Cocoa Powder

I like to make chocolate things but I need a safe cocoa powder. I was using Ghirardelli because I thought it was safe (their website gives a kinda confusing explanation of their processing methods and what allergens might be present) but now I am definitely reacting to it so I had to throw it away :/ What do you use?

I couldn't find one I didn't react to, sadly. I am extremely sensitive, however. I hope you do find one.

I use Hershey's cocoa powder and have no problem with it.

I know that this one is ok for many super sensitives. It's called Droste

Ghirardelli products are gluten free. I am very sensitive and use their products with no problems. Here is a listing of their products and the allergy information. Perhaps you have a problem with soy or dairy also?

I don't eat dairy and soy but I've never worried about cross contamination from them. Whatever the case, I'm definitely not eating Ghirardelli again.

If you don't eat dairy or soy and then ingest something with these as a possible cc, then that could be your answer. I would hate anyone to think that Ghirardelli contains gluten, because it does not. Check this out: Open Original Shared Link

You will have to check which ones are gluten-free but I have never seen cocoa powder that contains gluten.

Has anyone tried Navitas cocoa products? Are they ok?

      Burning Sensation in the small intestine

      I eat a lot of dairy but its intermittent is this burning so I would assume it would happen all the time. Plus I have been tested for lactose intolerance etc and I am fine and the other symptoms of that I don't get. As a aside my dad died last month after a long illness so I wonder if the stress of that might be a influence as a bodily reaction to stress...

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      You should be fine. You may start feeling better within a few days. Someone who is very low in thiamine may notice improvement within hours. Did you get the NeuroMag or another magnesium supplement?

      Hello, @pilber309, welcome to the forum! Are you currently consuming dairy?   You mentioned something about lots of yogurt and cheese, but did you cut it out or are you eating lots of it?   Could you clarify please? Some people with Celiac react to casein, the protein in dairy the same as to gluten with antibodies and villi damage.
