"The gluten free certfication organization"

The ingredients inlude oat fiber -- I cannot handle oats without getting dh or the big D.

Not that company, but several others...I have to read everything since I am also oat and soy "intolerant". Even if it is a brand I am get all the time I still read ingredients!

I eat the chips occasionally BUT I don't eat the ones with oat fiber. Some of us tolerate gluten free oats but some of us don't. I am one who avoids oats. I eat the Black Olive and when I can find them the Chocolate ones.

I've tried the olive ones, sweet potato, buffalo, and multigrain...with no bad effects. Love the olive ones...

Interesting that these companies can loudly proclaim gluten free then stick a ton of oat fiber in things without any qualifications on the labels.

DO you know

"The gluten free certfication organization"

why would they certify something with oat without some sort of label explanation?

Oats are considered to be gluten free. It is the processing that so heavily contaminates most oats that makes them something to avoid. Certified gluten free oats are grown and processed in a way that CC is prevented. That said there are some of us who will react to even for sure certified gluten-free oats. No way of knowing if you are one of those.

I ate a lot of the cinnamon flavored ones for New Year's Eve and reacted poorly to them.

And before you go, oh, how do you know ? I know, because I ate most of the bag that evening, and nothing else weird or different at all that day. And I had club soda/tonic water with a lime twist that evening. Sorry to be so boring!

The ingredients are Stone Ground Corn, High Oleic Sunflower and/or Safflower Oil, Evaporated Cane Juice, Cinnamon, Corn Bran, Sea Salt

I thought I was okay with these ingredients. I eat corn, sunflower seeds if they are plain, cinnamon, and salt by itself. Safflower Oil ?

That was the 2nd time I'd reacted to a commercially made gluten free chip (the other time was to one from a brand I eat the rice cakes from all the time, which also surprised me. Nothing on the label could be readily identified as the culprit. My spouse was so proud of himself for picking these out at the store for me. I had him eat the rest of them.

I've given up on those fried commercial types of gluten chips and am sticking to a plain baked rice cracker for now or something that I make.

Maybe my bag was oat contaminated. That would explain a lot.

I was bummed, because they tasted good.

I may try these things since i can handle the bobs gluten free oats but have tried other things

that said gluten free but had oat bran and I was very very sorry.

Guess it depends on how much of chance I feel like taking -- if any.

I guess have little faith in labeling and certification processes since I have to deal with things that are often market USDA organic and are not.

I have had the sweet potato chips several times with no problems. I do have a problem with oats and I did not know the whole grain variety had oats until after I ate them and got really sick.. I will stick with the sweet potato chips!

      Headaches / Migraines and Hypoglycaemia

      By trents · Posted

      My migraines generally have their onset during the early morning hours as well. Presently, I am under siege with them, having headaches all but two days so far this month. I have looked at all the things reported to be common triggers (foods, sleep patterns, weather patterns, stress, etc.). Every time I think I start to see a pattern it proves not to pan out in the long run. I'm not sure it's any one thing but may, instead, be a combination of things that coalesce at certain times. It's very frustrating. The medication (sumatriptan or "Imatrix") is effective and is the only thing that will quell the pain. NSAIDs, Tylenol, even hydrocodone doesn't touch it. But they only give you 9 does of sumatriptan a month. And it doesn't help that medical science doesn't really know what causes migraines. They know some things about it but the root cause is still a mystery.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Just a gluten free diet is not enough.  Now you have to identify and replenish your malnutrition.  Celiac disease is co-morbid with malabsorption syndrome.  Low vitamin D, Low Thiamine caused Gastointeston Beriberi, low choline, low iodine are common the general population, and in newly diagnosed Celiacs in the western culture its is more likely.  It takes time to heal and you need to focus on vitamins and minerals.  Gluten free foods are not fortified like regular processed foods.

      Headaches / Migraines and Hypoglycaemia

      By Sarah Grace · Posted

      Dear Kitty Since March I have been following your recommendations regarding vitamins to assist with various issues that I have been experiencing.  To recap, I am aged 68 and was late diagnosed with Celiac about 12 years ago.  I had been experiencing terrible early morning headaches which I had self diagnosed as hypoglycaemia.  I also mentioned that I had issues with insomnia, vertigo and brain fog.   It's now one year since I started on the Benfotiamine 600 mg/day.  I am still experiencing the hypoglycaemia and it's not really possible to say for sure whether the Benfotiamine is helpful.  In March this year, I added B-Complex Thiamine Hydrochloride and Magnesium L-Threonate on a daily basis, and I am now confident to report that the insomnia and vertigo and brain fog have all improved!!  So, very many thanks for your very helpful advice. I am now less confident that the early morning headaches are caused by hypoglycaemia, as even foods with a zero a GI rating (cheese, nuts, etc) can cause really server headaches, which sometimes require migraine medication in order to get rid off.  If you are able to suggest any other treatment I would definitely give it a try, as these headaches are a terrible burden.  Doctors in the UK have very limited knowledge concerning dietary issues, and I do not know how to get reliable advice from them. Best regards,

      @rei.b,  I understand how frustrating starting a new way of eating can be.  I tried all sorts of gluten-free processed foods and just kept feeling worse.  My health didn't improve until I started the low histamine AIP diet.  It makes a big difference.   Gluten fits into opioid receptors in our bodies.  So, removing gluten can cause withdrawal symptoms and reveals the underlying discomfort.  SIBO can cause digestive symptoms.  SIBO can prevent vitamins from being absorbed by the intestines.  Thiamine insufficiency causes Gastrointestinal Beriberi (bloating, abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea or constipation).  Thiamine is the B vitamin that runs out first because it can only be stored for two weeks.  We need more thiamine when we're sick or under emotional stress.  Gastric Beriberi is under recognised by doctors.  An Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test is more accurate than a blood test for thiamine deficiency, but the best way to see if you're low in thiamine is to take it and look for health improvement.  Don't take Thiamine Mononitrate because the body can't utilize it well.  Try Benfotiamine.  Thiamine is water soluble, nontoxic and safe even at high doses.  I thought it was crazy, too, but simple vitamins and minerals are important.  The eight B vitamins work together, so a B Complex, Benfotiamine,  magnesium and Vitamin D really helped get my body to start healing, along with the AIP diet.  Once you heal, you add foods back in, so the AIP diet is worth doing for a few months. I do hope you'll consider the AIP diet and Benfotiamine.
