A Question About Soy ~

I recently found out I am allergic to soy and just had a reaction from chicken that was fed a soy based diet. If I buy chicken that was fed a "vegetarian diet" does that exclude soy???

Well, soy comes from the soybean which is technically a vegetable so you'd have to confirm what kind of vegetables these chickens are being fed.

Vegetarians eat soy beans :)

So Grass-Fed meats would be safe then, right?

When it comes to beef, that's all I will eat :o Grass-fed organic is the purest, safest you can get. I have problems with corn as well as soy and try my best to avoid corn-fed anything too.

The chicken I ate was from Trader Joe's and I didn't read the back of the package until after I realized I was having a reaction and saw their chickens were fed corn and soy. I'm not sure if I have an allergy to corn. I'm hoping that Whole Food's chicken is soy free. If not, I don't know where I'm going to find some. Hopefully my "vegetarian fed" Organic Valley eggs are soy free, I'm gonna have to give them a call tomorrow.

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

      By PlanetJanet · Posted

      After looking at Google images, the spleen is on the upper left abdomen, too!  An organ, part of the lymphatic system for immune function.  A filter.  Wonder how this relates to gluten sensitivity?

      Hello, everyone, This upper left side pain is interesting to me.  I have this same pain almost all the time.  Started 2009 when I got diverticulitis for the first time.  Then had left ovarian cyst removed and a diagnosis of endometriosis all over inside.  Been attempting gluten-free since 2018.  It's not perfect, but still have that left sided pain.  Like up under the rib cage.  I believe the pancreas head is on that side, so I often wonder if I have a tumor or something there.  But it could also be an endometriosis adhesion in my belly.  I never got scraped.

      Canned tomato sauce, ricotta?

      By DMCeliac · Posted

      One of my biggest issues is when a brand chooses to label one item gluten free, but not another. Why is Hunt's diced tomatoes labeled gluten free, but not the paste or sauce? I would have assumed they were all gluten-free, but why label one and not the others? It makes me suspicious.

      Most of these items would be naturally gluten-free, with very little chance of cross contamination, thus they don't typically label them as gluten-free. If wheat is a potential allergen large companies disclose this in the ingredients as "Allergens: wheat."
