High Gluten Diet - 1 Tbs Gold Medal Flour A Day
Posted by dedeadge, Nov 1 2009, 05:44 PM13-yr old daughter needs to be on a high gluten diet, specifically 1 Tbs gold medal flour a day. She's not a sweet eater, so she doesn't want me to bake her anything. She's eating bread, pasta, etc., but the doctor also wants to add flour (how, I'm not sure). Appreciate any suggestions.

huh don't hear of a diet like that every day so the doctor wants more flour? well i'd stay away from refined flour(the pure white stuff it just gets digested like sugar) why does she need wheat? is it a high fiber diet? or is it a high carb diet? what does he expect to achieve by filling her with gluten? btw you can buy gluten in stores

I failed to mention that my daughter is being tested (again) for celiac. She needs to be on a high gluten diet for three months in hopes that she'll be "ripe" when she undergoes another EGD.

ahhh explains alot, well i don't know the exact name of the product but i know gluten is in the name you can get it at walmart in the flour and baking goods area, i'd put it in things like oat meal and you can make soups use it as a thickener and put it in omlet as a thickener(IHOP uses pancake batter to help strenghen the egg) honestly its pretty easy to load you diet with gluten also some flours have higher concentrations of gluten so i would google which ones you should use more often. by the way Guisto's high gluten flour is one of the flours with high amounts of gluten
