Safe Rice Milk


krisb

Recommended Posts

What rice milk is safe for gluten? My son has been having belly problems and I just read that Rice dream has barley. I've been using Shoprite brand. I wonder if he is getting gluten. I'm going to call Shoprite and ask but they are clueless about anything I ask. I was using Rice dream also on and off if it's on sale. I know his belly is reacting to something and I'm just trying to figure it out.

I don't have any problems with Whole Foods 365 Organic Rice Milk, Wild Oats brand Rice Milk or Lundberg's Drink Rice.

I know someone already posted Lundberg's ricemilk, but I just want to add that I LOVE THE TASTE OF IT! I go through 3 cartons a week! Is that bad? :rolleyes: hahah I don't care actually. I get the vanilla kind, but the original tastes good too.

Yep, Lundenberg farms rice milk is good. I find that I have to watch my intake though b.c it is high carb and it seems to make me hungrier sooner than other foods. Enjoy!

I can't seem to find any of these rice milks anywhere. I tried to find it online but i can't. I don't have a wholefoods near me. I have a health foods store but they only have Rice dream and Garden of Eden soy and rice.

Hi - This is my first time posting here and I'm wondering about this Rice Dream situation. What I found is that on the Rice Dream "Original" package, there is no barley, but on the "Enriched" brand there is -- and they have clearly stated the amount of gluten in the product on the packaging. I have assumed that the "Original" is okay to drink.

Am I wrong? I've been drinking this every day for quite a while now. Over the past week I've developed some kind of inflammation in my stomach, though, and am wondering if this could be part of the problem.

I've been gluten-free since 1997 and am working towards becoming dairy free as well.

Thanks.

Kathy-

Go here to read their statement and see a gluten-free list: Open Original Shared Link They list no rice dream beverage as safe.

What about Westsoy rice milk? Is that safe? The company didn't get back to me yet. It's from Hanes I think.

jenvan - where do you get the rice chips?? whole foods? i saw them on the lundberg website - but havent found them in stores. they look so good.

I believe westsoy is okay. At least i think. I drank it without any problem.

Hi!

Have you ever tried the Blue Diamond brand almond milk. I too do not have access to some of the gluten free rice milks, but my grocery store carries the almond milk. The chocolate is really good you might want to try it.

Cheryl : :D

EdenSoy has a rice/soy blend that clearly states gluten-free. Claire

I get my chips at either Wild Oats, another local health food store or Kroger--ours has a 'natural' section with the chips. I thought Whole Foods has them too...pretty sure I bought some at one of the Whole Foods in Chicago. You'll really like them :)

      You're welcome! Be sure the patient eats at least ten grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks prior to repeating antibody testing.   Some people unconsciously reduce the amount of gluten in their diet because the feel unwell.  Three grams of gluten per day is sufficient to produce symptoms.  Only at ten grams or more is the immune system provoked to raise the antibody production high enough so that the antibodies leave the digestive tract and enter the blood stream where they can be measured.   Read the comments below the article...

      Thanks for your response and thoughts. Total IgA is normal. HLA DQ2/DQ8 came as heterozygous and the interpretation of the lab that the risk of coeliac disease is mild to moderate. Thyroid function test is normal. I agree that the best way is to repeat tTG antibodies in 6 months time as the result was not massively high.

      Welcome to the forum, @Wamedh Taj-Aldeen, How is the patient's thyroid?   You could check for thiamine deficiency which can cause the thyroid to either become hyper or hypo.  TTg IgA can be high in both hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism.  tTg IgA can also be high if patient is taking medications to stimulate the thyroid as in hypothyroidism.   Thanks for visiting!  Keep us posted!

      Welcome to the forum, @Rejoicephd, I found the Autoimmune Protocol diet (Dr. Sarah Ballantyne) extremely helpful in getting my health back.  The AIP diet is very strict, removing any possibly irritating foods and allowing time for the digestive tract to heal, then other foods are added back in with less risk of reaction.   Keep us posted on your progress!

      Hello, @Cat M, welcome to the forum! I noticed you are low in ferritin and thiamine as well as other nutritional deficiencies already.  Deficiencies in iron and thiamine affect your body's ability to make antibodies.  Since you do have symptoms, nutritional deficiencies evidence of malabsorption, MTHFR and one celiac gene,  I'm suspecting you do have Celiac disease.   Can you consult a gastroenterologist?  Or ask your doctor to do so.   Gluten Sensitivity can be a precursor of Celiac disease in people with Celiac genes.  Since you've already got symptoms of Celiac disease and evidence malabsorption, an endoscopy with biopsies would be beneficial.   It's can be so frustrating getting a diagnosis because doctors are not familiar with Celiac disease.  Sending you encouragement! Keep us posted on your progress!
