Anybody have any confirmation from their lists as to whether Lea and Perrins Worchesthire sauce is gluten free in Canada?

Thanks!

On the Canadian bottle I have (which has been in the cupboard for a long time), the first ingredient is malt vinegar. :( It is my understanding that the US version is different. This one is made in Canada by E. D. Smith under license.

Karen, I haven't found a gluten-free worcestershire in Canada yet, but Lorka150 can get Edward's and Sons. I think she is in Ontario as well. I make this one. It's smelly to make (boiling vinegar, ick!) but tastes all right.

Homemade Worcestershire Sauce

1/2 cup apple cider vinegar

2 tablespoons soy sauce

2 tablespoons water

1 tablespoon brown sugar

1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

1/4 teaspoon dry mustard

1/4 teaspoon onion powder

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

1/8 teaspoon cinnamon

1/8 teaspoon pepper

Place all ingredients in a medium saucepan and stir thoroughly.

Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Simmer 1 minute. Cool.

Store in the refrigerator.

Makes about 3/4 cup.

Shake well before using.

Heinz makes one that may be gluten free. It has soya sauce in it, but lists the ingredients in that soya sauce: water, salt, hydrolyzed soy protein, corn syrup, caramel. There is nothing else on the label that appears to be a risk, but it is probably best to contact the company for confirmation first.

Edit: Okay, scratch that...apparently Lea & Perrins is now owned by Heinz in Canada...and I cannot find the "Heinz version" of worcestershire sauce on their website. I'm thinking I've got a really old bottle here and it needs to be pitched out. :P Otherwise, Heinz states that they cannot guarantee any products, other than their ketchups, are gluten free.

Can you get Organic Wheat-Free Worcestershire Sauce by Edward & Sons (under the wizard label) is also Gluten Free.

The Edward and Son's one is everywhere around here.

Often, if health food stores carry anything Edward and Son's, they'll add it to a shipment.

I can send that (or Lea and Perrin's) to anyone if they'd like. Just let me know.

      Also ask for a test of vitamin D levels. I agree with knitty kitty that cyclical Thiamine deficiency may be the cause of your cycle.  Celiac Disease causes multiple vitamin and mineral deficiencies.   Itchy palms can be a symptom of iodine deficiency.  Low iodine levels can lead to dry, flaky skin on the hands and  body due to the disruption of normal skin cell regeneration caused by a lack of thyroid hormone production, which relies on iodine. Other symptoms are   fatigue, weight gain, sensitivity to cold. I take between 600 and 1200 mcg a day Liquid Iodine. It has improved my healing.  Strong Iodine and Lugols Solution are other options.  Start low and build up over time. Between 1970 and 1988 the dietary intake of Americans dropped by 50%. Perhaps this is why some can tolerate the bread in Europe?

      Be cautious with vitamin D if you are female and post-menopausal.  I had to decrease my D dosage from 4000 IU/day to 2000 IU because of hormonal acne and unwanted facial hair - likely from an increased testosterone level from the D.  Finally relief!  I hope to keep my D level below 50 nm/l now.

      Do you eat processed gluten free foods?

      You may want to wear an N-95 mask to filter out any possible gluten, at least when you handle the flour.

      It sounds like you've been on quite the journey trying to understand your symptoms and diagnosis. It’s great that you’re planning to consult a doctor for allergy testing, as distinguishing between a wheat allergy, celiac disease, or another gluten-related condition is crucial for moving forward. The fact that you’ve tolerated barley and wheat products without recent symptoms might suggest something other than celiac disease, but as you noted, the absence of immediate symptoms doesn’t necessarily rule out potential underlying damage, especially if celiac disease is still a possibility. It’s worth discussing whether you should undergo updated testing, such as genetic testing for celiac markers (HLA-DQ2/DQ8), or even revisiting an endoscopy if appropriate. In the meantime, keep documenting your experiences with food and symptoms—it could provide valuable insights for your healthcare provider. It’s also important to test for other possible causes of your original symptoms, like IBS, food intolerances, or even other autoimmune conditions, to ensure nothing is overlooked.
