Question Concerning Foods


GlutenGuy36

Has anyone eaten Nature's Path Gluten Free waffles or Aldis Turkey roast ? If you did, were you ok or were you having symptoms of being glutened. I bought some Natures Path Gluten Free waffles and some other brand of gluten free corn dogs and later had the nasty kind of D that comes with being glutened.

I tried to look up online about Natures path and find out if they use shared equipment for any of their products but I will have to call back monday. The only other things I have eaten were glutino gluten free bagels which actually taste very good (8 dollars for five),turkey lunch meat that I know is okay because I have eaten it with no problems and fruit.

So if anyone knows for certain that this stuff is safe or if you have had a bad experience with them please reply. Aldi's is a pain in the rear to try and get information out of. You can't even call the store directly. How dumb is that?

Try Pamala's Baking and Pancake Mix! I just made some pancakes with it and they were actually very good. I think next time I may try substituting some skim milk and put a tsp of the gluten-free vanilla in it. some gluten free stuff is nasty. I bought a loaf of flaxseed bread, that wasn't all that good at all! I found if i make grilled cheddar cheese sandwiches it kinda doctors the dryness of the bread.

It really ticks me off how expensive this gluten free stuff is! We are being taken advantage of for our disease we can't help we have!

You can make some mean french toast with pamela's bread mix - highly recommend it if you miss starchy breakfast foods.

I agree that gluten free processed food is pricey, but the ingredients they make it with are pricey, too. I think it less about "taking advantage of" someone with a disease, and more an issue of the bottom line. These manufacturers have to make money too, and as this issue becomes more and more prevalent, the prices will probably go down as the demand gets stronger and more competition enters the market. These are healthier foods, for the most part, and often use much higher-end ingredients.

Stick with whole foods, when you can, and find a flour mix you like and buy it in bulk. It's much more reasonable that way.

      You might look into wearing an N95 mask when others are creating baked goods with wheat flour in your environment.

      @trents thank you for that information. My parents feel that cooking flour in toaster isn't a thing as its already cooked product before made? but Airbourne particles is my fear. Like I have had symptoms from 6 meters away had to leave massive migraine.

      Yes, except for the most sensitive, cross contamination from airborne gluten should be minimal. Highly sensitive people may have nutritional deficiencies.  Many times their bodies are in a highly inflamed state from Celiac, with high levels of histamine and homocysteine.  Vitamins are needed to break down histamine released from immune cells like mast cells that get over stimulated and produce histamine at the least provocation as part of the immune response to gluten. This can last even after gluten exposure is ended.  Thiamine supplementation helps calm the mast cells.  Vitamin D helps calm the immune system.  Other B vitamins and minerals are needed to correct the nutritional deficiencies that developed while the villi were damaged and not able to absorb nutrients.  The villi need vitamins and minerals to repair themselves and grow new villi. Focus on eating a nutritional dense, low inflammation diet, like the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, and supplementing to correct dietary deficiencies.  Once your body has the vitamins and minerals needed, the body can begin healing itself.  You can have nutritional deficiencies even if blood tests say you have "normal" blood levels of vitamins.  Blood is a transport system carrying vitamins from the digestive system to organs and tissues.  Vitamins are used inside cells where they cannot be measured.   Please discuss with your doctor and dietician supplementing vitamins and minerals while trying to heal.

      Should not be a problem except for the most sensitive celiacs. The amount of gluten that would get in the air from cooking alone has got to be miniscule. I would be more concerned about cross contamination happening in other ways in a living environment where others are preparing and consuming gluten-containing foods. Thinks like shared cooking surfaces and countertops. And what about that toaster you mentioned?

      Hello, @NCalvo822, Blood tests for Celiac Disease test for antibodies our bodies make in response to gluten exposure.  These Tg IgA 2 antibodies mistakenly attack our own bodies, causing problems in organs and tissues other than just the digestive tract.  Joints can ache, thyroid problems or the pancreas can develop.  Ataxia is just one of over two hundred symptoms of Celiac Disease. Some people with Celiac Disease also make tTg IgA 6 antibodies in response to gluten exposure.  The tTg IgA 6 antibodies attack the brain, causing ataxia.  These tTg IgA 6 antibodies are also found in people with Parkinson's disease, though they may not have Celiac Disease.  First degree relatives (parents, siblings, children) of those diagnosed with Celiac should be tested as well.  Celiac is genetic.  Your mom and sister should be tested for Celiac, too!   Definitely a good idea to keep to a gluten free diet.
