Brown Rice Flour Vs Rice

I have a question I hope someone can help me with. after my diagnosis I had food allergy testing and was tested for many things, rice was one of them, which showed no allergic reaction. (dairy and soy showed allergic).  I have eaten rice a few times with no issues.

 

now I see I am reacting to brown rice flour, it took me a while to figure this one out, but I am absolutely sure of this.

 

I haven't eaten rice lately just out of fear.

 

I am just wondering if anyone has any insight for me on this reaction to brown rice flour. this is annoying as it is many gluten-free products like bread, crackers, etc.

 

thanks in advance.

i know that sometimes flour can be cc'd. bobs red mill rice flour is made in a facility that processes soy.

thanks, I usually won't buy things that say they are made in a facility that processes soy, but I just checked a container of Gillian's  breadcrumbs and it doesn't say anything about soy, just dedicated to gluten free.

 

hmm, I guess you don't really know about facilities. I also wasn't able to handle the gluten-free chex cereals, and a bunch of other things.

Chex has vitamins that are derived from soy from what i've heard.

I also have trouble with brown rice, usually just whole brown rice (too much fibre for my poor gut to handle, likely). Usually in flour form its fine, but it does bother me on occasion. White rice is no problem as long as I don't eat too much at once. I don't have a know allergy or intolerance, it's just something my body doesn't always like to process.

 

I am soy intolerant though, so there's always the fear of soy cc. i also try not to get things made in the same facility as soy, but that's not always stated.

However, if you have a soy intolerance, that's something to watch for.

 

Good to know about the Bob's red mill. I use a lot of their products but have never had problems.

      Just so you'll know, once you have been gluten-free for any length of time, it will invalidate testing for celiac disease.

      Yes. I have not been tested for celiac. It took forever to get diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. lol. I have an appointment with my regular GP later this month and will convey my findings on improved symptoms and see what his thoughts are. Thank you.

      @Grahamsnaturalworld, It's never too late.   Have you been checked for Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth?  SIBO can cause ongoing symptoms.  Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) and Histamine Intolerance (HIT) can also be the cause of ongoing symptoms.  The AIP diet can help with these by starving out SIBO bacteria and calming the immune system. Do you include dairy in your diet?  Casein in dairy can cause an autoimmune response the same as to gluten.  Have you been checked for lactose intolerance?  Some people lose the ability to produce the enzyme, lactase, needed to digest lactose, the sugar in dairy because the villi where the lactase enzyme is made are damaged.  AIP diet excludes dairy. Do you include grains in your diet?  Gluten free alternative grains and ancient grains can be inflammatory and cause symptoms.  Some people with Celiac react to corn and oats.  The AIP diet excludes all grains.  Lectins in grains can be inflammatory and cause symptoms. Do you eat nightshades (tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, and eggplant).  This family of plants produce glycoalkaloids, chemicals that promote Leaky Gut Syndrome.  The AIP diet excludes nightshades.   Are you on any medications?  Some medications can cause gastrointestinal symptoms.  Do you take any supplements?  Some herbal teas and supplements can cause digestive symptoms.  Medications for diabetes, antidepressants, and other pharmaceuticals can cause digestive symptoms as side effects. Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Malabsorption of essential nutrients can occur with continued symptoms.  Deficiencies in Niacin, Thiamine, and other B vitamins can cause digestive symptoms.  Gastrointestinal Beriberi and Pellagra are often overlooked by doctors because they are not familiar with nutritional deficiency disease symptoms.  Nutritional deficiencies can worsen over time as stores inside the body are depleted.   Have your doctors checked for all these?   I had a horrible time getting my symptoms under control.  I had to answer all these questions myself.  Yes, it's frustrating and exasperating because doctors don't have to live with these symptoms everyday.

      Ok, thanks for the advice, the only advice I've had that's made sense after 21years since my slight symptoms all my life turned into nasty symptoms 21 yrs ago and around 50 gp's and specialists all chasing the symptoms and not looking for the cause, after 9 years of misery I discovered my symptoms matched celiac disease and a blood test proved anti bodies to gliadin but it was too late it has changed into r.c.d. thanks again.

      Welcome to the forum, @QueenBorg! Just for the sake of clarification, your desire to avoid gluten is connected only with your dx of fibromyalgia and not celiac disease, correct?
