Healthy Pet P-Pod Clumping Cat Litter-- Anyone Know If It"s gluten-free?

Fresh Step is messing with my breathing (and the kitty's), so I've been trying to find a hypoallergenic kitty litter, preferably one that won't kill me. Tried World's Best (corn) but the Monkey just kept trying to eat it. Healthy Pet is actually starting to work out, but as they say it's all from vegetable sources (but won't say which) I'm more than a little nervous. They have yet to answer my email. Any insight?

No reply yet, but further Internet searches indicate that the company makes all their products from reclaimed wood fibers. So most likely it's gluten-free (knock on wood).

We have been using the silica cat litter (Mimi which is available only at w@lma@rt apparently) and really prefer it to any of the clay ones because of the dust issue. Well, also the litter box is in our only bathroom and the clumping litter that is tracked out of the box turns to cement if it gets wet - which happens when anyone takes a shower.

I am not familiar with that litter. I currently use the stuff that Costco sells in the green jug. It's the clumping kind. Maui made a huge mess with the silica kind. The first one I tried was in little balls. Kind to the feet but it rolled all over the place when she kicked it. Then I tried the kind that was very sharp. Must have killed her little feet! I know it killed mine. She kicked that all over too and it was pretty smelly.

      I'm sure it's chemically perfect. Most of them taste lousy!

      Hi @JulieRe.  I just found your post.  It seems that I am also experiencing thrush, and my doctor believes that I have fungal overgrowth in my gut, which is most likely candida.  I'm seeing my GI doctor next week, so I'm hoping she can diagnose and confirm this and then give me an antifungal treatment.  In the meantime, I have been working with a functional medicine doctor, doing a candida cleanse and taking vitamins. It's already helping to make me feel better (with some ups and downs, of course), so I do think the yeast is definitely a problem for me on top of my celiac disease and I'm hoping my GI doctor can look into this a bit further.  So, how about you?  Did the candida come back, or is it still gone following your fluconazole treatment?  Also, was it awful to take fluconazole?  I understand that taking an antifungal can cause a reaction that sometimes makes people feel sick while they're taking it.  I hope you're doing better still !

      I'm so sorry you're going through this—the "gluten challenge" is notoriously brutal, and it's awful to deliberately make yourself sick when you've already found the answer. For the joint pain, many people find that over-the-counter anti-inflammatories like ibuprofen can help take the edge off, and using heating pads or warm baths can provide some direct relief for the aches. For the digestive misery, stick to simple, easy-to-digest foods (like plain rice, bananas, and bone broth) and drink plenty of water and electrolytes to stay hydrated. It feels like the longest month ever, but you are doing the right thing to get a clear diagnosis, which can be crucial for your long-term health and getting the proper care. Hang in there; you can get through this! This article, and the comments below it, may be helpful:

      Daura Damm (a sponsor here) uses AN-PEP enzymes and filtering in their brewing process to reduce/remove gluten, and it actually tests below 10ppm (I've see a document where they claim 5ppm).

      This topic has come up before on this forum and has been researched. No GMO wheat, barley and rye are commercially available in the USA. Any modifications are from hybridization, not laboratory genetic modification. Better toleration of wheat, barley and rye products in other countries is thought to be due to use of heirloom varieties of these cereal grains as opposed to the hybrids used in the USA which contain much larger amounts of gluten.
