customers. We continually search for ways to improve our products and always appreciate it when we hear from our customers! There is no wheat, barley, rye or oats gluten in any of our Pop Weaver Popcorn products or in the raw material ingredients. Thank you again for your inquiry and we hope you will continue to enjoy Pop Weaver Popcorn products. Have a good day! Shelli

Hope this helps!

ALL of these items are gluten-free. As for CC, always hard to say.

I have had Hershey twice this week with no problem at all, but everyone is different. I would think of the peanuts myself. I grabed a bag of sunflower seeds and it said right on it that they contained wheat. Go figure in sunflower seeds I never would of guessed.

      Blood Test for Celiac wheat type matters?

      Wheatwacked, are you speaking of the use of potassium bromide and and azodicarbonamide as dough modifiers being controlling factor for what? Do you refer to celiac reactions to gluten or thyroid disease, kidney disease, GI cancers?

      In Europe they have banned several dough modifiers potassium bromide and and azodicarbonamide. Both linked to cancers. Studies have linked potassium bromide to kidney, thyroid, and gastrointestinal cancers. A ban on it in goes into effect in California in 2027. I suspect this, more than a specific strain of wheat to be controlling factor. Sourdough...

      need help understanding testing result for Naked Nutrition Creatine please

      They don’t give a sample size (serving size is different from sample size) so it is hard to tell just what the result means. However, the way the result is presented does look like it is below the limit of what their test can measure, so that is good.

      Excess iodine supplements can cause significant health issues, primarily disrupting thyroid function. My daughter has issues with even small amounts of dietary iodine. While iodine is essential for thyroid hormone production, consistently consuming amounts far above the tolerable upper limit (1,100 mcg/day for adults) from high-dose supplements can trigger both hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism, worsen autoimmune thyroid diseases like Hashimoto's, and lead to goiter. Other side effects include gastrointestinal distress. The risk is highest for individuals with pre-existing thyroid conditions, and while dietary iodine rarely reaches toxic levels, unsupervised high-dose supplementation is dangerous and should only be undertaken with medical guidance to avoid serious complications. It's best to check with your doctor before supplementing iodine.

      In Europe they have banned several dough modifiers potassium bromide and and azodicarbonamide.  Both linked to cancers.  Studies have linked potassium bromide to kidney, thyroid, and gastrointestinal cancers.  A ban on it in goes into effect in California in 2027. I suspect this, more than a specific strain of wheat to be controlling factor.  Sourdough natural fermentation conditions the dough without chemicals. Iodine was used in the US as a dough modifier until the 1970s. Since then iodine intake in the US dropped 50%.  Iodine is essential for thyroid hormones.  Thyroid hormone use for hypothyroidism has doubled in the United States from 1997 to 2016.   Clinical Thyroidology® for the Public In the UK, incidently, prescriptions for the thyroid hormone levothyroxine have increased by more than 12 million in a decade.  The Royal Pharmaceutical Society's official journal Standard thyroid tests will not show insufficient iodine intake.  Iodine 24 Hour Urine Test measures iodine excretion over a full day to evaluate iodine status and thyroid health. 75 year old male.  I tried adding seaweed into my diet and did get improvement in healing, muscle tone, skin; but in was not enough and I could not sustain it in my diet at the level intake I needed.  So I supplement 600 mcg Liquid Iodine (RDA 150 to 1000 mcg) per day.  It has turbocharged my recovery from 63 years of undiagnosed celiac disease.  Improvement in healing a non-healing sebaceous cyst. brain fog, vision, hair, skin, nails. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis celiac disease experience exacerbation of the rash with iodine. The Wolff-Chaikoff Effect Crying Wolf?
