Soy Sauce

Not together, of course! But I have a friend coming round for dinner and she is gluten and lactose intolerant. I was planning an asian stew with rice, thinking that rice was a good option. Now, I just realised that soy sauce *may* have gluten in it. Is this true? The entire stew has about 3 tsp of dark soya sauce in it. Will this pose a problem? ALso, if any one knows whether Ciao Bella Coconut Sorbet has milk in it, I would be very grateful. I thought that I was clear by ordering Sorbet, but then I read on the website that "The sorbets are also dairy-free, fat-free and cholesterol-free (except coconut and chocolate which contain natural fat and milk)." Does this mean coconut milk? Or regular milk? So stressed... I don't want my friend to get ill because of my cooking! thanks in advance How useful is this message about Soy Sauce? coeliac-celiac

Some brands of soy sauce are made with wheat, and so must be avoided. Even small amounts can cause problems for some people. The chocolate sorbet probably contains dairy milk, and lactose. Peter How useful is this message about Re: Soy Sauce? coeliac-celiac

Re: Soy Sauce

I haven't eaten any wheat for a couple of weeks, but a few days ago I had some Japanese soy sauce, Tamari, and within minutes I felt like my throat was closing up, and that somebody was sitting on my chest. Does this sound like a reaction to you. It did ease off after an hour or so. I'd be interested to know your opion. The reason I gave up wheat originally was, I was getting headaches How useful is this message about Re: Soy Sauce? coeliac-celiac

That sounds to me that it might be a very serious allergic reaction. It may be to the soy sauce rather than wheat. Better safe than sorry - consult your doctor as soon as possible - and don't eat any soy or wheat until you have done so. Peter How useful is this message about Re: Soy Sauce? coeliac-celiac

Re: Soy Sauce

Have had blood tests for allergy to wheat, yeast & soy. All have come back negative. Still get a closing of the throat reaction to soy sauce so am at a loss to explain it. Any ideas, as am at my wits end How useful is this message about Re: Soy Sauce? coeliac-celiac

I would simply avoid soy sauce, and anything else that gives a similar reaction. Peter How useful is this message about Re: Soy Sauce? coeliac-celiac

Soy sauce also has caramel in it which contains milk, so it isn't good for lactose intolerance either. How useful is this message about Re Soy Sauce? coeliac-celiac

I think there is a possibility soy sauce is aged and may contain mold. You could be allergic to that. How useful is this message about Re Soy Sauce? coeliac-celiac

My son eats soy nuts and wheat bread with no apparent problem. However, when he eats soy sauce, he gets a bad stomach ache. He seems to tolerate small amounts if it is stir-fried (in marinated meat). How useful is this message about Re Soy Sauce? coeliac-celiac

After a little further research, I found the following article http://www.nexusmagazine.com/articles/Soy\%20Allergens.html The Hidden Dangers of Soy Allergens Extracted from Nexus Magazine, Volume 11, Number 5 (August-September 2004) by Kaayla T. Daniel, PhD, CCN � 2004 "Histamine toxicity can also resemble allergic reactions. In allergic persons, mast cells release histamine, causing a response that strongly resembles an allergic reaction to food. In cases of histamine toxicity, the histamine comes ready-made in the food. This is most often associated with reactions to cheese and fish, but soy sauce also contains high levels of histamine. Researchers who have calculated the histamine content of foods consumed at a typical oriental meal report that histamine intake may easily approach toxic levels.41 " (Sorry this is a bit off-topic, but it may explain some reactions to soy sauce, which contains both wheat and soy.)
