    Yes it took me a while but I realized that that's why some labels say 'no wheat' and others say, 'no wheat, gluten' very important to say both, since barley and rye contain gluten too. And yes, it could be the nuts, but the nuts from the place I mentioned were contaminated. I had all the same symptoms as when I ate gluten...and of course the company confirmed...

    Thank you all again. I do react to soy so the MaraNatha Organic won't work for me, but thanks for your input Backboneexecutives... Lovegrov....I bought some nuts from nuts online dot com, they were raw and out of the shell....spent 120.00 bought a bunch....started eating them every day...and began to notice subtle symptoms....that continued each day...

    Thanks Ahorsesoul....

    Thanks Rachelle and Wolicki....This is good to know, I'm always looking at peanut butter in the stores but afraid to get them...I have so many food sensitivities...I never heard of Adams....I'll check these brands out, thanks a bunch!!

    I searched for information on here re gluten free peanut butter and saw a lot of posts that mostly say peanut butter is gluten free....but not one that mentions cross contamination because peanuts are often processed in facilities that also process gluten/wheat....can anyone address this. I find most nuts are contaminated...are peanuts not? I'm starting wonder...

    Hi Terin, I'm not an expert....but an allergic reaction involves histamine. Usually there are outward symptoms...runny nose, hives, anaphylaxis, itching, redness, etc. An immunologic sensitivity does not involve a histamine reaction, and is doing damage internally that you are unaware of. Like the damage that occurs to the villi in Celiac disease. Most of...

    Thank you Lisa and celiac-mommy! I will try both of them... Appreciate your help. Ann72601 I would be leary of any fruit or nuts out of those bins in the health food store. If that's where they came from, and if not, with no label it's like playing Russian Roulette. The bins can be cross contaminated. You will make mistakes, we all do, hopefully as...

    Has anyone had experience with Kirklands Walnuts or Almonds. I cannot tolerate even the trace amounts of CC on most nuts. I am really missing not having nuts in my diet. I know they are not processed in a gluten free facility, so I'm wondering if some of you might have some information. Can I eat them? I checked out a lot of places online and they all tell...

    Thanks Takala, I'll check that out.... The nuts I got from nutsonline.com, were raw and they were cross contaminated with gluten...I'm not sure why that happens, except they wind up on the same lines with wheat...maybe for packaging...anyway...

    Yes, I agree with all of the previous posters....simplify the diet, nothing processed, gluten is hidden in so many things and they use different names, I myself as diligent as I try to be, get accidently glutened from time to time, we all do. Here is a link to safe and unsafe food lists here on the site that you can download: https://www.celiac.com/categories...

    Yes! Corn can do the same thing as gluten, here is an article that might help. This guy is a veterinarian, and also a lactose/celiac sufferer and writes about the "four horses" gluten, soy, corn and dairy. He uses a lot of words, I personally find him very interesting, but you might want to skim down through some of the sauce and get to the meat of it......

    Protein promotes healing of all kinds, it also helps to maintain a stable blood sugar. There is a problem with blood sugar when it is fluctuating all the time, this is not healthy and promotes fat storage, which leads to other problems. When insulin spikes blood sugar drops, hunger strikes, fat is stored, it's a cycle that repeats and repeats and causes metabolic...

    Yes fluid retention is one of the first signs for me and once you stop the gluten in a few days you will notice yourself peeing a lot more, especially at night, at least for me....grrrr....lol. You will recover but it takes time....hang in there...one day at a time....
  14. linda7276
    It took 5 full weeks for me to recover from a week of gluten. I was well and then convinced myself that gluten was not my problem (before my testing)...will never do that again. Everyone is different but please feel good knowing that every thing you are doing to improve your health adds up and it does take time. Sometimes when we start to feel good we forget...

    Most all nuts are cross contaminated because they are manufactured on lines where wheat is processed, and you cannot trust the label to tell you that, though some will. I would love to hear from someone who can tell me about nuts that are not cross contaminated, including peanuts, and peanut butter. I ordered bunches of nuts ($120.00 worth) from...

    Hi Roda, I recently had the same experience with the gluten-free oats..... I noticed fluid retention first...same as I get with Gluten, and also had some pretty bad fatigue, and irritability, which I think was fluid in my brain, it doesn't just get in the feet, it's everywhere, anyway, I quit eating them and no more problems. I think it relates to the...

    It's amazing how varied the symptoms of gluten sensitivity are, this is part of why it's difficult for some people to realize that it's their problem, they think if they don't have the same symptoms as you or I, then they don't have a problem with gluten, but we all know that gluten affects us all is some similar ways, but also in many not so typical ways...
  18. linda7276
    My symptoms are slow and subtle, fluid retention is one of the first things I notice along with slight numbness and tingling in my extremities, bloating, fatigue, bone pain, and the s/s of malabsortion return...will not gross you out with the details.... I also have unexplained anemia, which I'm hoping that now that I am not doing dairy anymore, that that...

    I know what you mean, I didn't read mine either...duh....when I saw the word Maltodextrin....I was kind of dumbfounded, better late than never I guess. I'll have to check our health food store for that brand, thanks....
  20. linda7276
    I recently found out that the Stevia I have been using, which has Maltodextrin in it, is not gluten-free....which explains why I was much much better but not totally well. According to some lists if the Maltodextrin is manufactured in the US it is gluten-free. I discovered that the Stevia I have been using is from Columbia, so I went to their website to check...

    ps...the above comment (samma) is from me, I had to create a second account because I couldn't remember my log in...but I got it straightened out...

    The above post (samma) was actually mine, I had to create another account because I forgot my log on....sorry for the confusion...

    Hi Jack, thank you again, it sounds like you really suffered, I hope that's all a thing of the past, thank you for sharing that with me. Our bodies are so complex, and everything is so inter-related that it can be difficult to pinpoint the exact source of pain, this is why it's difficult for me to say it's my gallbladder. I don't think it is because I don...

    Thanks Rachel, so if I'm understanding you correctly, then the soy could have been a part of the problem leading to a leaky gut, in my case, and along with Candida. And who knows what else. I do think that with enzymes and probiotics, and proper diet, that I can heal and who knows what the possibilities are after that. For everything we know, there is so...
  25. linda7276
    Way to go Sarah, this is the best way to get something done!! Good for you being "proactive" it's one thing to complain, but another to take action, and you did! As Rachel stated, this company seems to be concerned about their actions, as well as their communication, as is evidenced in their timely and thorough response to you, and their willingness...
