Unsure Whether This Had Gluten In It Or Not

Im from the uk and on sunday I had a roast beef joint from Marks and Spencers (I no longer have the packaging), it said it was a roast beef joint with roast beef stock and Im not too sure if it was also listed to have a small amount of mustard in it. Now yesterday I felt quite sick again, have not felt like that since going gluten free. I even had to have some ginger to make me feel better. I cant see anything else that Ive eaten that could make me feel that way. Is beef stock gluten free or does it contain gluten. I know I should have been more careful. I have a feeling this is what made me feel ill yesterday.

Does anyone know about beef stock and the mustard?

Thanks

Just found the packaging there is no mustard and it doesnt list anything that would suggest gluten apart from the roast beef stock, which I dont know if it has gluten

If you found the packaging can you call the company and ask?

A lot of our cubed stocks here in Canada have gluten as it's a binding agent. I'd give the company a call if you haven't already.

unless you find the one or 2 brands that make it gluten free ( i think Pacific makes some gluten-free)... most stocks.. beef, chicken... will definitely have GLUTEN in them gROSS :angry:

I just checked my carton of Pacific Free Range Low Sodium Chicken Broth and didn't see any soy on the ingredient list. This is one of the few "prepared" foods that I eat regularly.

Yea that's the brand I go for also. But I must admit I do miss bullion cubes and the chicken base that I used to use which was basically powdered bullion. Nothing like a hot cup of chicken bullion with crackers after a hour of shoveling snow or when the sniffles strike.

If you are interested, I found at my local store Savory Choice liquid broth concentrate. They had beef and chicken. I got the chicken and really like it. It says gluten free and no msg. Ingredients: chicken stock, natural flavor, salt, chicken fat, sugar, maltodextrin, yeast extract and xanthan gum. It makes 4 cups per pouch. 4 pouches per package.

Kitchen basics at the grocery says gluten-free right on it. No soylent green! Lower sodium then the ones marked low sodium.

I use the Swanson beef broth. It is gluten-free and delicous. I keep cans at work and warm them up for an afternoon snack.

On the contrary, the vast majority of broths, at least the ones you find in the grocery store in the U.S., are gluten-free these days. Not all, but most. I don't know about soy, though. And in the U.S. when you find broth listed as part of a meat, it's usually just what is says -- IOW, vegetable broth is made from vegetables and little or nothing else.

I am inclined to disagree there Richard, I have found quite a number of stocks that are not gluten-free. Anyway back to original question... I have noticed that for some reason beef stock has a higher rate of having items I cant eat, like MSG and Gluten than say chicken broth, so I would say that it is highly likely there was some in your beef stuff... But like other people said, if you can look up the company number and call them it would be good to be certain. (and yeah I LOVE Pacific broths...)

      Headaches / Migraines and Hypoglycaemia

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Sarah Grace,  Thank you for the update!  It's so good to hear from you!  I'm glad Thiamine, B Complex and magnesium have helped you.  Yes, it's important to take all three together.    I had to quit eating cheese and nuts a long time ago because they triggered migraines in me, too.  They are high in tyrosine, an amino acid, found also in fermented foods like sauerkraut and red wine.   I found taking Tryptophan very helpful with migraines.  Tryptophan is a precursor of serotonin and people with migraines are often low in serotonin.  (Don't take tryptophan if you're taking an SSRI.)     This recent study shows tryptophan really helps. The association between dietary tryptophan intake and migraine https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31254181/   For immediate respite from a migraine, try smiling REALLY BIG, mouth closed, tongue pressed against roof of mouth, and crinkle up your eyes like you just heard or saw the funniest thing...  This causes an endorphin release in the brain.  Usually it's the funny event, then the endorphin release and then the smile.  Smiling first makes the endorphin center think it missed something and it catches up quickly by releasing endorphins after the big crinkle eyed smile.  Must make crinkly eyes with smile or it won't work.  If you do this too frequently within a short time frame (several hours), you can deplete your endorphins, but you'll make more in a couple of hours, so no worries. Get your thyroid checked, too.  Migraines are also seen in low thyroid function (Hashimoto's or hypothyroidism).  Celiac and thyroid problems go hand in hand.   Vitamin D helps, too.  Low Vitamin D is found in migraine.   I'm so glad you're doing better.

      Its been a complete nightmare dealing with all these health issues one thing after another and being told many different things.I am looking for a new primary care physician considering when I told my past doctor of 25 years I was diagnosed before any foods eliminated from my diet and now this year at age 54 no longer able to push considering Im always exhausted, leg pain , stomach,skin and eye issues,high blood pressure to name a few all worsen because I was a  school bus driver and few years until my immune system went to hell and was fired because of it.Im still struggling now, Im sibo positive and been told im not celiac and that I am.I have a hernia and dealing with menopause. Its exhausting and is causing depression because of non medical help. Today I saw another gastrointestinalist and he said everything im feeling doesn't add up to celiac disease since my ITg levels are normal so celiac disease is under control and it's something else. I for got I had Barrett's esophagus diagnosed in 2007 because recent doctors down played it just like my celiac disease. Im currently looking for a pcp in my area because it is affecting me personally and professionally. Im told since celiac looks under control it's IBS and I need to see a therapist to control it. Gastrointestinalist around here think only food consumption and if ITG looks normal its bit celiac disease it's something else. Is this right? This is what im being told. I want medical help but told its IBS.Im feel lost by " medical team "

      My migraines generally have their onset during the early morning hours as well. Presently, I am under siege with them, having headaches all but two days so far this month. I have looked at all the things reported to be common triggers (foods, sleep patterns, weather patterns, stress, etc.). Every time I think I start to see a pattern it proves not to pan out in the long run. I'm not sure it's any one thing but may, instead, be a combination of things that coalesce at certain times. It's very frustrating. The medication (sumatriptan or "Imatrix") is effective and is the only thing that will quell the pain. NSAIDs, Tylenol, even hydrocodone doesn't touch it. But they only give you 9 does of sumatriptan a month. And it doesn't help that medical science doesn't really know what causes migraines. They know some things about it but the root cause is still a mystery.
