I don't know what the "VH" stands for but does anyone know if this brand is on the safe list ? In Canada Extra Foods (and probably Superstore) carries it. I looked at it the other day & I noticed that it's lower sodium soy sauce doesn't list wheat - is it safe ? They have a variety of other sauces.

The yellow Extra Foods brand doesn't have wheat listed either BUT I think I get a reaction from it. I usually avoid all of the yellow brand stuff anyway because they don't list cross contamination ever - and I'm not phoning for every product ! Fortunately, in Canada, this should change soon...

VH is owned by ConAgra, and they have ConAgra's policy that any gluten will be clearly listed in the ingredients. The majority of VH sauces are gluten-free, including their regular and reduced-sodium soy sauces.

VH products are, to the best of my knowledge, only sold in Canada.

Yahoo ! Another safe product...

I contact companies all the time. It makes me feel better knowing what is safe and what is not. There are a lot of foods that I thought I couldn't eat, but I can! Lots of companies have allergy information on their websites, others I email. There are very few companies that I have had to call. I'm sometimes surprised to see the huge amount of information that is available to us. eg. Safeway will email or mail you list of Safeway brand Gluten-free foods that is about 6 pages long. Nothing wrong with being proactive!

Double check the Teriyaki Sauce. There is nothing on the label to indicate gluten, but when I called a few months ago I was told it was NOT gluten-free.

They do have a website with recipes, etc. but I can't remember off hand if they have a gluten free list/ingredient list on the site.

 In 2015 I contacted them and they PM me on FB and told me ALL their products are gluten free. Over the last few months I have been using their Teriyaki sauce and have become so sick (it manifest in my skin) but because they told me it was gluten free and it states GLUTEN FREE on their labels I believed something else was effecting my Celia disease.  I stopped using the sauce and now my symptoms are subsiding. I do not think it is gluten free as they say it is.

      I'm wondering if this is the same issue some celiacs have with distilled liquors. The complete gluten molecule is too large and heavy to to travel up with the vapor but if their are gluten fragments created by the heat, they may not be and the immune systems of some celiacs still recognize it as gluten. I have no scientific proof for this, just a thought because we have so many forum contributors who still react to these "gluten removed" products.

      Thanks, Scott and Trents. Scott, tastes vary of course. The metallic taste may just be me. As to the filtration efficacy, I can only add that the micron level to remove a smaller protein chain must be pretty tight. What about the impact of hydrolization on the R5 test? I've been told it presents a challenge. Trents, thanks for the clarification. I did not draw this distinction, but can. I honestly didn't perceive the nuance.  Appreciate the feedback from you both.

      I don’t think it matters much if you trust the supplier, I get them from a Welsh company maesyffin mushrooms but I think the guy there has retired from growing now and just resells eu imports so it’s probably the same mushrooms he uses to make the tinctures as the company you posted. It’d probably be cheaper to buy dried and make your own tincture.

      Thank you for your prompt reply. Have others experienced LUQ and L sided back pain when on gluten? Could gluten be irritating the pancreas to cause the slight rise in lipase?

      Wow! I'd be interested to know where you get the tinctures. You can DM me if you wish. There's a Spanish company ... hifasdaterra ... who make high quality medicinal mushrooms in capsule form.
