Going List Crazy!

Anybody else had this experience? (Seems like it from browsing through posts!) I wondering how far you really can trust all those lists of gluten-free food - whatever the source (message boards, manufacturers, etc etc). I understand the cross contamination issues, hidden sources, ever-changing ingredients. But I swear I've gotten glutened from (by?) several products that're supposed to be fine. Two biggies lately have been Newman's Ranch dressing (really bad) and Sargento Parmesan/Romano grated cheese. I'm also suspicious of some of the Boar's Head meats & cheeses. TCBY frozen yogurt.

I guess the smartest thing is just to trust your own body, but it gets expensive trying things you have to throw out - and worse, it's pretty much impossible to heal if you keep getting ambushed by so called gluten-free products. (Sorry for the rant. Feeling icky today.) But thanks for any clues you can provide!

I agree, there are so many lists it is hard to keep track. I've checked them out, erased the foods that I don't use, which shortens the lists and eliminated a list that is more than 6 months old. I stick fairly close to companies like Kraft that I can trust and of course foods that has gluten free right on the label. And Yes, by all means ... trust your own body. I'm fortunate that if I buy something to try and it doesn't agree with me, my hubby eats it. He says he's like Mikey .. he eats everything! :lol:

I sure hope you are feeling better soon!

How long have you been gluten-free? The reason I ask is it might not be the products. My experience was that I would be eating products that were safe but still getting sick. The reason, my villi were not healed. I saw some improvement in month 5-6. However, before that I would go in and out of feeling bad. I was never able to connect with a specific food. It was just taking my body a long time to heal.

Of course products do change and it is highly possible that you have been glutened. Just thought I would throw out another possiblility.

I do hope you feel better soon.

I have seen a few errors on a list. One was it said something was NOT gluten free and I got an email from the company saying it was gluten-free. So best to check out some stuff on your own!

I never trust something that someone else has made up. I may use a list as a reference to get me started in the right direction. However I always go ahead and call the company on my own or check their website to double check the gluten free status. People are well meaning with lists, and lists are great, but you are the only person who is responsible for your health. You have to be ontop of it.

      This is really helpful  I had not considered sugar alcohols or inulin as triggers. Thanks for the practical baking tips too color coding and baking G F first makes a lot of sense.

Thiamax (TTFD) plus a B-complex, and if you want benfotiamine, the Life Extension formula covers that at ~100 mg.

      High fiber can definitely cause sudden GI distress especially if it’s a new addition but accidental gluten exposure can feel similar. Keeping a simple food/symptom log and introducing new gluten-free foods one at a time can really help you spot the pattern.

      Thanks for asking  I’m mainly looking for gluten-free staples and snacks. Any recommendations for brands or go-to items would be appreciated.

      sorry a bit confused so I should take my B complex along with Objective Nutrients Thiamax for TTFD but what about a Benfotiamine to take. The Life extensions contains Benfotiamine and Thiamine together or im confusing myself. I am trying to see if I take Thiamax what should I take for Benfotiamine. Thanks EDITING after further research I see ones water soluble ones fat soluble. So I guess 100MG as you suggested of Life Extension contains Benfotiamine and Thiamine Hydrochloride. and the Objective Nutrients Thiamax contains TTFD.     would work for me.

      I put on over 12kg by eating protein with every meal, 3 to 5 times a day. Eggs, Chicken, Tuna, Turkey etc. I stay away from too much red meat as it can be inflammatory. Scott is correct. I've come across a bunch of Coeliac PT's on Tiktok and Instagram. They all say the same thing, the key is getting enough protein and consistency.
