Quaker Cracker Jack Corn Cakes... Mmmmm

Hey gang... checked their Canadian website which implied they were gluten-free so ate them. Delicious. But would like to know if anyone actually verified with Quaker that they are gluten-free?

Thanks,

Elsinore

Careful with Quaker they might do rice cakes and stuff that are suppose to be gluten-free but there's alot of talk on the boards about cross-contaimination with them.

Usually if they're gluten free they will actually state this on the back of the packet now, like Walkers do with their crisps. Also though, to look out for are Quakers snack bags - sorry i cant remember the name at the moment - theyre a little like crisps, but low in fat, and made of maize i believe. Bags are black and you can get them in places like superdrug. Anyway, theyre really tasty, and say gluten free on the back. Kettle chips are also a great gluten-free bonus, and always say gluten-free on the back if they are :)

I do not trust Quaker...they have alot of cross contamination issues. I have not had a problem with many brands when it comes to cross contamination but this brand I have had problems with.

I have eaten Quaker Caramel Corn Ricecakes for over 5 years andnot once been glutened. The Cracker Jack rorn cakes are gluten free if you eat the "original" brand--the Butter Toffee Cracker Jack ricecake contains barley, so watch out for that one. Deb

They don't have gluten-free statements on mainstream products in Canada.

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
