Udi's Update

I went to Colorado to see my 102 and 1/2 year old mother, I am sure she was never a Celiac. Anyway when I was there I visited an Udi's store and asked questions. It turns out around 6 months ago they moved their gluten free products to a new and much larger bakery. The demand for their products was increasing so rapidly that they had to make a move. Prior to that they made all their baked goods in the same bakery. They have gluten and gluten free products.

Having said that, before I left on my trip some people had complained about the quality of their product being inconsistent for a few months. It is my guess that the move and the demand may have affected that. I would bear with them. I was not able to visit the bakery because it was in a new location but I did buy several of their products at one of their stores. They have a new chocolate/chocolate chip muffin that is really good and they said they will be coming out with new cookies.

At the Denver (Jeffco fairgrounds) gluten-free fair a few weeks ago, they said their hamburger and hotdog buns are almost ready for sale. They are working on packaging. :D

I haven't found a good hamburger or hot dog bun yet so I will be ready to buy them when they come out. I had a sandwich at their store twice and they were soooo good.

I had my credit card out and was all set to order a few things from their web site (loaf of whole grain bread, package of 2 pizza crusts, package of cinnamon rolls, package of bagels and a package of one of their granolas. But then I saw the shipping charge. Over $25 for 5 items. I know it's 2-night air delivery but I just can't spend that much on shipping. :( The only Udi item I've been able to find in any grocery store is the white sandwich bread and I love it and would like to try other things they make too. Our local health food store doesn't sell any Udi items. :( Very disappointing.

Have you tried asking them to carry more items? I have had good luck getting my stores to start carrying certain gluten free foods by requesting it. If they are able to get the Udi's white bread then they should be able to get other Udi's items as well.

I agree with GlutenFreeManna. Udi's built a new bakery because of high demand and they want to keep up with it and expand, so I would ask store about it and tell them you will buy several of the products they stock. Their bagels are good too.

Ask your local health food store to carry Udi's. Tell them you will buy it. Ask them for a case price. It will probably be cheaper then ordering direct. Use this link for a store near you Open Original Shared Link

      Thank you again for your reply and comments which I have read carefully as I appreciate any input at this stage. I'm tending to listen to what my body wants me to do, having been in agony for many years any respite has been welcome and avoiding all wheat and lactose has thankfully brought this.  When in pain before I was seen by a number of gynacologists as I had 22 fibroids and had an operation 13 years ago to shrink them . However the pain remained and intensified to the point over the years where I began passing out. I was in and out of a&e during covid when waiting rooms where empty. My present diet is the only thing that's given me any hope for the future. As I say I had never heard of celiac disease before starting so I guess had this not come up in a conversation I would just have carried on. It was the swollen lymph node that sent me to a boots pharmacist who immediately sent me to a&e where a Dr asked questions prescribed antibiotics and then back to my GP. I'm now waiting for my hospital appointment . Hope this answers your question. I found out more about the disease because I googled something I wouldn't normally do, it did shed light on the disease but I also read some things that this disease can do. On good days I actually hope I haven't got this but on further investigation my mother's side of the family all Celtic have had various problems 're stomach pain my poor grandmother cried in pain as did her sister whilst two of her brother's survived WW2 but died from ulcers put down to stress of fighting.  Wishing you well with your recovery.  Many thanks

      Welcome to the forum, @Nacina, What supplements is your son taking?
    • knitty kitty
      @BluegrassCeliac, I'm agreeing.  It's a good thing taking magnesium. And B vitamins. Magnesium and Thiamine work together.  If you supplement the B vitamins which include Thiamine, but don't have sufficient magnesium, Thiamine won't work well.  If you take Magnesium, but not Thiamine, magnesium won't work as well by itself. Hydrochlorothiazide HCTZ is a sulfonamide drug, a sulfa drug.  So are proton pump inhibitors PPIs, and SSRIs. High dose Thiamine is used to resolve cytokine storms.  High dose Thiamine was used in patients having cytokine storms in Covid infections.  Magnesium supplementation also improves cytokine storms, and was also used during Covid. How's your Vitamin D?

      Hi,   Not saying Thiamine (B1) couldn't be an issue as well, but Mg was definitely the cause of my problems. It's the only thing that worked. I supplemented with B vitamins, but that didn't change anything, in fact they made me sick. Mg stopped all my muscle pain (HCTZ) within a few months and fixed all the intestinal problems HCTZ caused as well. Mom has an allergy to some sulfa drugs (IgG Celiac too), but I don't think I've ever taken them. Mg boosted my energy as well. It solved a lot of problems. I take 1000mg MgO a day with no problems. I boost absorption with Vitamin D. Some people can't take MgO,  like mom, she takes Mg Glycinate. It's one of those things that someone has try and find the right form for themselves. Everyone's different. Mg deficiency can cause anxiety and is a treatment for it. A pharmacist gave me a list of drugs years ago that cause Mg deficiency: PPIs, H2 bockers, HCTZ, some beta blockers (metoprolol which I've taken -- horrible side effects), some anti-anxiety meds too were on it. I posted because I saw he was an IgG celiac. He's the first one I've seen in 20 years, other than my family. We're rare. All the celiacs I've met are IgA. Finding healthcare is a nightmare. Just trying to help. B

      It sounds like you've been through a lot with your son's health journey, and it's understandable that you're seeking answers and solutions. Given the complexity of his symptoms and medical history, it might be beneficial to explore a few avenues: Encourage your son to keep a detailed journal of his symptoms, including when they occur, their severity, any triggers or patterns, and how they impact his daily life. This information can be valuable during medical consultations and may help identify correlations or trends. Consider seeking opinions from specialized medical centers or academic hospitals that have multidisciplinary teams specializing in gastrointestinal disorders, especially those related to Celiac disease and Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EOE). These centers often have experts who deal with complex cases and can offer a comprehensive evaluation. Since you've already explored alternative medicine with a nutrition response doctor and a gut detox diet, you may want to consider consulting a functional medicine practitioner. They take a holistic approach to health, looking at underlying causes and imbalances that may contribute to symptoms. Given his low vitamin D levels and other nutritional markers, a thorough nutritional assessment by a registered dietitian or nutritionist specializing in gastrointestinal health could provide insights into any deficiencies or dietary adjustments that might help alleviate symptoms. In addition to routine tests, consider asking about more specialized tests that may not be part of standard screenings. These could include comprehensive stool analyses, food intolerance testing, allergy panels, or advanced imaging studies to assess gut health.
