Eggs

On another bored, someone posted that "it has been determined that eggs have wheat and soy in the yolk"

I've never seen this information anywhere and was curious as to where this came from, the truth behind it and if anyone had an information?

It just kinda baffled me and I'd like to know more about it!

I have never heard that....I am not sure how that would happen... I believe that is probably a myth but maybe another member here can shed some more light.

People make assumptions. Often they are wrong. Just because a chicken eats wheat grain does not mean that the egg has gluten. I eat eggs with ZERO problems. I buy organic, free range vegetarian 4 grain feed eggs. I am sure one of those 4 grains is wheat because it is cheap. One is surely corn. I have issues with corn, but not eggs. I have issues with gluten, but not eggs. Gluten gives me vertigo and headache. Eggs dont.

I did some research online for 10 minutes and found NOTHING to support this. But I did find this recipe that looks yummy :)

All commercially produced chicken feed contains one or more gluten grains and usually soy but I think it's irresponsible for that person to make a claim that eggs contain gluten without backing it up. I own chickens and eat many eggs. I've spent a great deal of time researching poultry nutrition and discussing it with our extension service and I just don't see how that's possible and wouldn't believe it unless I saw multiple reputable studies on the subject.

I also read the board where that was posted. My guess but I think that someone is trying to sell their product.

I eat eggs, and they haven't glutened me. Some chemicals, hormones, pesticides, etc get into meat/eggs/dairy when fed to the animal, but gluten is a protein, it isn't a chemical and shouldn't transfer into the animals eggs, as far as I know.

if thats the case, i better walk around in a bubble.

I would think that protien (gluten) is broken down into a differant form before it is absorbed by the animal. It would be impossible for a whole protien to make its way into the chickens egg. The egg has protien of it's own. besides, wouldn't they have to label that eggs contain wheat?

pretty rediculous... I dont believe a lot of things people say.

My mom would say, "Consider the source!", and "Don't believe everything you read!" It's not true, and that's all there is to it!

      Chronic mildly elevated liver enzymes was what eventually led to my celiac diagnosis but it took thirteen years to ferret that out and by that time I had developed osteopenia.

      Thank you! Yes, I have celiac disease, lupus and Sjögrens. My ALT and AST have been chronically slightly elevated for a couple years and recently had an acute kidney injury (thinking it was from an antibiotic) with increased Lipase. So my primary doctor referred me to a kidney specialist. Other kidney labs are normal.

      My test results for TissueTransglutaminase IgA Antibody test came back normal. Like spot on normal. I do not have celiac! My problems are stemming from this H Pylori infection.

      Reaction to gluten or gastro bug?

      Thank you both so much for taking the time to reply. Cristiana - yes the rashes seemed to resolve when he came off gluten too. I haven’t seen those pictures before, thanks for pointing me to them. I’d say his rash isn’t like the more severe photos which are scabbed and very bumpy. His rash is more like lots and lots of patches of eczema than spots...

      Welcome to the forum, @Lburnett! Have you been officially diagnosed with celiac disease? I'm just trying to get a handle on the health context from which your question comes.

      Chronic mildly elevated liver enzymes was what eventually led to my celiac diagnosis but it took thirteen years to ferret that out and by that time I had developed osteopenia.  Yes, you've got a lot going on there in the way of autoimmune disorders and all of them we now know have a connection with celiac disease. It is true that autoimmune disorders tend to cluster. But it sounds like you are getting medical attention and keeping an eye on things.

His rash is more like lots and lots of patches of eczema than spots. No we have no celiac in the family to my knowledge, though my mum and sister both have autoimmune diseases and wheat sensitivity. I think you’re right and I’ll have to do another trial to confirm if it was the wheat. I’ve been hoping all day that I come down with the bug to rule out the wheat reaction! But the rest of the family are absolutely fine.    Trents - thank you for the info regarding the genes. That’s very interesting and I’d definitely consider doing that as a way to rule it out without putting him back on wheat. I also didn’t know celiacs were commonly intolerant to dairy and soy. I think you’re right and there is definitely enough factors to show something is going on. I think I’ll do a repeat trial of the wheat challenge and if he reacts again I shall look into the genetic testing.    Thank you both so much for your time. Becky
