yeah, most soy sauce is full of wheat. however, there are some brands of gluten-free soy sauce available (all of the ones i have seen are organic) that taste exactly the same.

Walmart's brand, Great Value Soy Sauce is gluten-free. It is actually labeled gluten-free on the back. (And it's only about 88 cents a bottle.)

La Choy has a gluten free soy sauce. Also, there is a brand called San-J that makes a wheat-free one as well. Hope that helps.

Look for "wheat free tamari" sauces too. Tastes great. I pack a tiny nalgene bottle of it when going out for sushi.

you could call different chinese restuarants in your area and see if they can make gluten free dishes. a local chinese place called asian grill in my area can use gluten free soy sauce if you ask. the pepper steak is great!! :P

I like the wheat free Tamari sauce, but wasn't sure if wheat free meant Gluten free.

I really like Bragg's Liquid Amino better than any of gluten-free soy sauces.

For anyone in Canada, VH soy sauce is gluten-free. It is widely available in grocery stores at a price comparable to other soy sauces, but it is only sold in Canada. :(

San-J wheat free tamari is my favorite (well was, when I could eat soy)

Its a little less salty than regular soy sauce.

Whole Foods has gluten-free tamari and it tastes great! I put this stuff on everything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! well... not everything but you get the picture. All of my family uses it too altho i am the only 1 wit celiac. they all say it tastes like regular soy sauce.

I think it's the San-J kind... I should know, i always have a bottle on the kitchen table.

If anyone knows where to get small bottles of any gluten-free soy sauce, plz tell, so i can take it to sushi places wit me. thanx!

In the U.S. any soy sauce that doesn't list wheat is going to be gluten-free.

I second that, Braggs is a great product. A number of chefs here in Kona have switched over to using it in their restaurant operations.

If you live in the Midwest, Hy-Vee brand soy sauce is gluten-free.

I use Eden Organic Tamari Soy Sauce. I buy it at the local health food store, but you can also order it online.

      Gluten Free Daily Vitamins for Kids w/ Celiac

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I haven't heard of them before, but a significant portion of dietary supplements are produced by a handful of large contract manufacturers. These companies have the facilities, expertise, and certifications to produce supplements at scale, making them attractive partners for brands that don’t have their own manufacturing capabilities. I doubt Forvia manufactures them directly, so it is hard to know if they are just doing clever marketing to a certain malabsorption crowd, or they actually have unique product.

      Not sure if this is Celiac or just a gluten-free intolerance

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      That’s an interesting observation! The timing you mention does raise questions about the relationship between modern wheat varieties and the emergence of Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS). Norman Borlaug’s work on high-yield, disease-resistant wheat during the Green Revolution significantly increased global food production, but it also led to changes in the composition of wheat, including higher gluten content to improve baking qualities. While NCGS was formally recognized as a condition in the 2010s (https://bmcmedicine.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/1741-7015-10-13 and https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3820047/) , it’s important to note that the awareness and diagnosis of gluten-related disorders have evolved over time. Some researchers suggest that modern wheat breeding practices, along with changes in food processing and gut health, may contribute to the rise in gluten sensitivity. However, the exact mechanisms behind NCGS are still not fully understood, and it remains a debated topic in the scientific community. It’s also worth considering that increased awareness and improved diagnostic tools have played a role in identifying conditions like NCGS that may have existed but were previously unrecognized. The interplay between genetic, environmental, and dietary factors makes this a complex issue, and more research is needed to fully understand the connections.

      My Adult daughter is blaming me for her "possible" Celiac disease.

      By trents · Posted

      @Marie70, it is very important that your daughter not begin experimenting with eating gluten free until all testing for celiac disease is complete. Doing so will invalidate the testing. Normally, the testing involves two stages. The first stage is blood antibody testing as per the article linked by Scott above. As you can see from the article, there are a number of tests that can be ordered when diagnosing celiac disease but most physicians will not order a complete panel. At the very minimum, your daughter should request two antibody tests, "total IGA" and "tTG-IGA". The tTG-IGA is considered the centerpiece of celiac disease testing but if total IGA is low (i.e., if she is IGA deficient), this will result in an artificially low tTG-IGA score and possibly a false negative. Many general practitioners are not very knowledgeable about celiac disease testing so we have found we have to be a little assertive in order to get proper testing done. I don't know under the relational circumstances how much input you will have with your daughter about these things but I thought I'd pass the info on to you anyway. The second stage of celiac disease testing involves an endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining which is then sent to a lab for microscopic analysis. This checks for damage to the small bowel lining and is confirmation if any of the blood antibody tests are positive. It is also considered to be the gold standard of celiac disease diagnosis. Again, should her antibody testing be positive, your daughter would still need to be consuming gluten until after the endoscopy/biopsy is complete.

      Did I outgrow celiac

      By Klsdurbin · Posted

      No!!! Celiacs disease does not go away. You can’t outgrow it, and if all proper diagnostic procedures (blood test and endoscopy) were followed when you were 8, it’s almost impossible to be mis-diagnosed.    stoms and reactions to gluten do change over time, but the fact you have celiacs does not.    I think that a lot of people misunderstand that the goal to managing your celiacs is to eventually test negative for celiacs. This does not mean it went away, it means that your gluten-free diet is working and you’re no longer producing the anti-bodies that will wreak havoc on your health.    if you can access the medical records from when you were 8 and have a GI doctor review them, I would highly recommend you do this.
