Valley Fresh

i have been eating something wrong i think...

it might be Valley Fresh chicken which comes in a can. i have been eating the white and dark meat combination can. anyone ever have problems with this product. i thought it was regular chicken so i switched to organic, breasts and all; but something still is not right here. it's hard to pinpoint when it is one thing that screws evrything else up.

i eat fresh vegetables; very little places i could be getting either gluten or something else bothering. i was not too bad and getting good in fact now i can't get back. i eat fresh seafood and canned tuna and canned salmon at times. the tuna has no soy or nothing else. salmon is just salmon and salt. contemplating orgainc veggies too, a switch that is, but i have had such great success with them i'm leaning towards one of my meats.

could i have a chikcen allergy? a meat allergy? could anyone offer some insight. i can't get past meat and veggies stage, can't get to a point to try things that is, keeping running into these roadblocks.

I eat Valley Fresh all the time with no problem and I have a problem with a lot of chicken and chicken broth. But you might want to check out the chicken allergy or intolerance idea.

i'm not sure what is going on here then. had a bad week with my bladder all flared up again. seem to start last weekend, maybe further and thought it was the regular chicken or this turkey; both should be ok save for the fact they are not organic. then after a really bad week saturday i wake up all red like i been glutened!! terrible irritated day, went to the bathroom alot and felt good as the day went on; and sunday here still out of sorts, my armpits are burning (deoderant is fine), knot in my right side high hip, tired and groggy, still feel annoyed and i can't imagine where it came from; i realize this could be a week in the making and just now rearing it sugly head, but man...i have not the faintest clue. i'm stumped i feel like i need a whole new wardrobe of food!! i need plain meats too and not alot of my whole food stores carry anything that has not been seasoned or spiced. all that i got is chicken breasts and i am terrified of of the bird. i'm not so sure that salmon is working either. i just keep hoping that it is one thing screwing up evrything else--but i cannot figure it out.

      Hi Trents-Thanks for reading and sharing insight.  We need all the help we can get and it's super appreciated.  She is currently dairy, soy and oat free and those have mostly been completely excluded from her diet since the diagnosis (we tried going back on dairy and oats at different times for a bit, didn't see a significant difference but have now cut out again just to be extra safe since her issues are so persistent.  We did cut eggs out for about 3 months and didn't notice significant difference there, either.  The only one we haven't specifically cut out completely for any portion of time is corn, however, we've kept it minimal in all of our diets for a long time.  She definitely goes 3-4 weeks without any corn products at times and still has issues, but I'm guessing that's not long enough to confirm that it isn't causing issues.   We could definitely try to go longer just to double check.  Thanks again!

      Ok so know one knows about cross reactions from yeast,corn, potatoes, eggs, quinoa ,chocolate, milk, soy, and a few more I forgot.  There all gluten free but share a similar structure to gluten proteins. I use to be able to eat potatoes but now all of a sudden I was stumped and couldn't figure it out when I got shortness of breath like I was suffocating.  Then figured it out it was the potatoes.  They don't really taste good anyways. Get the white yams and cherry red 🍠 yams as a sub they taste way better. It's a cross reaction! Google foods that cross react with celiacs.  Not all of them you will cross react too. My reactions now unfortunately manifest in my chest and closes everything up . Life sucks then we die. Stay hopeful and look and see different companies that work for you . Lentils from kroger work for me raw in the bag and says nothing about gluten free but it works for me just rinse wellllll.....don't get discouraged and stay hopeful and don't pee off god

      Hi Lily Ivy. Thanks for responding. Did you have withdrawal? If so, what was it like and for how long?

      Welcome to the forum, @Doris Barnes! You do realize don't you that the "gluten free" label does not mean the same thing as "free of gluten"? According to FDA regulations, using the "gluten free" label simply means the product does not contain gluten in excess of 20 ppm. "Certified Gluten Free" is labeling deployed by an independent testing group known as GFCO which means the product does not contain gluten in excess of 10 ppm. Either concentration of gluten can still cause a reaction in folks who fall into the more sensitive spectrum of the celiac community. 20 ppm is safe for most celiacs. Without knowing how sensitive you are to small amounts of gluten, I cannot speak to whether or not the Hu Kitechen chocolates are safe for you. But it sounds like they have taken sufficient precautions at their factory to ensure that this product will be safe for the large majority of celiacs.

      Buying choclate, I recently boght a bar from Hu Kitchen (on your list of recommended candy. It says it is free of gluten. However on the same package in small print it says "please be aware that the product is produced using equipment that also processes nuts, soy, milk and wheat. Allergen cleans are made prior to production". So my question is can I trust that there is no cross contamination.  If the allergy clean is not done carefully it could cause gluten exposure. Does anyone know of a choclate brand that is made at a facility that does not also use wheat, a gluten free facility. Thank you.
