Delfi Forum Gf Pro. List

Hello People:

Does anyone know if there is a printed/published Delfi gluten-free Product List (other that what can be printed off the computer).?

I have several friends and family members who would like a copy. There must be something in a booklet/book form that you can carry around with you.

Any published list out there that can be purchased/ordered.

Thanks. Lisa B

Hi Lisa!

Because of the fluctuating nature of the gluten free status of items, it really isn't recommended or worthwhile to publish a gluten free list that basically will be unreliable by the next month. What is gluten free this month may not be gluten free next month.

The delphi list is the best resource for up to date and current/correct information of current gluten-free status of products. The reason it is the best resource is because it is constantly being updated, corrected and checked by lots of dedicated gluten free people who volunteer their time to keep this list current for us.

One example of the change in status is a brand of clam juice that I finally found out was gluten free. I contact the company to ask if it was gluten free, their response was that yes, indeed, it is gluten free, but unfortunately, next month they are changing the formula and it will no longer be gluten free.

That is the nature of the gluten free world. It makes our life much more difficult and that's because we must be forever vigilant.

Hugs.

Canadian Karen,

Is the Delphi list applicable to Canadians? I guess I sort of figured it was only for goods manufactured/sold in the U.S.

Canadian Karen Community Regular

Quite often the list will differentiate between U.S. and Canada.

e.g. it will say (but not gluten-free in Canada). An example would be Smarties.....

Here is an excerpt in the candy section that gives a good example:

M&M's (800.551.0702) (vp=09/24/02)

The following are gluten-free: Snickers (except mini's in Canada); Skittles; Starburst; Dove (milk & dark choc); Mars Almond Bar; 3Musketeers; MilkyWay Midnight (all other MilkyWay's are not gluten-free). All mini versions of the above are gluten-free except Snickers in Canada)

Here is the Smarties excerpt:

Smarties (USA ONLY) (Ce De Candy) (908-964-0660) (vp=10/15/2003)

Please note, these are the Smarties in the USA ONLY. Canadian Smarties are NOT gluten-free.

Where can I find the Delfi gluten-free Product List? Is it a subscription, on the web?

Thanks!

No the Dephi List is a 79 page long list of products and foods gluten free status. It is not complete but quite in depth and a very good resource to have. Someone can email it to you or celiac3270 posted about it in the product section a while ago and he gave directions on how to get it yourself in there.

If you want a touchable printed list call the Celiac Sprue Association and they have a list, not as detailed as the Delfi Forum Product List, but it may help you get started.

They have a toll free # 1-877-272-4272

They will also offer you many web sites that will give you SO much valuable information regarding celiac disease. ( as small fee is required, but worth it and you may also join the association and receive newsletters and updated on celiac disease research)

Good luck and keep us posted about our progress.

Thanks Karen. I too thought the delphi list was only for Americans. I downloaded the list which I think will be very useful.

I bought the Triumph Grocery Guide. It was kind of hard to use--it really needs an index. It's okay for beginners, but there were a lot of products that weren't in my area.

I just found it easier in the beginning to go the whole foods, plain route and then when I started to add foods back in like Chinese, then I just googled everything and used this forum a lot--still do.

Once you know what you can/cannot eat by reading the labels, then life become so much easier.

And for the inlaws when they occasionally have my kids for overnighters, I tell them that wheat will be listed, but to particularly look for barley or malt--which isn't usually a problem for what they have at their house. And if they're in doubt, call me or ask the kids--they're the ones with iphone gluten free app. :P

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

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?

      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.
