Healthy Choice Soups. Are They Not Okay?

Recommended Posts

jjc Contributor

I just read a post from Sept. 2008, and the poster said that all Healthy Choice soups were NOT gluten free. I was just wondering what the status on the soups are at this moment, because I'm in college right now, and have very few food options, aside from the possibility of this soup.

Thanks in advance!

I have not bought them in a while. I believe I used to buy a chicken and vegetable that was safe, but daughter didn't like it. There could be others that are okay, but we have additional allergies.

Shelton's makes a chicken and wild rice and I believe they also have a chili that is safe. Hormel chili is safe. Pacific makes some boxed soups that are safe. Amy's makes some soups that are safe.

Many of the Progresso soups are gluten-free, along with some Stagg's chili (says gluten free right on the label).

You should buy (or have your parents buy for you!) a guten-free grocery shopping guide. It will make your life WAY easier at the store. They list mainstream products (Kraft, Heinz, Kroger, Hormel, etc.) by category (soups, chips, dressings, spaghetti sauce, etc.)

In the US, I believe there are no safe Campbell's soups. I can't easily see the source of the gluten in some though, like the bean with bacon.

Healthy Choice is a ConAgra brand and they will label any gluten present. They don't have a gluten-free list so you'll have to read the labels. I believe ConAgra will also tell you if a specific product is gluten-free if you ask.

Thanks for your responses everyone! I'll be sure to check out the progresso soups when I go back home this weekend!

      thank you RMJ! That is very helpful advice. Good to know we aren’t crazy if we don’t do the endoscopy. We are going to try the gluten free and see how symptoms and levels improve.    thank you Wheatwacked (love the username lol) that is also reassuring. Thankfully she has an amazing and experienced pediatrician. And yesss I forgot to mention the poop! She has the weirdest poop issues.    How long did it take y'all to start seeing improvement in symptoms?

      My son was diagnosed when he was weaned in 1976 after several endoscopies.  Given your two year old's symptoms and your family history and your pediatrition advocating for the dx, I would agree.  Whether an endoscopy is positive or negative is irrelevant.   That may happen even with endoscopy.  Pick your doctors with that in mind. In the end you save the potential trauma of the endoscopy for your baby.   Mine also had really nasty poop.  His doctor started him on Nutramigen Infant because at the time it was the only product that was hypo allergenic and had complete nutrition. The improvement was immediate.

      So her tissue transglutaminase antibody is almost 4x the upper end of the normal range - likely a real result. The other things you can do besides an endoscopy would be: 1.  Genetic testing.  Unfortunately a large proportion of the population has genes permissive for celiac disease, but only a small proportion of those with the genes have it. With family history it is likely she has the genes. 2.  Try a gluten free diet and see if the symptoms go away AND the antibody levels return to normal. (This is what I would do). Endoscopies aren’t always accurate in patients as young as your daughter. Unfortunately, without an endoscopy, some doctor later in her life may question whether she really has celiac disease or not, and you’ll need to be a fierce mama bear to defend the diagnosis! Be sure you have a good written record of her current pediatrician’s diagnosis. Doing a gluten challenge for an endoscopy later in life could cause a very uncomfortable level of symptoms.   Having yourself, your husband and your son tested would be a great idea.

      here are the lab ranges.  Normal ranges for tissue transglutaminase are: <15.0 Antibody not detected > or = 15.0 Antibody detected normal for endomysial antibody is < 1.5. So she is barely positive but still positive.

      I have been diagnosed with coeliacs disease today after endoscopy, bloods and CT scan. I have also been diagnosed with Mesenteric Panniculitis today. Both of which I believe are autoimmune diseases. I have been told I will need a dexa scan and a repeat CT scan in 6 months. I had not even heard of Mesenteric Panniculitis till today. I don’t know much about it? Has anyone else got both of these.
