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...)

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      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!

      Allergy medication: cetirizine by the HealthA2Z is it gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      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
