For those of you out there avoiding gluten AND soy, I wanted to let you know about a delicious alternative to soy sauce. It's called Coconut Aminos, and is completely soy and gluten free! Here is the website and information: Open Original Shared Link It is also dairy free and vegan! You can do a search for a store locator to find the nearest...

Okay...I *think* I hit the jackpot, per the labeling (assuming it's correct, although I've had no problems yet)... Trident White Wintergreen (in the Teal package) Other Trident White flavors DO have soy lecithin, but this flavor does not seem to have that wretched ingredient. It is not listed in the ingredients, and I have not had any ill-effects...

Ha! Don't apologize! I appreciate that you took the time to write all that. I got brave and bought some Lundberg rice cakes (apple cinnamon). I'm still not sure I'm totally okay on rice, but it's really helped my blood sugar crashes. I saw a dietician this week and she's okay with my calories and activity level, so yay! How're you doing?

Sadly basically all gum has soy lecithin in it. . . I swear that stealthy soy sneaks up in the craziest of places! It seems as though soy oil and lecithin are in basically every single processed food out there. Thank heavens for companies like Enjoy Life and Udi's that guarantee no gluten OR soy, among other common allergens/intolerances!

ARCHIVED Gluten-Free Rice Milk?
BeautifulDay replied to BeautifulDay's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Thank you, thank you! Those are all great ideas! The only other thing I would use "milk" for is on cereal...of which i can only eat Rice Chex, and I don't mind eating it dry (with a little cinnamon-sugar ). So seems like your suggestions will cover me for milk in all other applications! I have not tried to make rice milk myself, but that recipe looks... -
I can DEFINITELY relate!! I cannot really tolerate fat at all and have been gluten-free for over a year and a half. It can be frustrating knowing that our body needs fat to be healthy. . . if you have any insight or ideas that have worked for you, do let me know! Good luck and happy fat-free healing!

I just have to say that if you are sensitive to soy as well as gluten, Chipotle is a NO-GO! They cook EVERYTHING in soybean oil, so nothing is safe. Just wanted to warn - eat at your own risk Haven't had Q'doba, but sounds like it may be a better option for the soy-sensitive out there Happy dining!

ARCHIVED Gluten-Free Rice Milk?
BeautifulDay replied to BeautifulDay's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I don't live by a Wegman's. But I'll be keeping my eyes open for Good Karma and Pacific! What other milks do people suggest? I cannot have dairy, soy, peanuts or tree nuts (no almond milk, sadly), or high amounts of fat (coconut milk products often make me sick because of this). Any thoughts would be GREAT! Thanks!! -
ARCHIVED To Trust Or Not To Trust?
BeautifulDay replied to BeautifulDay's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
It is so hard to trust companies and restaurants, especially after we have all been betrayed time and again. . .I guess it's all about weighing the benefits vs. the costs. Is the risk worth it? In my mind, it's often not. As far as Erewhon Gluten Free Brown Rice Cereal...I've had it and have not had a reaction that I know of. Have you been noticing problems... -
I cannot tolerate ANY soy, including soy oil or soy lecithin. Besides Glee Gum (which I don't prefer), does anyone know of any gluten-free AND soy-free chewing gum?? Thanks!

ARCHIVED Is A Negative Biopsy Final?
BeautifulDay replied to xabbar's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
I've had both a negative blood test and a negative small intestine biopsy (upper endoscopy). I definitely have Celiac disease and suffer from the related food intolerances as well. I say the proof is in what happens when you change the diet. (You know the old saying: if it walks like a duck, talks like a duck, and looks like a duck, it's probably a duck... -
