I'm looking for a website to help me figure out the nutritional value of homecooked foods.

Go to google and enter "usda nutrient database". You'll have to look up the foods one at a time and add them up, of course, but it's a great reference and they have *most* foods.

It's a pretty good one.

You can also buy software from NutriBase that you feed in the info from a recipe and it will give you all the nutritional data about the dish. They have different kinds of software depending on your needs.

I found this website when I was using the "underweights" forum on iVillage before my celiac disease dx. They have a software program you can buy, but you can sign up for a free account and use their site to enter the foods you are eating and the amount. It adds up the proteins, fat, carbs and total calories.

I used it to make sure I was getting enough Nutrient rich calories per day in my effort to gain weight. You can use it for however it fits your purpose.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten?  I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.
