Over The Moon About Tinkyada

I finally screwed up my courage and tried the brown rice elbows tonight. First pasta of any kind I've tried since going gluten free June 1, 2009. I was utterly petrified. We've never been big pasta people anyway, so doing without wasn't that big of a deal, except I really, really wanted mac-n-cheese to go with my ribs tonight. So, I did the "boil for two minutes, then set off, covered" cooking style. I rinsed it in cold water and it was still kind of tough, but I was hoping that since I would be baking it, it would be okay. I tasted a piece of it, and really, was stunned. It tasted JUST LIKE WHEAT pasta. I gave a piece to DH (who had no idea I'd cooked something "weird"), and he was, "Yeah, it's noodles." Paired with my usual cooked sauce (replacing the flour with half the cornstarch), and into the oven, it truly was indistinguishable. What a friggin' relief!

Tinkyada is our favorite! I bet we have it at least 5 times a week.

YES, I felt the same way when I first made it too! FYI I also had the same reaction to Kinnikinnick donuts-they are soooooo yummy and gluten-free/dairy free.

My husband is Italian and doesn't know the difference.

Tinkyada is the best! I made lasagne and DH tasted it then said, "This is really good". You know, all surprised like! "You thought it was going to be some weird gluten-free thing, didn't you?"

"Yeah..."

"Well, it is gluten-free. But it's really good, isn't it?"

He can't tell the difference and neither can I.

Tinkyada rules- even for a "super sensitive". Tell everyone.

I guess I must be super duper sensitive then. It bothers me so I make my own pasta.

      Cold/flu or gluten poisoning? Hello. I've had another similar episode. I find it very difficult to differentiate between the symptoms of a cold or flu and those caused by gluten poisoning. In fact, I don't know if my current worsening is due to having eaten something that disagreed with me or if the cold I have has caused my body, which is hypersensitive, to produce symptoms similar to those of gluten poisoning.

      I'm no longer dealing with constipation. I got my liver test last month and it was in normal range. Two years ago I did have a vitamin D deficiency but I'm know taking vitamin D3 pills. Last month I got my vitamin D checked and it was in normal range. I don't believe I've had my choline checked. However, I do drink almond milk eat Greek yogurt on a daily basis.

      Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) can be associated with low ferritin and iron deficiency. Once Celiac Disease (1% of the population affected) has been ruled out by tests the next step is to check for Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population affected) by eliminating gluten for a trial period, then re-introduce Gluten Challange. Have you been supplementing Iron? How are your liver enzymes? Low levels of ferritin indicate iron deficiency, while  59% transferrin saturation indicates high iron levels.  Possibly indicating Fatty Liver Disease.  Choline is crucial for liver health, and deficiency is a known trigger for Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver.  Some experts say that less than 10% eat the the Food and Nutrition Board established Adequate Intake that are based on the prevention of liver damage. Severe constipation and hemorrhoids may be linked to a bile or choline deficiency.  "Ninety-five percent of phospholipids (PLs) in bile is secreted as phosphatidylcholine or lecithin."  Fatty acid composition of phospholipids in bile in man   Deficiency of these bile salts causes the bile to get thick. Some people with Celiac Disease are misdiagnosed with Gall Bladder bile issues.  Removal of the gallbladder provides only temporary relief. Whether or not celiac disease or NCGS are your issues you need to look at your vitamin D blood level.

      Thanks for your input.

      If you have hemorrhoids 1x weekly I don't see how you have time to heal from one episode before you experience another one, unless each one is a very minor event. Have you consulted a physician about your hemorrhoid issue? It's not normal to be having an episode every week unless it is really one episode that is not completely healing between weekly flareups.
