Popcorn Indiana's Chip Ins

Hello all,

I was just at the Yes! Natural food store here in DC, and on the counter they were sampling some Indiana Popcorn Chip Ins (cheddar flavor). They did indeed look delicious. I was curious since I hadn't heard of the brand before. I noticed on the front they say they're gluten free. But I turn the bag around and yeast extract is an ingredient. Is yeast extract ok to eat? After a quick Internet search, I came upon a site that had it as not safe.

Also, curiously, on the front of the bag they said "whole grains." I suppose corn can be a whole grain, but for a celiac that did not inspire confidence!

I have eaten their kettle corn without issue. There is yeast extract that is gluten-free so I would assume this is the type they use.

The "whole grain" declaration refers to the corn. Yeast is gluten free.

Popcorn Indiana states that they don't use any gluten ingredients and they also test for the presence of gluten. I've never had the Chipins, but I love their popcorn. Their Smoked Cheddar Popcorn is absolutely addictive :rolleyes:

Yeast doesn't have gluten. It's in tons of gluten-free recipes. Eat it all the time. I've also had the chips you're talking about , they are yummy

That looks like a list given out by a doctor's office. I'm going to guess it has some outdated information--I remember the list my gastro gave me....it was ancient.

Nope! Sorry! And there is not a fortune waiting for you in Nigeria or sexy wealthy men waiting to meet you on line. ;)

      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!
