Ham

Hi all,

I'm experimenting with split pea soup (sounds yucky, but it might provide some nutrition). :lol: So, I need some ham to put in it. Does anyone know of a gluten-free brand?

The recipe says that I can either put ham chunks in it, or a ham bone in it. Is it safe to just request a ham bone from the grocery store butcher? I'm confused. :huh:

TIA!

~Brenda

Many hams have additives, especially if you get the ones with honey or brown sugar in them. Your best bet is to verify with the "manufacturer" whether their meat has additives that contain gluten. A quick phone call by you or your butcher should give you the info you need.

I bought a ham this week that has gluten in it. I was shocked. I'd never gotten a ham with gluten before. Thank God I read the ingredients.

My beloved Hormel company makes a few canned products that are gluten-free.

Hormel Chunk Meats: Ham

Amoung most of the others, this is gluten-free, I've used a variety of these chunked canned items, as it can be helpful to have a can of chicken or turkey available, when making some type of soup, and then you realize you are all out of the fresh stuff.

The Black Label and Cure 81, Canned Hams are also gluten-free

Hormel would be the easiest to find, but Wellshire farms makes great gluten-free hams. They have a website and you can order directly from them. Some stores, like Harry's and Wholefoods carry this brand as well. Good luck. Soup is so great for our lunches!

I like the Hormel Cure 81 Hame.

I usually put a glaze of honey over myself and bake it.

Or you can just unwrap it and eat it on sandwiches. Either way, it is pretty darn good ham......

It is in the meat case at most grocery stores near the other "large Hams".....you can buy it in the 5 lb version or the smaller .5 - 1.5 lb block...

I am lucky enough to live in a rural area and just buy a whole hog! :D I have it butchered the way I want, and make sure it is cured and processed gluten-free. Do you have that option? Most meat processing stores carry extra meat you can buy from them without buying a whole hog or cow. Yummy!!!

      Does Kroger Offer Affordable Gluten-Free Options?

      By Peggy M · Posted

      Kroeger has quite a few Gluten free items.  Right now they are redoing my Kroeger store and are adding everything into the regular sections.  Since this was done some new ones have been added.  Publix and Ingles also have great selections. I actually shop Walmart and Food City to since prices on some items vary from store to store.

      Sorry but I don't have specific recommendations for doctors, however, starting out with good multivitamins/minerals would make sense. You may want to get your doctor to screen you for where you different levels are now to help identify any that are low, but since you're newly diagnosed within the past year, supplementation is usually essential for most celiacs.

      Test uncertainty

      By trents · Posted

      Yes, I can imagine. My celiac journey started with a rejection of a blood donation by the Red Cross when I was 37 because of elevated liver enzymes. I wasn't a drinker and my family doctor checked me for hepatitis and I was not overweight. No answers. I thought no more about it until six years later when I landed a job in a healthcare setting where I got annual CMP screenings as part of my benefits. The liver enzymes were continually elevated and creeping up every year, though they were never super high. My primary care doc had no clue. I got really worried as your liver is pretty important. I finally made an appointment with a GI doc myself and the first thing he did was test me for celiac disease. I was positive. That was in about 1996. After going on a gluten-free diet for three months the liver enzymes were back in normal range. Another lab that had gotten out of whack that has not returned to normal is albumin/total protein which are always a little on the low side. I don't know what that's about, if it's related to the liver or something else like leaky gut syndrome. But my doctors don't seem to be worried about it. One thing to realize is that celiac disease can onset at any stage of life. There is a genetic component but there is also an epigenetic component. That is, the genetic component is not deterministic. It only provides the potential. There needs also to be some health or environmental stressor to activate the latent gene potential. About 40% of the population have the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually do.

      Does this definitely suggest Coeliac Disease?

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hello @Heather Hill You are most welcome.  As a longstanding member and now mod of the forum, I am ashamed to say I find numbers and figures very confusing, so I rarely stray into the realms of explaining markers. (I've self-diagnosed myself with dyscalculia!)  So I will leave that to @Scott Adams or another person. However as a British person myself I quite understand that the process with the NHS can take rather a long time.  But just as you made a concerted effort to eat gluten before your blood test, I'd advise doing the same with eating gluten before a biopsy, in order to show if you are reacting to gluten.  It might be worth contacting the hospital or your GPs secretary to find out if they know what the current waiting time is. Here is a page from Coeliac UK about the current NHS recommendations. https://www.coeliac.org.uk/information-and-support/coeliac-disease/getting-diagnosed/blood-tests-and-biospy/#:~:text=If you remove or reduce,least six weeks before testing.

      Thanks again. My mom was diagnosed over 50 years ago with celiac so grew up watching her deal with the challenges of food. I have been tested a few times prior due to this but these results have me a bit stunned. I have a liver disease that has advanced rapidly with no symptoms and an allergy that could be a contributing factor that had no symptoms. I guess I’ll call it lucky my Dr ordered a rescreen of a liver ultrasound from 5 years ago that triggered this or I would likely have tripped into cirrhosis. It’s all pretty jarring.
