Can we have Bragg's Amino Acids? Or does this have GLUTEN? Thank you!

Hello Willamina,

I've been wondering about Braggs, too. I bought a bottle a few weeks ago but haven't used it because I'm not certain that it's gluten-free. It sounds like it's gluten-free and one of these days I'm going to contact the company. I guess I haven't done that yet because I'm not so sure that soy isn't a problem for me as well. When I do contact the company, I'll post their response. Of course, you could do the same.

In the meantime, I use San-j Reduced Sodium Tamari/Organic Wheat Free Soy Sauce just about every day with no problem at all. It's the bottle with the gray, red and blue label. San-j sells many different tamari/soy sauces, so make sure you pick the right one!

Have a great day - Toni

Hello again -

Duh! Just realized I said a silly thing. Soy sauce has soybeans in it so since the San-J gluten-free tamari/soy sauce doesn't bother me, Bragg's probably won't either, as long as it's gluten-free. I'll blame my lack of follow-through thinking to it being so early in the morning and the fact that I really should be getting ready for work, not sitting at my computer!

Have a good one - Toni

Yep you can use Bragg's it's just no very good. Try the San J it's very good but surprise it's expensive. I also just found a light soya sauce that we can have. Although I can't remember the name.

I can't eat Soy, so I use Ume Plum Vinegar, by Eden Selected, instead.

It tastes "almost" like a soy sauce....of course, if you can't tollerate soy, it is better than nothing!! :P

I find that Bragg's Liquid Amino is a palatable substitute for regular soy sauce. I've been off the wagon for a little while and recently had symptoms give me a gentle reminder to get back on.

      @KRipple, thank you for the lab results from your husband's celiac disease blood antibody testing. The lab result you share would seem to be the tTG-IGA (Tissue Transglutaminase IGA) and the test result is in excess of 10x normal. This is significant as there is an increasing tendency for physicians to grant a celiac disease diagnosis on the basis of antibody testing alone when the scores on that particular test exceed 10x normal. This trend started in the UK during the COVID pandemic when there was tremendous pressure on the medical system over there and it has spread to the USA. The tTG-IGA is the centerpiece of celiac disease blood antibody testing. All this to say that some doctors would grant a celiac disease diagnosis on your husband's bloodwork alone and not feel a need to go forward with an endoscopy with biopsy. This is something you and your husband might wish to take up with his physicians. In view of his many health issues it might be wise to avoid any further damage to his small bowel lining by the continuing consumption of gluten and also to allow healing of such to progress. The lining of the small bowel is the place where essentially all of our nutrition is absorbed. This is why celiac disease when it is not addressed with a gluten free diet for many years typically results in additional health problems that are tied to nutritional deficiencies. The millions and millions of tiny finger-like projections that make up the nutrient absorbing surface of the small bowel lining are worn down by the constant inflammation from gluten consumption. In celiac disease, the immune system has been tricked into labeling gluten as an invader. As these finger-like projections are worn down, the efficiency of nutrient absorption becomes more and more compromised. We call this villous atrophy.

      Thank you so much! And sorry for not responding sooner. I've been scouring the hospital records and can find nothing other than the following results (no lab info provided): Component Transglutaminase IgA   Normal Range: 0 - 15.0 U/mL >250.0 U/mL High   We live in Olympia, WA and I will be calling University of Washington Hospital - Roosevelt in Seattle first thing tomorrow. They seem to be the most knowledgeable about complex endocrine issues like APS 2 (and perhaps the dynamics of how APS 2 and Celiacs can affect each other). His diarrhea has not abated even without eating gluten, but that could be a presentation of either Celiac's or Addison's. So complicated. We don't have a date for endoscopy yet. I will let my husband know about resuming gluten.    Again, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with me!

      Hi Phosphone, did you ever figure out what elevated your DGP?  I am in the same boat.

      Scott makes a good point about the prednisone. It has a general suppressing effect on the immune system. Don't misunderstand me. In view of your husband's several autoimmune afflictions, it would seem to be an appropriate medication therapy but it will likely invalidate endoscopy/biopsy test results for celiac disease.
