Gluten Free Casein Free Candy

Any suggestions what sweets are gluten and casein free? I know Sour Patch Kids, Swedish Fish, and I think Skittles. I had found a website of gluten free candy a few days ago but now I can't find it anywhere. I would love to find out there was a easy to find Valentine candy I could safely eat. I don't know why I've never been big on Valentines before and I didn't buy any Christmas candy but for some reason I'd love a little Valentines treat.

I've had a pretty strong head cold this week and have been sucking on Ricola cough drops in various flavors. They are pretty much like a hard candy. Not expensive either.

I knew Halls were safe but I didn't know about Ricola, thanks. I hope you're feeling better now.

But don't eat too many of them because they will give you diarrhea.

Well, I only went thru 3 bags in 5 days. I already had the Big D from being sick so not sure if it made any difference or added to it. Guess I'll have to get some more and find out!

I saw a link on the Ricola USA site where they said they test to 2 PPM or less of gluten. I am not so sure their web site math works tho. .002% sounds more like 2 thousandths to me than 2 millionths. Good thing I wasn't a mathematician. Hmmm. Anyway, I did fine with them.

In the United States, there are no established government standards as to what can be considered gluten-free or what is safe for use in celiac patients. Our products contain less than 0.002% (or less than 2ppm) gluten. We urge you to share this information with your doctor or to contact the Celiac Sprue Association of the USA @1-877-CSA-4CSA.

      Gluten challenge and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis

      By Zuma888 · Posted

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.

      Negative, although I had most of the symptoms of celiac disease. I now eat as if I had a diagnosis.

      While it's always important to approach internal use of essential oils with caution and ideally under the guidance of a qualified professional, your experience highlights the potential of complementary approaches when traditional medicine falls short. Many in the community are also interested in the intersection of natural wellness and gluten-free living, particularly for managing systemic inflammation and its various symptoms, so sharing your story is valuable. Your observation that it may also be helping with bloating is fascinating, as that could point to an overall reduction in inflammation. Thank you for sharing what is working for you!
