Hydrolyzed Soy Protein?

Recommended Posts

My favorite salad dressing has hydrolyzed soy protein in it and I am not sure if the is gluten-free or not. I know that hydrolyzed vegetable protein and hydrolyzed plant protein are NOT gluten-free but I can't seem to find out anything about the soy protein.

As far as I know the soy is fine.

I have always been told to avoid hydrolyzed soy, so I do.

I have always been steered away from all the Hydrolyzed rpotiens because I was told they were not gluten-free.

Just curious... what is the dressing? I only ask because the soy protien is generally used as an emulsifyer, to hold the oil and liquid together. If that's the case with your dressing, I can probably help you come up with a "make it yourself" dressing that's very similar, using other emulsifyers. If its already a dressing you make at home, you can substitute the soy protien with dijon mustard, also egg yolk or whole egg (the vinegar in dressing cooks the egg so don't worry about it being raw) and also mayonaise, or lecithin (comes granulated and is egg protien).

Hope this helps a little. :D

Hydrolyzed soy protein is supposed to be fine; it's when it's hydrolyzed vegetable protein that there is gluten. if there is a 1-800 number on the bottle, call the company and ask. good luck!

Just FYI, I was looking at soup bases today, and I picked up a product that specifically stated in the ingredients Hydrolyzed soy protien (wheat gluten) and was listed as the same ingredient. I don't know if this is all the time... but if it's in one product, its probably in others.

Thanks guys for all the replies. I guess I will stay away from it then. I am looking for a good Italian dressing. Does anyone know any that are gluten-free or Kathleen you got any good recipes?? I really appreciate the help!

Here is a good and universal vinaigrette recipe. You can change the flavor by adding other ingredients or changing the type of vinigar you use or the flavor of the oil. Use roasted garlic or shallots rather than fresh, add purees like roasted red pepper or artichoke, use lemon juicein place of all the vinegar, or orange or lime juice. Add other spices as well, such as chipotle, ground bay leaf, thyme, oregano, etc.

For vinaigrette:

Thanks Kathleen. It sounds great. Can't wait to try it out!!

Hydorilyzed soy protein is in a lot of the "authorized/safe foods" list? I am so confused.

Thomas Apprentice

If your looking for Italian dressing, and don't have the time/or want to make your own another option is Kraft Also, a few of Paul Newman's products are gluten-free. You could email him, or go on his website to find out. Good luck.

Kathleen,

Just curious....what product did you find that had the listing? Everything I Have ever found shows that it is a safe food. Now Im really confused. I wonder if it's just one of those things that will always have to be verified from the manufacturer.

kejohe Apprentice

The product is called Minor's, its a stock/broth concentrate in the form of a paste. It's used a lot in the restaurant industry, so up here it's difficult to find in small quantities, but recently I found it in a one pound tub, and I checked the ingredients... sure enough it lists the hydrolyzed soy protien together with wheat gluten in parenthesese.

Again I'm not saying all product with soy protien are also going to have wheat gluten, I'm just saying be careful. It's never a bad idea to double check with a manufacturer, if only for peace of mind. And like I mentioned above... if it's in one product, it may be in others. At least this product clearly stated the gluten on the label.

Was a bit curious about this and a quick search found a page that shows which Minor's products ARE gluten-free.

(i get the feeling this info was added recently)

A few lines down it says:

NOTE: Gluten Free items in the table below are on a light green background.

Open Original Shared Link < this link will explain why.

Yesterday a doc (I trust) confirmed it for me. But read this and judge for yourself. I wish someone told me this 5 years ago before this happened to me.

Soy is not a source of gluten. Soy is gluten free. Some people react badly to soy. Some say that soy is bad for everyone. Find a food source, and you can find someone, somewhere who will attest that it is bad for you:

Red meat is bad for your heart. Dairy is bad. Sugar is bad. Artificial sweeteners are worse. Wheat is bad. Fruit juice is full of sugar, so it is bad. Alcohol is bad. Corn is bad. MSG is bad. Caffeine is bad. Fish contain bad things from the water, such as mercury. Eggs have cholesterol and are bad. Et cetera.

I'm bad! :(

In New York and Boston slang they say "Bad" is good! [giggle] :wacko:

MySuicidalTurtle--

Just curious, did your dr. tell you this and why? My son is allergic to soy and his dr. said hydrolyzed soy protein was ok. Maybe I should question this? He hasn't been bothered by it in bouillon, but maybe something is being damaged I don't know about? Thanks.

Also psawyer--you are psooo bad :D !!!

      Thanks, Knitty Kitty. No, I'm just taking B12...also a vitamin D3.  For gerd - Pantoprozole. Trents, thanks for the links. There's a lot to digest there (pun intended), I'll have to read those a few times to grasp.

      Because of your anemia, you may not be making sufficient antibodies.  I hope they did a total IgA as well as the tTg IgA, and DGP IgG.  I hope you will share the results with us.  If your body isn't making a large amount of antibodies, then the intestinal damage would be less as well.  The antibodies attacking our own cells is what causes the damage. Anemia, diabetes, and thiamine deficiency can cause false negatives on antibody tests.  Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies besides the ferritin?  Several vitamins and minerals are needed to correct iron deficiency.  Have you been taking any vitamin supplements? Positive on the genes, I see.  Increases the likelihood...  Good job on ramping up on gluten for the test!

      Thanks so much for the link and for your thoughts! I have been on a gluten - containing diet and ramped up my intake in the couple of weeks leading up to the endoscopy, so I’m hopeful that the biopsy is painting an accurate picture.    I don’t quite understand what else might be causing the lymphocytosis and the inflammatory cells/ clusters of plasma cells and struggled to get clarity from the specialist. Perhaps this is common and nothing to be concerned about?!   In case relevant, my mother sister are both celiac, and I have the genes: HLA-DQA1*05:01 = Heterozygous HLA-DQB1*02:01 = Heterozygous Thanks again! 
    • knitty kitty
      Welcome to the forum, @ellyelly! How much gluten were you eating in the weeks prior to the endoscopy?  Many people with indeterminate results had cut down or eliminated gluten from their diet beforehand.  This can lower the autoimmune response and decrease the symptoms (lower antibody levels,  reduced inflammation and intestinal damage may heal).   If you weren't eating a sufficient amount of gluten per day in a minimum of two weeks prior to the endoscopy, you may want to do another gluten challenge with repeat endoscopy. Here's an article that explains, be sure to read the comments.

      Hi all, Such valuable insights shared here - I am so grateful to be able to read along! Thank you all for sharing your wisdom.  I (37yo female) have recently had an endoscopy to screen for celiac given a strong family history and extremely low Ferritin for the past 7 years (not responsive to oral supplements). I am awaiting celiac blood panel results (completed post-endoscopy to provide another piece of the puzzle, I think was just an accidental oversight not doing earlier).  The endoscopy results are as follows: Gastroscopy:  Stomach: Mild gastritis and one 4mm benign appearing inflammatory polyp in the body.  Duodenum: Largely normal but few shallow erosions seen in the duodenal bulb. Microscopy:  1. Sections show specialised and non-specialised gastric mucosa with increased numbers of chronic inflammatory cells within the lamina propria including occasional clusters of plasma cells amounting to mild chronic inflammation. No active inflammation, intestinal metaplasia, dysplasia or malignancy is seen. Immunostains for Helicobacter organisms are negative. 2. Sections show small bowel mucosa with normal villous architecture. A mild non-specific intra-epithelial lymphocytosis is noted at the villous tips of uncertain clinical significance. The lamina propria contains a normal population of chronic inflammatory cells. No granulomas or parasites are seen. There is no dysplasia or malignancy. Conclusion 1. Gastric: Mild chronic inflammation 2. Duodemum: Mild non-specific intraepithelial lymphocytosis with preserved villous architecture.  The GI specialist, assuming blood tests come back normal, feels it is unlikely that it is celiac given the normal villous architecture. Suggested continuing on as usual and monitoring for symptoms etc, screening with blood test if required in the future.  Worth a second opinion or does this seem accurate? Anything else I should be considering? I feel a little lost as to how to best proceed! Thanks again.
