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!

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.

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!!! ;)

      Low iron and vitamin d

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      A low tTG is great news, but it doesn’t always mean the small intestine has fully healed yet—iron and vitamin D absorption can lag behind for months or even years, especially in young children. Many kids need supplements for a period of time while the gut repairs itself, and that doesn’t necessarily mean it will be lifelong. Morning stomach pain is also commonly reported in celiac kids and can be related to slow healing, reflux, motility, or even low iron itself. It sounds like the supplements are clearly helping, which is reassuring, and ongoing monitoring with her doctor can help determine when (or if) doses can be reduced as absorption improves. The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs.

      Healthy Gluten Free Foods low sugar that you found?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      A lot of gluten-free packaged foods do rely on extra sugar, starches, or sodium to replace texture and flavor, so focusing on simpler options makes sense. Many people do better with naturally gluten-free proteins like eggs, plain yogurt, nuts, seeds, hummus, beans, and minimally processed protein bars with lower added sugar and higher fiber. Pairing those with whole foods can help you feel more “normal” without triggering symptoms. Subscription boxes can be hit or miss, so checking labels carefully and using them as an occasional supplement—rather than a staple—often works best.

      Accuracy of testing concerns

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @McKinleyWY, For a genetic test, you don't have to eat gluten, but this will only show if you have the genes necessary for the development of Celiac disease.  It will not show if you have active Celiac disease.   Eating gluten stimulates the production of antibodies against gluten which mistakenly attack our own bodies.  The antibodies are produced in the small intestines.  Three grams of gluten are enough to make you feel sick and ramp up anti-gluten antibody production and inflammation for two years afterwards.  However, TEN grams of gluten or more per day for two weeks is required to stimulate anti-gluten antibodies' production enough so that the anti-gluten antibodies move out of the intestines and into the bloodstream where they can be measured in blood tests.  This level of anti-gluten antibodies also causes measurable damage to the lining of the intestines as seen on biopsy samples taken during an endoscopy (the "gold standard" of Celiac diagnosis).   Since you have been experimenting with whole wheat bread in the past year or so, possibly getting cross contaminated in a mixed household, and your immune system is still so sensitized to gluten consumption, you may want to go ahead with the gluten challenge.   It can take two years absolutely gluten free for the immune system to quit reacting to gluten exposure.   Avoiding gluten most if the time, but then experimenting with whole wheat bread is a great way to keep your body in a state of inflammation and illness.  A diagnosis would help you stop playing Russian roulette with your and your children's health.

      Accuracy of testing concerns

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @McKinleyWY! There currently is no testing for celiac disease that does not require you to have been consuming generous amounts of gluten (at least 10g daily, about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for at least two weeks and, to be certain of accurate testing, longer than that. This applies to both phases of testing, the blood antibody tests and the endoscopy with biopsy.  There is the option of genetic testing to see if you have one or both of the two genes known to provide the potential to develop celiac disease. It is not really a diagnostic measure, however, as 30-40% of the general population has one or both of these genes whereas only about 1% of the general population actually develops celiac disease. But genetic testing is valuable as a rule out measure. If you don't have either of the genes, it is highly unlikely that you can have celiac disease. Having said all that, even if you don't have celiac disease you can have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms as celiac disease but does not involve and autoimmune reaction that damages the lining of the small bowel as does celiac disease. Both conditions call for the complete elimination of gluten from the diet. I hope this brings some clarity to your questions.
