A Question About Soy ~

I recently found out I am allergic to soy and just had a reaction from chicken that was fed a soy based diet. If I buy chicken that was fed a "vegetarian diet" does that exclude soy???

Well, soy comes from the soybean which is technically a vegetable so you'd have to confirm what kind of vegetables these chickens are being fed.

So Grass-Fed meats would be safe then, right?

When it comes to beef, that's all I will eat :o Grass-fed organic is the purest, safest you can get. I have problems with corn as well as soy and try my best to avoid corn-fed anything too.

The chicken I ate was from Trader Joe's and I didn't read the back of the package until after I realized I was having a reaction and saw their chickens were fed corn and soy. I'm not sure if I have an allergy to corn. I'm hoping that Whole Food's chicken is soy free. If not, I don't know where I'm going to find some. Hopefully my "vegetarian fed" Organic Valley eggs are soy free, I'm gonna have to give them a call tomorrow.

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
