What's The Deal With Soy?

Oh darn. I think I just lost a post. Basically, soy is evil IF you react to it. I don't. I react more to peanuts and dairy. Try some organic, non-GMO and traditionally prepared soy in a small amount and see if you react. If not, you're fine. Eat the good quality stuff instead of industrially prepared nonsense like weird fake meat.

If you react, avoid it. (Good luck.)

Just about any plant or animal can do you damage if you eat too much of it. Moderation and variety, folks!

I can NOT do the potato starch and eggs :(

the only cracker I have found that I can even risk is ::

Hot-kid rice crisps, gluten free, natural.

ingredients; rice, corn oil ,sea salt.

The risk of CC is there but I have found as long as I eat them in limited amounts I am ok.And I am hyper sensitive to soy .

Sometimes you just GOTTA have a cracker ;)

Thank you! One of my stores carries Schar hamburger buns so I bet they could get the crackers if I asked.

Are the buns better than the bread? I tried the bread while in Croatia and it was one of the creepiest gluten-free things I've ever had. It was like a crumbly sponge interlaced with old burlap. Very weird. :o

They are somewhat dry but not that bad. They are the only gluten-free buns I have ever seen in my stores however. I see them as a step up from using either gluten-free bread (which my ketchup and pickles soak through and don't really work) or using rice cakes. I keep hoping to find the new Udi's buns but I have not seen them yet. Actually, I prefer to just eat my burger patties with two wedges of lettuce but it's messy that way. My husband wants buns so I usually get the gluten-free buns for him.

OMG! No wonder I keep trying new bread recipes!!! :lol: We can do better (not that I've ever tasted old burlap). lol

Our store that stocks gluten-free stuff has 20% everything in the store the first Tuesday of each month so I've been waiting until this Tuesday. It helps to whittle a bill down from $200 to $160! I know they just got in Udi's hamburger buns and hotdog buns so I am going to try them. Homemade are pretty good but it's so weird having to make buns in muffin tins. I used to LOVE the act of making buns and watching them rise.

If Udi's buns are as good as the bread I will be pleased. I don't exactly love the bread but it is by far the best I have found (other than homemade).

I haven't seen the Udi's buns around here yet but will no doubt try them. I have made my own. I used a spring-loaded ice cream scoop to measure them and plop them into a muffin-top pan. (I did shape them slightly). Worked great using Annalise Roberts' recipe. I think you have that book, too, so for batter of that consistency, it works.

We tried those buns from her recipe, too, Sylvia---they were great! They got stale pretty fast, as I recall. We used these baking rings we bought on amazon. Pretty cool. (I still have not replaced my old muffin tins as yet)

I brought one with me to my son's on Memorial Day. It had been in my freezer (wrapped well) and it definitely was not as good as on day one, so yes, I thought it was dry. But that's true for so many gluten-free things.

You mean you got English muffin rings? I bought some last fall...but haven't used them yet. :o

Another thing you can use for buns are the small disposable aluminum pie tins (a Mennonite-type store near here has them for 10 cents each.)

Thanks to you and Peter for clearing up the soybean oil thing for me...I had no idea they could "get around" the labeling law that way! :unsure: I think I am still irritated about that!! :lol:

I saw that UDI's came out with burger and hot dog buns, too...but cannot find them. If you do find them (online somewhere), will you give us a heads up please?

and P.S. ..BEAUTIFUL pic , miss Manna!!! ;)

      Thanks to both of you for your responses!  Sadly, even after several years of very strict gluten avoidance, I remember the symptoms well enough that I am too frightened to risk a gluten challenge— heartbeat and breathing problems are scary— Scott, thank you for the specific information— I will call around in the new year to see if I can find anyone. In the meantime, I will carry on has I have been— it’s working! Thanks also for the validation— sometimes I just feel crushed by disbelief. Not enough to make me eat gluten though—

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @GlorietaKaro! As Scott indicated, without formal testing for celiac disease, which would require you to have been consuming generous amounts of gluten daily for weeks, it would be not be possible to distinguish whether you have celiac disease or NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). Their symptoms overlap. The difference being that celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the lining of the small bowel. We actually no more about celiac disease than we do about NCGS, the mechanism of the latter being more difficult to classify. There are specific antibody tests for celiac disease diagnosis and there is also the endoscopy/biopsy of the small bowel lining. Currently, there are no tests to diagnose NCGS. Celiac disease must first ruled out. Researchers are working on developing testing methods to diagnose celiac disease that do not require a "gluten challenge" which is just out of the question for so many because it poses serious, even life-threatening, health risks. But we aren't there yet.

      That’s really frustrating, I’m sorry you went through that. High fiber can definitely cause sudden stomach issues, especially if your body isn’t used to it yet, but accidental gluten exposure can feel similar. Keeping a simple food/symptom journal and introducing new foods one at a time can really help you spot patterns. You’re already doing the right things with cleaning and separating baking—also watch shared toasters, cutting boards, and labels like “may contain.”

      I thought this might be of interest regarding anti-EMA testing. Some labs use donated umbilical cord instead of monkey oesophagus. Some labs just provide a +ve/-ve test result but others provide a grade by testing progressively diluted blood sample. https://www.aesku.com/index.php/ifu-download/1367-ema-instruction-manual-en-1/file Fluorescence-labelled anti-tTG2 autoantibodies bind to endomysium (the thin layer around muscle fibres) forming a characteristic honeycomb pattern under the microscope - this is highly specific to coeliac disease. The binding site is extracellular tTG2 bound to fibronectin and collagen. Human or monkey derived endomysium is necessary because tTG2 from other mammals does not provide the right binding epitope. https://www.mdpi.com/1422-0067/26/3/1012

      First, please know that receiving two diagnoses at once, especially one you've never heard of, is undoubtedly overwhelming. You are not alone in this. Your understanding is correct: both celiac disease and Mesenteric Panniculitis (MP) are considered to have autoimmune components. While having both is not extremely common, they can co-occur, as chronic inflammation from one autoimmune condition can sometimes be linked to or trigger other inflammatory responses in the body. MP, which involves inflammation of the fat tissue in the mesentery (the membrane that holds your intestines in place), is often discovered incidentally on scans, exactly as in your case. The fact that your medical team is already planning follow-up with a DEXA scan (to check bone density, common after a celiac diagnosis) and a repeat CT is a very proactive and prudent approach to monitoring your health. Many find that adhering strictly to the gluten-free diet for celiac disease helps manage overall inflammation, which may positively impact MP over time. It's completely normal to feel uncertain right now. Your next steps are to take this one day at a time, focus on the gluten-free diet as your primary treatment for celiac, and use your upcoming appointments to ask all your questions about MP and what the monitoring plan entails. This dual diagnosis is a lot to process, but it is also the starting point for a managed path forward to better health. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
