"normal" Processed Food

For those of you who are looking for mainstream gluten-free food (not a specialty label), this might help.

I'm not feeling great, and hubs is due home tomorrow (with some bug he picked up in Germany and has now robbed him of his voice), wind is blowing allergens like crazy, Kid is snotty...you get the picture. Dark days for a gluten-free cook.

So, what I picked up today

Progresso Soups: every one of these has a different front label style but GLUTEN FREE is clearly listed on the back under allergen info.

Traditional chicken and rice

Lentil

New England clam chowder

Chicken tuscany

Santa Cruz Organic Juice (bottle): gluten-free on bottle

Mango Lemonade

Strawberry Lemonade

Tostitos Restaurant Style (gluten-free labeled)

Chex cinnamon sugar (gluten-free label)

Breyers Coffee Ice Cream (no gluten-free label)

Hormel Natural Choice lunch meat (gluten-free label)

I'm listing this because it's the most "processed" food trip I've made in a year!!'

I hope everyone's health improves quickly! I don't use a lot of canned/packaged stuff (though I've been forced to get it for my mom), and I know how hard it must have been for you to buy all that! :blink:

It was actually pretty easy - only one store. But I remember my first shopping trip. Ok, my first dozen...and it took me forever to get down an aisle. I think I just skipped aisles.

Funny, I was looking at what I bought and yes, it's gluten-free and processed but aside from the soups each one has just a few ingredients. Not that it makes it better, but it is "simple" processed food (if there is such a thing).

I couldn't believe I wasn't buying fruits and veggies (ok, did buy some baking potatoes)... but I'm stocked up on those til I figure out what to cook. And I don't feel like cooking but will probably cook tomorrow.

      Have you tried a diet with a lower carb, higher fat content, something similar to the Keto diet? Are you familiar with the ketogenic diet? Fat satisfies and so curbs hunger and levels out blood sugar.

      I've was diagnosed celiac over 10 years ago when in mid 50s. For a long time I have been getting headaches at night and in the morning and I suffer a lot of insomnia. The headaches can be very severe and sometimes develop into a full migraine but other times they wear off within an hour of getting up and eating breakfast. I have self diagnosed this a hypoglycaemia...

      False reading as of right now

      But that's the point Scott is trying to make. It is up to you. You do not have to go forward with another biopsy simply because your doctor wants you to. They work for you, not the other way around.

      gluten-free supplements in Canada

      Hi Kate, I am unsure if this is helpful or not. I have Webber calcium citrate everyday. I also react to less than 20 ppm of gluten. I have not reacted to Webber ever. (Fingers crossed it stays that way). Also, I get my blood tested every 6 months to ensure I have zero gluten exposure. It consistently comes back negative(0) to gluten. A few...

      False reading as of right now

      Honestly that's a good question, but I would like an official answer since I'm not a professional and my doctor's in my opinion no offense to them I'd say gone about it in a unprofessional way unless other's have been told to go gluten free, get a biopsy, just to go back gluten due to a possible false reading and then gotta go back for another biopsy But...

      I've was diagnosed celiac over 10 years ago when in mid 50s.  For a long time I have been getting headaches at night and in the morning and I suffer a lot of insomnia.  The headaches can be very severe and sometimes develop into a full migraine but other times they wear off within an hour of getting up and eating breakfast.  I have self diagnosed this a hypoglycaemia.  The medical profession in UK, where I live, does not seem to know anything of this and simply tests me for diabetes, which I do not have.  I know this condition is diet related and caused by carbohydrates, I avoid eating in the evenings.  Whatever I do, this condition seems to be getting worse and is very difficult to control.  Any advice would be much appreciated.

Good luck and I hope you find something that works for you.    all the best,    J
