Can anyone tell me which brands of Ham are safe or what I need to look for when buying a whole ham. I am trying to buy a whole ham to cook for the family. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks!

With ham you're pretty much all right as long as you stay away from honeybaked or commercially glazed. The glaze always has wheat. I've used Kroger, Gwaltney, Thornapple Valley and Smithfield.

Hormel ham is good and hormel company offers a gluten free list. It can be found here: Open Original Shared Link I tried to copy and paste the few ham related items that I saw. Hope it helps.

Very good to know...I always cook turkey and ham at Thanksgiving and have ordered my "completely free from anything" fresh Amish turkey, thinking I would just serve just that this year - the whole house was in an uproar so now I need the ham.

Richard, do you know of any of the gluten-free hams are spiral sliced are corn free too? That could really narrow my search down...thanks.

I don't know about corn in hams.

Thanks anyway - you would just be surprised at the items with corn syrup

Corn syrup is in a lot of foods that are sweet. I don't know how you are going to get around it with a spiral ham....unless the manufacturer uses brown sugar and/or molasses only. You'd have to call them.

I had communication with COOK's (ham) last Spring and they advised that their ham was gluten-free.

Just recalled that Hormel may offer a spiral sliced gluten-free ham....

      My gastroenterologist had me incorporate VSL#3 to help with similar issues. It can take a long time to heal. I also found adding kiwi to my diet was soothing to my stomach. For me, it was important to avoid other inflammatory foods. Dairy, corn, etc, were aggravating to my stomach. Bone broth has been another life saver for me over the years. I do know I continue to be sensitive. If I were to have dairy for two days in a row it would be like adding a log to a fire to my sensitive system. I do also have issues with acid reflux though. (Barrett's esophagus) I also stay up after eating. They say to for 3 hours but even 2 is helpful. Keep us posted on how you are. Hope you get some relief soon.

      It’s not uncommon for people with celiac disease, especially those undiagnosed for a long time, to experience lasting digestive issues even after going gluten-free. The damage caused by years of inflammation in the small intestine can sometimes lead to other conditions like delayed gastric emptying (gastroparesis), acid reflux, or food intolerances. Staying upright after eating can help with digestion, particularly if reflux is an issue, as lying down can exacerbate symptoms. Greasy or fatty foods can be harder to digest, especially if your digestive system is still healing or if you’ve developed sensitivities. It’s important to discuss these ongoing symptoms with a gastroenterologist, as there might be additional treatments or dietary adjustments that could help. You’re definitely not alone in feeling like your stomach needs extra care, and hearing others’ experiences can be validating. One thing you should do is look at your diet again, and be sure that it is 100% gluten-free. Choline is a supplement that may help you with your symptoms, so consider this as well. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.

      Multiple times. Have had several emptying studies and endos that come back normal.

      Welcome to the forum, @RobHicks! Actually, celiac disease damages the upper part of the small bowel rather than the stomach. It's the part of the intestine right below the stomach. Since being diagnosed, have you had a follow-up endoscopy with biopsy to check to see if there is good healing in the small bowel lining since beginning the gluten free journey? You may have something else going on besides celiac disease. From what you describe, it sounds like your stomach is not emptying properly. Have you presented this problem to a GI doc?

      Still waiting.  The Barrett's I've had for 5-6 years. The possible/probable Celiac is new this year.  Not sure why that's popped up, but there it is.
