Anyone know which brand name spices are free of gluten? McCormick has 2 categories..the gourmet line and the regular red capped spices...are they all safe and free from cross contamination?

I used to buy spices in bulk at my local farmers market and they were dirt cheap, but I just dont know if they are safe

They will disclose any gluten in them. I don't know which ones do contain gluten (if any) but if it does not list it, they are gluten-free.

I've never had any problem with any of the McCormicks or the bulk spices from some of our markets here in Hawaii. These are all common spices though. Hard to say for some of the exotics unless you know your vendor and source.

good luck

All Penzi's spices are gluten-free except for 4-5 out of the thousands they carry. We buy from there all the time and they were very helpful in avoidng the few we could not have.

You have to be careful and read the ingredients. Most bottled spices contain a wheat derived substance to keep the spice from sticking or clumping int he bottle. Check out your gluten free book guides at a book store or Barnes and Nobel. That's how I learned there is wheat in spices. The wheat is under a different name of course, so the bottle isn't going to tell you if it's "Gluten free". Also learned of this in the gluten free grocery guide.

      Is it gluten?

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      Trip to Anaheim/Disney

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
