I read on the Delphi list that Westsoy NF vanilla soymilk has barley in it but that the gluten proteins dont get through? Is it gluten-free or not? Anyone getting sick from it? I think i am but i wanted to be sure if it was that.

Plain non-fat soy milk is gluten-free. However, the vanilla flavor is made with barley (with the gluten proteins from barley eliminated.

(Hain Celestial Group) (1-800-434-4246) (vp=9/14/04)

Read the label.  All products manufactured by the Hain Celestial Group will clearly list any gluten-containing ingredients

Errr..... I would say its not gluten-free. I dunno of any way Barely could be gluten-free??

If you are looking into Soymilk, I assume you have a milk/casien/lactose issue. If so, check out Soy Delicous "Ice Cream" It is made from Soy, and is batch tested for many allergens, including gluten milk, and nut. Between all of us freaks in my family we cannot have milk, eggs, gluten(celiac), wheat(Allergy not celiac), Peanuts(deadly) and tree nuts. This is the only soy ice cream that my entire family can safely enjoy!!It is delicous too!!!! Open Original Shared Link

Thanks Michael- i actually am not technically lactose intolerant but i find soy milk must easier to digest so i generally drink it over regular milk. And ever since i learned about the problems w/ Westsoy i have been drinking Silk- u are so right! i love it, especially since it lists that it is gluten free on the box :) Thanks for your suggestions- it must be tough to find food for your whole family to eat!!

Have you tried the Silk yogurt? I was eating dannon and just found out its not gluten-free so i was thinking of trying the Silk brand, since i love their milk so much!

Soy is not the miracle food it's touted as being. There is a lot of evidence to suggest soy is harmful to a human body. Please look into it more closely. I used to have dozens of mainstream articles in my favorites that I could reference... I purged my favorites a month or so back and only have this one article left. It's a billion dollar a year industry that has the finances to push it's dangerous product. Do not consume soy.

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias! Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

      I might suggest you consider buckwheat groats. https://www.amazon.com/Anthonys-Organic-Hulled-Buckwheat-Groats/dp/B0D15QDVW7/ref=sr_1_4_pp?crid=GOFG11A8ZUMU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bk-hCrXgLpHqKS8QJnfKJLKbKzm2BS9tIFv3P9HjJ5swL1-02C3V819UZ845_kAwnxTUM8Qa69hKl0DfHAucO827k_rh7ZclIOPtAA9KjvEEYtaeUV06FJQyCoi5dwcfXRt8dx3cJ6ctEn2VIPaaFd0nOye2TkASgSRtdtKgvXEEXknFVYURBjXen1Nc7EtAlJyJbU8EhB89ElCGFPRavEQkTFHv9V2Zh1EMAPRno7UajBpLCQ-1JfC5jKUyzfgsf7jN5L6yfZSgjhnwEbg6KKwWrKeghga8W_CAhEEw9N0.eDBrhYWsjgEFud6ZE03iun0-AEaGfNS1q4ILLjZz7Fs&dib_tag=se&keywords=buckwheat%2Bgroats&qid=1769980587&s=grocery&sprefix=buchwheat%2Bgroats%2Cgrocery%2C249&sr=1-4&th=1 Takes about 10 minutes to cook. Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
