Where To Buy gluten-free Soy Sauce? (Canada)

Hi,

I live in downtown Toronto and haven't been able to find a gluten-free soy sauce. Any advice? It's the one thing I'm missing!

Also, are there any support groups in downtown Toronto? I'm newly diagnosed and still trying to figure everything out!

Thanks!

Hi Katie,

I recently contacted the makers of VH and their soy sauce is gluten free. Another is BRAGG. It is much more expensive, but it is so delicious.

I'll second the suggestion of VH. It is widely available in Canadian grocery stores.

VH is a Con Agra brand, so all you have to do is read the label. Any gluten will be clearly disclosed. Most VH sauces are gluten-free.

Thanks! Having trouble getting used to reading labels and sometimes it's so obvious!

Hi. I like Ohsawa Tamari Soy Sauce (it's gluten-free and organic). It is more tangy and less salty than traditional soy sauces--great for marinades. I don't know if you can get it in Canada (I'm from Detroit).

Tamari soy sauce is GREAT. I live in Mississauga and I found it at Loblaws in the gluten free/organic section.

I use VH as well...out here in BC. I have tried Bragg's too but VH is easily at least half the price...never had a problem.

I personally use Braggs; I have high blood pressure so it's lower in salt than in other brands.

I use San-J Wheat-Free Light Tamari. It's way cheaper than some other wheat free tamari and I really like it. I think it tastes a lot like Yamasa which used to be my favourite soy sauce.

I'm on Vancouver Island and I have bought it at Fairway (which I think is local) and Save-On Foods (Overwaitea).

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶
