gluten-free Chicken Or Veggie Broth/cubes Canada

I really want to make cream of broccoli soup but need to find a gluten-free chicken broth or the bouillon cubes. Are there any common brands out there that are actually gluten-free?? I've called Campbell's and their broths are not gluten-free. If not what are some brands of broths or cubes sold as gluten-free that I could find in the health food store maybe.

Thanks,

Kathy

Knorr makes bouillon in several forms. They will clearly disclose any gluten source in the ingredient list. Their brands include Bovril. If I recall correctly, the Bovril powdered beef and chicken are both gluten-free, but the cubes are not (gluten is what binds the cubes together). We use Bovril beef powder regularly, but I don't have a package of chicken in the house to check the ingredients.

Thanks Paul. I looked on the KNORR website and I see OXO listed. Do you know off hand if those OXO packets are gluten-free?

Also, when I looked at all the ready to serve Tetra packs of any manufacturers Chicken Broth they all looked fine to me. But when I called, none of them are gluten-free. What is in them that is making them glutened? Just curious.

Is Herb-Ox brand available in Canada? Their beef, chicken, vegetable, and garlic chicken granules and cubes are gluten-free. I use the Herb-Ox chicken cubes all the time.

I checked the ingredients and OXO chicken cubes are not gluten free

I don't know if these are in Canada but: Progresso is making broths and soups that are labelled gluten-free. Kitchen Basics (in a box) puts gluten-free on the box.

Hey to everyone. I haven't had time to come to the forum for quite a while but just happened to see this question.

We sell and use 2 great gluten-free broths at our store but they should be widely available in most locations.

Pacific Foods offers regular and low sodium organic broths and the Imagine low sodium veg broth is also commonly available. At least in Ontario.

I like to use "clean" broths instead of the standard high salt cubes but everyone has their own preference.

Do not be concerned that the labels do not read gluten-free. I have checked with both companies and my suppliers just to be sure and safe. They have assured me that they are both gluten-free. We have used them for quite a while and we have not had any reports to the contrary. B/C both companies are out of the states there are some weird labeling laws here in Canada that prevent some products from being labeled gluten-free and these may be one of those situations.

hope this helps

I use Pacific Organic chicken and beef broth. It is labeled gluten free and is available in our regular grocery stores in New England. Swanson is also OK. The ones that aren't state "added wheat gluten" on the label.

I think it's Pacific I buy @ Costco in a case of 6 - it is labelled gluten-free on the box. I always get it mixed up with Imagine @ other stores because the labels are pretty similar - good to know that both are safe (I am in BC).

Pacific Foods does have a 6-pack of the Chicken Broth at Costco. Some Sobeys stores have the Chicken Broth and Vegetable Broth. I've even see a gluten-free Chicken Broth at Dollarama (can't remember the name though).

      I agree, it so often overlooked!

      Celiac Disease and Skin Disorders: Exploring a Genetic Connection

      Maybe they can attribute certain skin conditions to either being susceptible to getting Celiac......or the other way around....but I have to ask if certain people are prone to Celiac because of genetics and some people aren't. It's kind of the same thing as what came first.....the chicken or the egg.?

      @xxnonamexx, There's labeling on those Trubar gluten free high fiber protein bars that say: "Manufactured in a facility that also processes peanuts, milk, soy, fish, WHEAT, sesame, and other tree nuts." You may want to avoid products made in shared facilities. If you are trying to add more fiber to your diet to ease constipation, considering...

      Welcome to celiac.com @sha1091a! Your experience is a very common one. Celiac disease is one the most underdiagnosed and misdiagnosed medical conditions out there. The reasons are numerous. One key one is that its symptoms mimic so many other diseases. Another is ignorance on the part of the medical community with regard to the range of symptoms that celiac...

      I agree, it so often overlooked! I live in the UK and I have often wondered why doctors are so reluctant to at least exclude it - my thoughts are perhaps the particular tests are expensive for the NHS, so therefore saved for people with 'obvious' symptoms.  I was diagnosed in 2013 and was told immediately that my parents, sibling and children should be checked.  My parents' GP to this day has not put forward my father for testing, and my mother was never tested in her lifetime, despite the fact that they both have some interesting symptoms/family history that reflect they might have coeliac disease (Dad - extreme bloating, and his Mum clearly had autoimmune issues, albeit undiagnosed as such; Mum - osteoporosis, anxiety).  I am now my father' legal guardian and suspecting my parents may have forgotten to ask their GP for a test (which is entirely possible!) I put it to his last GP that he ought to be tested.  He looked at Dad's blood results and purely because he was not anemic said he wasn't a coeliac.  Hopefully as the awareness of Coeliac Disease spreads among the general public, people will be able to advocate for themselves.  It is hard because in the UK the NHS is very stretched, but the fallout from not being diagnosed in a timely fashion will only cost the NHS more money. Interestingly, a complete aside, I met someone recently whose son was diagnosed (I think she said he was 8).  At a recent birthday party with 8 guests, 4 boys out of the 8 had received diagnosis of Coeliac Disease, which is an astounding statistic  As far as I know, though, they had all had obvious gastric symptoms leading to their NHS diagnosis.  In my own case I had  acute onset anxiety, hypnopompic hallucinations (vivid hallucinations upon waking),  odd liver function, anxiety, headaches, ulcers and low iron but it wasn't until the gastric symptoms hit me that a GP thought to do coeliac testing, and my numbers were through the roof.  As @trents says, by the grace of God I was diagnosed, and the diet has pretty much dealt with most of those symptoms.  I have much to be grateful for.

You may want to avoid products made in shared facilities.   If you are trying to add more fiber to your diet to ease constipation, considering eating more leafy green vegetables and cruciferous vegetables.  Not only are these high in fiber, they also are good sources of magnesium.  Many newly diagnosed are low in magnesium and B vitamins and suffer with constipation.  Thiamine Vitamin B1 and magnesium work together.  Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine has been shown to improve intestinal health.  Thiamine and magnesium are important to gastrointestinal health and function.

      Welcome to celiac.com @sha1091a! Your experience is a very common one. Celiac disease is one the most underdiagnosed and misdiagnosed medical conditions out there. The reasons are numerous. One key one is that its symptoms mimic so many other diseases. Another is ignorance on the part of the medical community with regard to the range of symptoms that celiac disease can produce. Clinicians often are only looking for classic GI symptoms and are unaware of the many other subsystems in the body that can be damaged before classic GI symptoms manifest, if ever they do. Many celiacs are of the "silent" variety and have few if any GI symptoms while all along, damage is being done to their bodies. In my case, the original symptoms were elevated liver enzymes which I endured for 13 years before I was diagnosed with celiac disease. By the grace of God my liver was not destroyed. It is common for the onset of the disease to happen 10 years before you ever get a diagnosis. Thankfully, that is slowly changing as there has developed more awareness on the part of both the medical community and the public in the past 20 years or so. Blessings!

      Dizziness after eating green beans?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @EndlessSummer, You said you had an allergy to trees.  People with Birch Allergy can react to green beans (in the legume family) and other vegetables, as well as some fruits.  Look into Oral Allergy Syndrome which can occur at a higher rate in Celiac Disease.   Switching to a low histamine diet for a while can give your body time to rid itself of the extra histamine the body makes with Celiac disease and histamine consumed in the diet.   Vitamin C and the eight B vitamins are needed to help the body clear histamine.   Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?
