Food For Life Brown Rice Wraps (U.s.)

Just curious- has anyone had a problem with Food for Life Brown Rice wraps?

I'm assuming they are made on shared equipment or the same facility based on all of their non-gluten free products...

something made me sick last night and these are the only questionable thing that can be causing it or dairy is becoming a problem for me (after 1 year gluten-free).

I never reacted to them, but I stopped eating them after they were recalled by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency last October for gluten contamination. I'll never eat them again.

Yes, I had a reaction to them. It was most certainly a gluten reaction. They use Barley water in some of their other products. They deny that these have barley water but I think they do and they just test below the 20 ppm threshold. Regardless of whether they have gluten on purpose or accidental cc, they made me very sick. I ate them twice in the same week before I figured it out (the worst of my reaction was delayed by a couple days). I wrote to the company to complain and never heard anything back. I'm NEVER buying anything made by FFL again.

thanks for the responses. guess i'll be throwing out the last few i have. it's so hard for me to pinpoint what bothers me but i'm thinking it was those. i had one for dinner the other night and then lunch yesterday. i feel better today but i definitely had some of the intestinal symptoms that i used to get with gluten...a bad stomach ache where it feels like someone is squeezing my intestines nonstop. back to re-evaluating everything i eat!

      Anyone Here Sensitive To Fillers Such As Cellulose?

      By CelluloseSick · Posted

      Thanks Scott. its been a tough journey. i haven’t been able to take any painkillers for pain, because they all contain some form of cellulose. I’m finally working with a compounding pharmacist to get compounded Ibuprofen w/o cellulose filler … I’ll let you know how that works out. when I tell doctors about my problems with cellulose and medications, sadly they really don’t understand the magnitude of the problem. My reason for responding to the original post was to let others know they’re not crazy - and there’s such a thing as cellulose intolerance. Thank you so much for your response.

      Hello @CelluloseSick, it sounds like you’ve been through a really challenging journey trying to pinpoint and avoid cellulose fillers in medications. Severe migraines and liquid diarrhea, especially with Ulcerative Colitis, must make this an incredibly difficult issue to manage. It’s frustrating how hidden these ingredients can be, and it definitely takes a lot of detective work to connect the dots. While true cellulose allergies or intolerances don’t seem to be well-documented, some people do report digestive issues, headaches, or other symptoms when exposed to cellulose-based fillers. Unfortunately, there isn’t a clear statistic on what percentage of the population suffers from this, but anecdotal evidence suggests that you are not alone. Have you found any specific resources or medical professionals who acknowledge this issue? It’s great that you’ve been able to find compounded medications with sucrose fillers—hopefully, that continues to work for you!

      Btw, I recently switched from Compounded T3/T4 ( which had cellulose in it, unbeknown to me) and was making me sick to a brand called NP Thyroid. No cellulose filler

      So happy to have found this Post. ive been struggling with cellulose fillers in meds for years. When I found out, I looked for meds that do not contain cellulose filler or have had to get compounded meds made with sucrose filler. My reactions are:  severe migraines and liquid diarrhea ( not fun when you suffer from Ulcerative Colitis). not sure what percentage of the population suffer from such allergy. you'd have to be a pretty good sleuth to find this and make the connections. Bravo for you!   anyone know what percentage of population suffers from cellulose intolerance? thanks?

      If you replace the gluten products you normally ate with gluten-free versions, and I mean the breads, be careful, as many gluten-free products can be high in calories and low in nutrients (high carb).
