Jack Link's And Mountain Dew Voltage


Roda

Recommended Posts

Roda Rising Star

I put my youngest son gluten free a week ago. The boys went out with dad and came back with Mountain Dew Voltage and Jack Link's KC Masterpiece Barbeque beef steak. My gluten free child had already eaten the beef steak and had drank some of the Mountain Dew. Both have natural flavorings or flavorings on the lable. I guess it's too late if they are not gluten free since Dad already let him eat it. He did look at the lables but for wheat only. He still has a little to learn about gluten hidden in flavorings.

You can look at Pepsi's website. Most or all of the sodas are gluten-free. Kc Masterpiece BBQ sauce is gluten-free, plain flavor for sure. Don't know what "Jack's Link" is.

Jack Link's is a brand of beef jerkey and beef jerky. Here is the link. There is a question regarding gluten, but they seem to only say they will list wheat. I emailed them so I will see. Just thought I would see if anyone had any info also. I figure the soda is fine, but was questioning the other.

I just so happened to contact pepsi this morning to ask if their products are gluten-free. Below is the email they sent me. I figure this is a good place to post it, plus it gives official confirmation that the 'natural flavors' in their drinks don't have have gluten.

Dear Mark,

Thank you for contacting us at Pepsi with your inquiry.

While this company does not make gluten-free label claims, none of the ingredients in Pepsi-Cola products are derived from grains or flours that have been linked to malabsorption syndrome associated with gluten sensitivity.

We want to assure you that our products continue to be suitable for gluten-sensitive individuals with Celiac Disease. Please know that we fully understand the seriousness of this issue, which is why we have shared this information with Celiac Sprue Association and the Celiac Disease Foundation.

Please visit www.pepsiproductfacts.com for additional ingredient and nutrition information on all our beverages.

Thanks again for writing and for your interest in our products.

      Is blending same as cold press? Is there any juice recipe you tried that you feel helped like the ginger turmeric? Is there a brand turmeric powder you used etc? I used Aloe vera years ago but the taste is hard to get down. What are your go to juices you made?

      Your genetic test results confirm that you carry the highest-risk markers for celiac disease, specifically the HLA-DQ2 haplotype (while being negative for HLA-DQ8). The fact that both HLA-DQA1*05 and HLA-DQB1*0201 appear twice means you inherited identical copies from each parent, making you homozygous for these genes. This double dose of the DQ2.5 haplotype is significant because it indicates an even stronger genetic predisposition to celiac disease compared to those who only inherit one copy. Research suggests that people with this homozygous pattern may have a higher likelihood of developing the disease, potentially more severe immune responses to gluten, and a stronger association with dermatitis herpetiformis (which aligns with your diagnosis). While this genetic profile doesn’t guarantee worse symptoms, it does reinforce why strict gluten avoidance is critical for you. Since you’re already diagnosed, the main takeaway is that your results explain your biological susceptibility—no further genetic counseling is needed unless you have family planning questions. The repeating variants simply mean both parents passed you the same high-risk alleles, which is why your body reacts so strongly to gluten. Ultimately, your diagnosis and management remain the same, but this insight helps underscore the importance of lifelong dietary diligence.

      It sounds like you and your daughter are navigating celiac disease with a lot of care and dedication, and it’s wonderful that you’re prioritizing her health and growth during this critical time. Since her antibody levels and growth have plateaued, tightening up her diet by avoiding eating out (except at dedicated gluten-free places) is a smart move—even if it’s challenging socially. Many parents of celiac kids report significant growth spurts once gluten exposure is minimized, so there’s hope she’ll catch up if her levels improve. As for the future, while her growth window closing may reduce some risks, celiac is lifelong, and staying as strict as possible will likely always be best to avoid long-term complications, even if occasional cautious outings become manageable later. Navigating this with a teenager is tough, especially with spontaneous social events. For unplanned outings, keeping safe snacks (like GF protein bars, nuts, or fruit) in her bag or your car can help. To boost nutrition, try sneaking in variety where you can—like lentil or chickpea pasta instead of rice pasta, or adding veggies and proteins to her favorite dishes. Involving her in meal planning might help with pickiness, and connecting with other celiac families or support groups could provide social strategies and emotional support. It’s exhausting, but you’re doing an amazing job—your efforts now will set her up for a healthier future. Hang in there!

      This is good news--I hope we can get this done on a national level!

      I use a blender and have made various juice recipes over the years.
