Mary's Gone Crackers

Has anyone tried Mary's Gone Original Crackers? I had tried some before but I just bought a box last week and I got really sick. I thought perhaps it was the soup I ate - but I just tried them again and within minutes, I was ill. Anybody have the same experience? I have been contaminated so many times this week, I am such a bad mood!!!!

Hi, I eat Mary's Gone Crackers all the time without a problem. I think their factory is dedicated gluten-free. Could it be the fiber or an undiagnosed allergy to an ingredient? Frustrating situation, hope it improves:)

Yeah, Mary's Gone Crackers is a dedicated gluten free facility, so it's got to be something else about them that's bothering you. Could be the high fiber content.

Oh yeah, I love these - I get the original, too. They were recently on sale for $2.50 a box so I bought 6. I haven't had a problem with them. Maybe it's something else in them?

Sorry! That is not fun.

Could something else have made you sick other then the crackers? Or could your body not like something else that is in the crackers. As said before, they are made in a dedicated gluten free facility so they would not cause a gluten problem.

I eat them all the time. They are my favorites. Perhaps you're reacting to the flax seed or the soy or another ingredient in them. In any case, your body is telling you no, so you should listen and stop eating them. Try Edwards and Sons. They have a strict no gluten policy written on their website and their crackers are tested and retested. They have a flavor for everyone. Another good cracker is Asian Gourmet. They have several flavors and are produced in a gluten-free facility ( I called). The Casabe Rainforest Crackers made from the yucca root are also good and very low in calories. They are produced in a gluten free environment. www.fortitudebrands.com. Hope you feel better!

I ate some today actually, and no issues. I echo those hear--perhaps an issue with flax or sesame or the soup could definitely be a culprit too. Looks like you'll have to play detective :)

Food reactions are so frustrating to figure out. I can't eat Edwards and Sons. I wish I could because I think they taste great.

      I don't see how cornstarch could alter the test results. Where did you read that?

      For pain relief I take a combination of Thiamine (Benfotiamine), Pyridoxine B 6, and Cobalamine B12.  The combination of these three vitamins has analgesic effects.  I have back pain and this really works.  The B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted.   Hope this helps!  Keep us posted on your results!

      Welcome to the forum, @Xravith. I experienced similar symptoms before my diagnosis.  Mine were due to the loss of vitamins and minerals, essential nutrients we must get from our food.  With Celiac Disease, the intestinal lining, made up of thousands of villi, gets damaged and cannot absorb essential vitamins and minerals, especially the eight B vitamins.  The loss of Thiamine B 1 can cause muscle loss, inability to gain weight, edema (swelling), fatigue, migraines and palpitations.  Low thiamine can cause Gastrointestinal Beriberi with symptoms of nausea, abdominal pain and bloating.   Thiamine is only stored for a couple of weeks, so if you don't absorb enough from food daily, as the thiamine deficiency worsens physical symptoms gradually worsen.  If you're eating lots of carbs (like gluten containing foods usually do), you need more thiamine to process them (called high calorie malnutrition).  Thiamine works with all the other B vitamins, so if you're low in one, you're probably getting low in the others, too, and minerals like iron, magnesium, zinc, and calcium, as well as Vitamin D..  Talk to your doctor about checking for nutritional deficiencies.  Most doctors rarely recognize vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially in thiamine. Get a DNA test to see if you carry any Celiac genes.  If you do not have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably IBS.  If you do have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably Celiac.  I was misdiagnosed with IBS for years before my Celiac diagnosis.   Keep us posted on your progress. P. S. Deficiency in thiamine can cause false negatives on antibody tests, as can diabetes and anemia.

      No she didn't because if I want to ask I have to pay 700$ for 1 hour appointment so I couldn't even ask. I read that fillers like cornstash can alter the result and tylenol contains it so that's why I tried to find someone who can answer.

      Did the GI doc give you any rational for stopping the Tylenol during the gluten challenge? I have never heard of this before and I can't imagine a good reason for it. Ibuprofen, maybe, because it is an anti inflammatory but acetaminophen?  I don't see that it would have any impact on the test results to take Tylenol.
