Dedicated gluten-free Brands?

I had a recent cross-contamination issue, and it turns out I'm a lot more sensitive than originally thought. My doctor has told me I need to now be more strict with my diet, and I'm not supposed to eat anything that has a risk of CC. Are there certain brands I can trust to be 100% free of CC? Are there any brands that only make gluten-free items?

Kinnickinnick, Glutino, Grainless Baker (my new favorite), Ener-g (hate their bread liked the crackers when I could still have soy, Gluten Free Pantry (their cake mixes are good and the French Bread Mix makes great pizza). Wegmans products with the circle G, if you have one nearby. I have never been CC'd by anything from Wegmans and I am pretty sensitive. I am sure there are others that folks will list.

Glutino, Kinnikinnick, and the Whole Foods gluten-free bakery are dedicated facilities and most people around here eat them fine. I don't know whether Udi's bread is from a dedicated facility, but people do really well with that one too.

There is still a small chance of CC in most gluten-free flours and grains because there is so much wheat in fields, grain elevators, and trucks, but all of those companies are being really careful about where thy buy their ingredients.

Thanks, I will check out those brands.

I've used Udi in the past, with no problems. However, I just moved to a new city and the Whole Foods here doesn't carry it for some reason. I have used some products from Whole Foods gluten-free bakery, so I'll have to see what else they have to offer.

For pasta, Tinkyada is excellent and they make only gluten-free products. I prefer the brown rice ones personally.

Enjoy Life Foods has a dedicated facility. They have really good trail mixes--their Snickerdoodle cookies are quite popular too, as well as their chocolate chips and bars..

      Intolerance after eating certified pasta gluten free could be caused by additives & or stabilaiser added in the composition of the pasta ingredients, even in the best brands please ceck well before buyng & eating

      By Monte Carlo Fine Taste · Posted

      Intolerance to certified gluten-free pasta may be due to additives or stabilizers included in the pasta's ingredients, even among the top brands. It's important to check thoroughly before purchasing and consuming; you can find the actual ingredients listed in the detailed component descriptions on Amazon.

      Thank you for this information and your post. I have tried just about every diet there is. I have been experimenting with diet for years and years. I am a vegan, so the diet you mentioned is not an option. Fasting always works for me. Probably because I am detoxing and not feeding candida or parasites. Meat eaters have a higher prevalence of parasites, just so you know. I have a feeling that every time I break out on probiotics it's due to some kind of war with my gut biome. I definitely need to find a system of flushing out my gut so that the probiotics don't have to fight as hard to populate.

      Sommersby cider, alcohol generally

      By bharal · Posted

      I'm unsure if sommersby cider is likely to have cross contamination issues, given its made by a beer company. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? I'm assuming wine generally is ok, as it's bottled in a vineyard, but what about other (ostensiblygluten free) liquors?

      @BoiseNic Have you tried the Autoimmune Protocol Diet?  This Paleo diet cuts out most everything except meat, veggies and some fruits.  By cutting out all the carbohydrates, especially processed ones, the carbohydrate loving bacteria and fungi like Candida get starved out and die off.  After that, taking probiotics to help repopulate the gut is beneficial.  The new strains of bacteria don't have to fight the established unhealthy yeasts and bad bacteria which causes a rise in histamine levels which can make one feel sick.   Certain vitamins help keep bad bacteria and fungi at bay.  Thiamine is one.  Antibiotics can deplete Thiamine stores.  The Gluten free diet can be low in Thiamine and the other vitamins and minerals needed for healthy skin and digestive tract.  Vitamin C, Vitamin D, zinc, and Niacin B 3 are important to skin health.  Niacin is especially helpful in Dermatitis Herpetiformis.  I like the kind that flushes (Nicotinic Acid - not the same as nicotine in cigarettes).  The flushing gets less and less the longer it's taken, but Niacinamide which doesn't cause flushing can be taken instead.     Here's an interesting article.  Compare the bacteria mentioned in the article with your Skinesa and then with the Visbiome probiotics.   The Role of Probiotics in Skin Health and Related Gut–Skin Axis: A Review https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10385652/ Visbiome https://www.visbiome.com/collections/all/products/visbiome-capsules

      gluten-free and continued upper left side pain after drinking wine

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      The short answer is if it hurts, don't do it. Yogurt may help sooth your gut and repopulate it with benificial bacteria.  I prefer whole milk yogurt because it is not processed and the no fat yogurt is processed dehydrated milk powder with guar gums and water added to make it mouth feel like fat.  Especially in early healing there may be other foods you cannot tolerate for a while.
