Cooking Oil Spray!

I was at the store yesterday picking up a few things and I don't know what possessed me to suddenly look at the label of my brand of cooking spray but I did. And guess what??? "May have trace amts of wheat and milk"!!!!! Again---who woulda' thunk??? THe name-brand, original Pam does not have that disclaimer. I guess I was under a rock on that one and wanted to warn anyone else that was under that rock with me!!! It may help explain some of those times when you feel like you've been poisoned but you have absolutely no idea why!

If you get one of the olive oil spritzer cans, you can do just as well as with a Pam type product withoout the chemicals.

Wait, so what cooking sprays are gluten free?

Pam seems to be.

We use PAM Original frequently, and have never had a problem.

The only problem I had with Pam is that it has soy in it and I was reacting pretty severely to it early on. Haven't felt like trying it yet but it might be a problem in early stages with anyone who seems to be sensitive to seemingly everything at first.

"may contain..." is a standard CYA warning for mixed facilities. It does NOT mean that there is gluten in there.

That said, PAM has one cooking spray, one that is dedicated to baking, introduced a year or two ago, that specifically has wheat in it, as an ingredient. (The rest don't.) Crazy! I happen to use Spectrum Organic's Canola spray.

granted, the "may contain" is as you say. But I have found FOR ME that anything that says that, IS. OFTEN in the past I haven't seen this before eating from it and then get to looking for a reason why I'm having trouble. And everytime I find that disclaimer, is a problem for me. I guess I'm VERY cross-contamination sensitive.

      Be interesting to see the effects of dairy reintroduction with gluten. As well as milk protein sensitivity in and of itself the casein part particularly has been shown to mimic gluten in about 50% of celiacs. Keep us posted!

      She has been dairy free for six years, so she’d already been dairy free for two years at her last testing and was dairy free for the entire gluten challenge this year as well (that had positive results). However, now that we’re doing another biopsy in six weeks, we decided to do everything we can to try to “see” the effects, so we decided this past week to add back in dairy temporarily for breakfast (milk and cereal combo like you said).

      Hi Christiana, Many thanks for your response.  Interestingly, I too cannot eat wheat in France without feeling effects (much less than in the US, but won't indulge nonetheless).  I also understand children are screened for celiac in Italy prior to starting their education. Wise idea as it seems my grandson has the beginning symptoms (several celiacs in his dad's family), but parents continue to think he's just being difficult.  Argh.  There's a test I took that diagnosed gluten sensitivity in 2014 via Entero Labs, and am planning on having done again.  Truth be told, I'm hoping it's the bromine/additives/preservatives as I miss breads and pastas terribly when home here in the states!  Be well and here's to our guts healing ❤️

      Lol that’s so true! Hope you get clarity, it’s tough when there’s doubt. There’s so much known about celiac disease with all the scientific research that’s been done so far yet practically and clinically there’s also so much unknown, still. Out of curiosity what’s her dairy consumption like? Even compared to early years to now? Has that changed? Calcium is dependent in the mechanism of antigen presenting cells in the gut. High calcium foods with gluten grains can initiate inflammation greater.  This is why breakfast cereals and milk combo long term can be a ticking time bomb for genetically susceptible celiacs (not a scientific statement by any means but my current personal opinion based on reasoning at present). Milk and wheat are the top culprits for food sensitivity. Especially in childhood. There are also patient cases of antibodies normalising in celiac children who had milk protein intolerance/ delayed type allergy. Some asymptomatic. There were a couple of cases of suspected celiacs that turned out to have milk protein intolerance that normalised antibodies on a gluten containing diet. Then there were others that only normalised antibodies once gluten and milk was eliminated. Milk kept the antibodies positive. Celiac disease is complicated to say the least.

      And thank you for your encouragement. I am glad that her body is doing a good job fighting it. I also just want clarity for her moving forwards. She was only 6 for the last round of testing and she's 10 now, so I'm also hoping that makes a difference. It was weird during her last round of testing though, because right before her biopsy, we'd upped her gluten intake by giving her biscuits made from straight up vital wheat gluten, and her labs actually normalized slightly (lower ttg and her ema went negative). Bodies just do weird things sometimes! lol
