Weight Watchers Smart Ones


ENF

Recommended Posts

ENF Enthusiast

Just picked up two Weight Watchers Smart Ones that are labeled gluten free on the side of the boxes, under the ingredients: Chicken Santa Fe, and Cranberry Turkey Medallions.

That is always so nice to see. Thank you for sharing the news.

The Santa Fe style rice and beans is also labeled as gluten free.

The cranberry turkey medallions that I looked at today from Smart Ones were not gluten free, it said right on the box they had wheat in them.

Sometimes it takes awhile for the old stock to be sold out before the new gluten-free items cam go on the shelves. The Kroeger has the old non-gluten-free chexes, but the Wal-mart has all the new formulated gluten-free chex.

BTW, here's a list from our local celiac group that states what Weight Watchers items are (or will be) gluten-free, confirmed by phone:

Brocolli and Cheddar Potatoes

Lemon Herb Chicken Piccata

Fiesta Chicken

Grilled Chicken in Garlic Herb Sauce

Creamy Tuscan Chicken

Homestyle Chicken

Chicken Santa Fe

Santa Fe Rice and Beans

Had the lemon chicken yesterday for lunch, it was a little sweet but good.

I believe it's the new Fruit Sensation line they came out with that has the gluten-free turkey medallions.

      Yes, I have concerns about the calcium supplementation as well. Sounds like a good idea on the surface if you are trying to address bone density issues but when overdone it can have the opposite effect. Calcium supplementation increases gut PH (i.e., lowers gut acidity) which can interfere with vitamin and mineral (including calcium itself) absorption. Often, bone demineralization is not due to lack of calcium intake but to low gut acidity. This is why you will often see calcium supplement products paired with vitamin C (ascorbic acid). Drinking OJ or tomato juice along with the calcium supplement can help with this as they are acidic juices. Calcium supplementation can also contribute to plaque arterial buildup I believe. I think it might be best to focus on rich natural sources of calcium.

      In that case if you answer "no" does that mean the chef doesn't have to be as diligent?  If you ask for "pork free" do they ask if it is an allergy too? How's this for an answer: "I get violently sick if I eat wheat, barley or rye"?

      I order my vitamins from Pipingrock.com. They also make Cream of Rice.  Clearly marked gluten free. Right next to the Cream of Wheat. Stoneyfield Whole Milk Yogurt will help repoputate your gut bacteria.  It has lactase so is ok for lactose intolerance. 6 ounces has 210 mg calcium. For magnesium I get the 10 ounce bottle of liquid Magnesium Citrate at the supermarket or drugstore ($3).  One or two ounces of it  in a glass of water.  Add ice and sugar if you like.  I like the Cherry or Grape best. Instead try: Cream of Rice, Cheese and Good Thins (rice crackers), scrambled eggs and gluten free toast. Do you need Calcium supplement?  Calcium from supplements can cause hypercalcemia, a condition that can lead to serious health complications.  Vitamin D increases calcium absorption.  Monitor 25)(OH)D vitamin D plasma and  parathyroid hormone (PTH).

      The forms that vitamin and mineral supplements come in can be important. Bioavailability (i.e., how well they are absorbed) is often sacrificed for the sake of cost and shelf life. The vitamin or mineral you are targeting is always chemically combined with other elements to make them into a dispensable form (such as a powder, liquid or a pill) and to give them some chemical stability for shelf life.
