Guest guest Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 Hi Sue, Thanks for the link. Those aren't too bad as far as sodium content goes, so I'll have to try them. There is a Whole Foods in town--fortunately this is an area where I can get nearly any kind of organic or vegan food. I like Gardenburgers, but they're just too high in sodium for me to have them regularly. I'm always on the lookout for the perfect recipe, because if I make them myself obviously I can cut the salt way down. I take prescription Zantac and also Prilosec sometimes for reflux. I'm hoping IE will help me to reduce the level of medication I take, because binges/overeating in general really play havoc with reflux. I've already cut out or way down on most of the trigger foods.

LOL I found 'Sunshine (vegan) Burgers' in my local Whole Foods Store after my doctor described them on his blog. Most 'vegan' burgers have a soy protein base. However, with my soy allergy, I was pleased to find that Sunshine burgers were made with brown rice, sunflower seeds, carrots, sea salt and herbs. We love the 'original' and 'garden' flavors, but the barbeque flavor is sweeter and spicier than my husband likes. We wouldn't even try the 'southwest' flavor with jalapeno pepper. Here's the website, which describes the ingredients and retail locations (where you can buy them): http://sunshineburger.com I can eat soy free vegan, but not vegetarian, because I have dairy, egg and soy allergies. However, I can also eat any meats. So I'm not a fulltime 'vegan'. I just like vegan entrees, because I can digest vegan protein combinations more easily that I can digest meats. I need to take betaine hydrochloride to digest most meats (fish and chicken), because a misdiagnosis of gastritis led to several years of taking acid blockers, when I actually had low stomach acid and celiac disease. At least I didn't lose any organs in any unnecessary surgeries like other celiacs before they were finally diagnosed with CD.
