Ener G Light Tapioca Bread

I didn't like the regular tapioca bread, it felt like I had a brick in my stomach but the new "light" bread is really good! It has only 7 grams of carbs per slice and it tastes light but substantial. It's probably the best gluten free bread I've had so far.

Didn't know if anyone had mentioned it on here yet or not. Thought I'd share another good gluten free product!

I agree; this is the first bread I have tried that I considered edible. I either make a reuben or other grilled sandwich with it or toast it in a dry skillet first.

Where can you get it and how many calories per slice?

I got it at Akins.

It has 45 calories, 1.5 fat gram, 7 carb, 1 dietary fiber and 0 protein per slice.

I haven't tried dry toasting it but tomorrow I'm going to put 1 slice under some slow-cooked bbq pulled pork and see how that tastes.

Yes, the light tapioca is good. Reminds me of "real" white bread. But I like EnerG light brown rice bread even more. Tastes more like "real" wheat bread. I think even the light tapioca has a tinge of strange taste and smell to it like the other tapioca loaf, but I don't find this at all with the brown rice. And I think the brown rice is probably healthier too (?)and less dry. The biggest problem I have had with the light varieties is that sometimes whatever lightening agent they use causes too much air in the loaf and you get some fairly big holes in the slices. They aren't kidding when they say they are light! :lol: But I'd never go back to the "brick" varieties!

thank you for the information on the brown rice bread. I haven't tried it. Yeah, the light tapioca does have an odd after-taste. It is SO much better than the brick bread though :)

I noticed I had a lot of big holes in it. I tried to toast and butter some one morning and I think I got butter on the crust and a spot here or there where there was actual substance inside the crust!! At least it's something. I miss toast and tea on a cold morning.

I'm going to look for the brown rice bread tomorrow.

thanks again!

Ann

      You have three celiac disease specific antibody tests that are positive: Endomysial  Antibody IGA (aka, EMA), tTG-IGA, and tTG_IGG. Furthermore, your Immunoglobulin A at 55 is low, meaning you are IGA deficient. This one is not an antibody test for celaic disease per se but a measure of "total IGA" levels and if low (yours is low) it can suppress the individual antibody scores and even cause false negatives. So, yes, it definitely looks like you have celiac disease.   Do not yet begin a gluten free diet as your physician may refer you to a GI doc for an endoscopy/biopsy of the small bowel lining for confirmation of the antibody testing. This may help:

      Hi, I received my labs via email yesterday and have not heard back from my doctor yet. Can anyone tell me if these results indicate I have Celiac?      Endomysial Antibody IgAPositive  Ft-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA6  H0-3 (U/mL) - Negative 0 - 3 - Weak Positive 4 - 10 - Positive >10 - Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) has been identified as the endomysial antigen. Studies have demonstrated that endomysial IgA antibodies have over 99% specificity for gluten-sensitive enteropathy. FImmunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum55  L87-352 (mg/dL) Ft-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgG183  H0-5 (U/mL) - Negative 0 - 5 - Weak Positive 6 - 9 - Positive >9

      Mine is definitely triggered by inflammation and stress! I do also have arthritis in my spine, but the pain is more in my pelvic area. Im sure i have other food intolerances or other autoimmune isues but the more I focus on it and see doctor after doctor, it just gets worse.  Best thing is get of Gluten! (I also avoid lactose). Try to limit stress and anything that causes inflammation in your body.

      Good morning,   I got an email about replies to this post. Some of my doctors had blamed a slipped disc for the pain I had and that contributes, but after meeting with a gastroenterologist AGAIN and trying some lifestyle modifications, I found out I have IBS and can't tolerate corn or excessive fructose to any degree. Cutting out corn AFTER having cut out all gluten containing products was a real pain but I feel much better now!

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.
