I added a seasoning to my food that contains MSG. I have read that this is gluten free and I have read it is not gluten free. I feel sick now but it could be totally unrelated. Its called Sabor Latino (Sazon) made by Old Mansion Foods but I cant find anything about it. Any help.

All ingredients:Salt,MSG,Garlic,Spices,silicon dioxide,vegetable oil, yellow color, red color

Um, Hercules, soy sauce is fermented with wheat and usually contains gluten.

Unless they made it with gluten-free soy sauce.

Other than that it looks okay.

So are you saying it looks ok as in it does not have gluten??

Hmmm, monosodium GLUT-a-mate, makes me suspicious. Soy sauce most often contains wheat, if it doesn't, it costs quite a bit more. Usually, manufacturers watch their bottom-line and choose the cheaper choice.

Some people think if an ingredient list doesn't list "wheat," or "wheat-(something)" that the product is gluten-free. Doesn't it make sense that at least some of these people would be involved in manufacturiing?

Additionally; is the product made, blended and bottled on gluten-free dedicated equipment? In a gluten-free facility? If not, it's not gluten-free enough for me!

"Gluten-free" on a label in the U.S. is voluntary. It's largely up to the manufacturer to determine and state what is in their product. I would not buy that product.

No, I was just saying that soy sauce usually has wheat in it.

You should call them and ask if the soy sauce they used was a gluten free soy sauce.

Other than that it looks okay

The cheapo chinese soy sauce sold in most grocery stores is gluten free as well, it just tastes like crap. Judging by the ingredients, this is what they are using. So yes it looks to be safe.

That's 'MSG' Doesn't contain gluten but it can have adverse affects on people--stomachaches, 'D', headaches...

The ingredients in the soy sauce are listed in parentheses and none of them are sources of gluten. As mentioned, MSG causes reactions in some people, including some celiacs, but it is gluten-free.

Both of your items look gluten free. Like Psawyer said, that soy sauce has it's ingredients listed and none contain gluten. Plus the company SAYS it's 100% gluten free, so I dont think they would then use soy sauce that contained gluten. And MSG does not have gluten even if it SOUNDS like it does. You could just react to msg, as I hear that a lot of people do. Or maybe it was something else.

It must be from the Chrons I guess.

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
