Glutino Products : Reaction?


raisin

Recommended Posts

It seems like every time I eat a seemingly-safe Glutino brand item, i start feeling sick. Their bread, cereal, and everything else sets me off. They have soy in many of their products, but I don't buy those, and I don't react to trace amounts of dairy so it's unlikely for soy.

Does anyone else have a reaction to their products? What causes the reaction?

I've never had a problem with Glutino products. Although they are not my favorites it's often all we can get in Hawaii.

Have you made sure there are no cross contamination issues with ovens or toasters?

Yes, I have a 100% gluten-free kitchen, even my paper towels are gluten-free. There is no chance for CC in my toaster or oven, and their cereal also makes me feel bad.

We have been using many Glutino products for years now, and I never have had a problem with any of them.

You might want to check their allergen chart and see if you can find a pattern. You might be sensitive to one of the ingredients. Open Original Shared Link

Thank you, but that was the first thing I checked, and it was not the problem.

Is it possible that you are sensitive to corn / cornstarch? Glutino bagels and all of their bakery products contain corn in some form. Corn gives me a very similar reaction to glutening (not always digestive issues), so in the beginning of my gluten-free diet I thought I was getting glutened a lot, until I excluded corn from my diet.

Someone suggested that to me months ago, when I first noticed reactions to Glutino products, but I am positive corn does not bother me; I can eat it in any form, even bake things from corn flour myself. I'm also not allergic to rice, and I am not positive I have a soy allergy (just avoid it to be safe).

A shot in the dark, but what about xantham or guar gums? It took me months to finally nail down that xantham gum is a problem for me.

I don't react to Bob's Red Mill gluten-free corn muffin mix, which contains that, so couldn't be. :o

This is my least favorite answer - you may just not know what or why.

There is one brand of gluten free products that I repeatedly got sick from, even though everyone else did fine, and their products were truly gluten free. I was never able to isolate the ingredient, as I ate other products with those ingredients, and was perfectly fine.

I have issues with a particular ice cream brand - all of them - but its not gluten.

These are both brands that don't regularly have complaints. Interestingly, some of the companies that people often have issues with - I never do. :lol:

Still don't know what it is - I just had to quit eating those products/brands.

Sadly, I think you must be right.

I can't think of any explanation. I even emailed the,m to be sure they are a genuinely gluten-free dedicated line. :o Guess I just can't have Glutino.

Not just a dedicated line, but the entire plant is gluten-free. I have met the owner and president, Steven Singer (ssinger at glutino.com), and he is dedicated to serving us, and to getting his products into mainstream grocery stores.

I don't know the answer, but if those products don't agree with you, then don't eat them.

I'm so glad it's not just me! Fairly recently, I started to notice I would be horribly sick in the morning after eating a bagel for breakfast. I would be even more sick after I'd had one for dinner and then again for breakfast (I tend to eat a lot of the same things). At first it was a fairly mild nausea and I chalked it up to my Celiac morning sickness (which has not gone away despite the diet, to my chagrin). But when it went from mild nausea to painful cramping, I knew it must have been something I'd eaten. I noticed the symptom was a lot like when I'd eat home-made chocolate chip cookies. Those are gluten-free!

A poster above suggested Xanthan Gum as the culprit. I do use Xanthan Gum in my chocolate chip cookies, but my mother also uses it in her chocolate cake, and I use it in oatmeal cookies - so far no reaction.

I don't know what the deal is, but I had to give up all my cinnamon/sugar breakfast bagels to my mother who can tolerate them.

I love the taste of the Glutino crackers, but they don't seem to agree with me. <_<

I believe I've been reacting to Glutino pop tarts. I get panicked within an hour of eating them.

      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.
