I loved this before I got diagnosed, but I'm not sure if it's gluten free... Does anyone know if it is?

I'll be so happy if it is gluten-free.

I was just going to say that. I was also going to say: K8, There's this cool thing called Google. Sometimes you enter "Nutella gluten free" and like magic, there is the info! :P

(just a joke, you usually don't give your grocery list and ask us if everything is gluten-free) :)

It took me to the Nutella site right to the part about the gluten-free- ness of the product. I don't trust Bubba's gluten free list. :)

Hi everyone,

 

I realize this is an older post, but I am newly diagnosed with gluten ataxia. I love Nutella and am "doing my homework" to make sure that, besides having gluten free ingredients, there are no issues of trace or cross-contamination gluten in their manufacturing process. This is the reply I received from them today:

 

Thank you for your interest in the Ferrero "gluten-free" products.  We have confirmed with our Product Development Technicians that the following Ferrero products do not contain gluten:

GLUTEN FREE PRODUCTS:

Tic Tac

Nutella

Kinder Surprise

Kinder Chocolate

 

Kind Regards,

Consumer Relations

 

 

Good I will continue eating this..a childhood favourite. Has anyone tried gluten free toaster waffles  (Homestyle-Nature's Path) 2 toasted with peanut butter, Nutella, and sliced banana in-between to make a "sandwich"? Delicious!    C :D

April 5, 2013. (since this is an older thread) Maranatha makes a "Dark Chocolate Almond Spread" which is similar to Nutella, but almond based,  for those who cannot get along with all of the ingredients in the original Nutella.  It is a bit grainier and needs to be stirred, and sometimes heated up just a little in the wintertime, but can be a most acceptable substitute. The Dark Choc Almond Spread, based on my experiences, is not cross contaminated with gluten.  Open Original Shared Link    Maranathafoods website with FAQ "Yes, they free of gluten containing ingredients and are produced in a facility that does not process gluten containing ingredients"  Open Original Shared Link

 

Although they do not label "gluten free" as such right on the jar, this brand of nut butters, including their peanut butters, has been a lifesaver for me, because I have reacted to the other "added" ingredients or cross contamination in so many other brands, even a few that did have a gluten-free label but were "produced in the same facility as.... "   :angry:.

      Severe severe mouth pain

      @Charlie1946, There are many vitamin deficiencies associated with PCOS and Celiac disease and mental health issues. The malabsorption of nutrients caused by Celiac can exacerbate PCOS and mental health issues. Vitamin B 3 Niacin (the kind that causes flushing) improves sebaceous hyperplasia and PCOS. (300 mg/day) Vitamin B 1 Thiamine improves...

      Hi @Charlie1946 I am so sorry to hear you are suffering with this problem. Just a few other thoughts. I had debilitating anxiety prior to my diagnosis. I was never admitted to a hospital but thankfully had a lot of support from friends and family, and found a couple of publications contained really helpful advice: for depression, The Depression...

      Severe severe mouth pain

      @Charlie1946, as an alternative to milk-based protein shakes, let me suggest whey protein. Whey and casein are the two main proteins found in milk but whey doesn't cause issues like casein can for celiacs. Concerning your question about celiac safe mental health facilities, unfortunately, healthcare facilities in general do not have good reputations...

      @knitty kitty are you kidding? I had no idea about the casein!! No one ever mentioned that to me at all!! I basically live off that milk! I have also wondered if I have Sjorgen's , but I haven't been to the doctor yet. Can you get the TTFD over the counter? I do have dysphasia and I have lysine I just haven't been good about taking it. I am so glad I found...

      Severe severe mouth pain

      @trents, Hi, thank you for the reply, I used to be pretty good at taking my vitamins and supplements, because I also have PCOS, I have Barrett's esophagus, it's just too expensive to have it stretched all the time, and I also get kinda panicked when trying to swallow pills because of getting choked a lot before. I think maybe the thrush made it worse, I...

      @Charlie1946, There are many vitamin deficiencies associated with PCOS and Celiac disease and mental health issues.  The malabsorption of nutrients caused by Celiac can exacerbate PCOS and mental health issues. Vitamin B 3 Niacin (the kind that causes flushing) improves sebaceous hyperplasia and PCOS. (300 mg/day) Vitamin B 1 Thiamine improves dysphagia, and with Omega Threes, Sjogren's, and PCOS.     (300 mg/day) The other B vitamins are needed as well because they all work together like an orchestra.   The fat soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K, are needed as well.  Low Vitamin D is common in both PCOS and Celiac and depression.   Deficiencies in Niacin Thiamine, Cobalamine B12, Folate B 9, Vitamin C, and Vitamin D can cause mental health issues.   I wish doctors would check for nutritional deficiencies and gastrointestinal issues before prescribing antidepressants.  My mental health issues didn't get better until my vitamin deficiencies were corrected and a gluten free keto/paleo diet adopted.   Though blood tests are not really accurate, you may want to get tested for deficiencies before supplementing, otherwise you'll be measuring the vitamins you've taken and blood tests will show blood levels that are too high. Yes, Thiamine TTFD and the other vitamins are available over-the-counter.  A B Complex with additional Thiamine TTFD and Niacin made a big difference to my health.  I follow a paleo diet, and make sure I get Omega Threes.  I took high dose Vitamin D to correct my deficiency there.   I've run through the mental health gamut if you would like to talk about your issues.  You can personal message us if you would be more comfortable.   Interesting Reading: Nutritional and herbal interventions for polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS): a comprehensive review of dietary approaches, macronutrient impact, and herbal medicine in management https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12049039/

      Hi @Charlie1946 I am so sorry to hear you are suffering with this problem.   Just a few other thoughts.  I had debilitating anxiety prior to my diagnosis.  I was never admitted to a hospital but thankfully had a lot of support from friends and family, and found a couple of publications contained really helpful advice:  for depression, The Depression Cure: The Six-Step Programme to Beat Depression Without Drugs by Dr Steve Llardi, and for debilitating anxiety, At Last A Life by Paul David.  Both can be ordered online, there is also a website for the latter.  If you are deficient in or have low iron or B12 this can cause or worsen mental health issues.  I am sure my own issues were caused by long-term deficiencies.   If you can get your blood tested, it would be useful.  In the case of iron, make sure you only supplement if you have a deficiency, and levels can be monitored, as too much iron can be dangerous. If you have burning mouth issues, very bad TMJ or neuralgia,  I understand the pain can be managed by the use of a certain class of medication like amitriptyline, which is also used to treat depression.  But there again, it is possible with the correct diet and supplementation these issues might improve? I do hope that you find relief soon. Cristiana

Whey and casein are the two main proteins found in milk but whey doesn't cause issues like casein can for celiacs. Concerning your question about celiac safe mental health facilities, unfortunately, healthcare facilities in general do not have good reputations for being celiac safe. Most celiacs find that they need to depend on family members to advocate for them diligently or bring in food from the outside. Training of staff is inconsistent and there is the issue of turnover and also cross contamination.

I am so glad I found this group and all of you with all this helpful information!! I thought I was going crazy!!  I have sebaceous hyperplasia too- is that related to Celiac?  OH , and I wanted to ask if there is a site where I could find information on mental health issues , with celiac safe facilities??
