I really dont want to give up bread completly but I need a low carb bread because I also have insulin resistance/pcos. Any ideas? Will adding flax seeds to my recipe help?

Hi again :)

I would think the best place to start would be figuring out which gluten-free flours are low carb. I know for one that almond flour is (it's just ground almonds). Flax meal/flour is 0 net carbs as the fibre matches the carbs. So maybe get a good bread recipe and play around with substituting with those flours?

I'm looking for a similar item, so if I do some experimenting and come up with something decent I will let you know. :)

They have a load of low-carb gluten-free recipes. :) They all use their own brand of 'baking aid' though... bit weird. It's gluten-free, but it would be nice if you didn't need it. Maybe just use some xanthan gum and baking powder.

Depending on how low you want to go (on low carb) there is an EnerG brand lite tapioca bread that is sort of low, at least for gluten-free standards. It is 10g carb a slice (no fiber though). I actually like it better than their regular ones. It's good as buttered toast when you are having a bad stomach day.

Still, not totally low carb. But I feel ok about using it when I slather it with peanut butter and flax meal or something that is sticky and fibery. Definitely makes it easier on my system - I don't do well with sugars or starches either.

I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for but I noticed Kinnikinnick has a Candidi Yeast Free Multigrain Rice Bread. The discription says, "A selection of seeds and nuts make for great taste, an appealing texture and higher fiber content."

Here's the link...... :)

      EMA Result

      By trents · Posted

      Let me hasten to add that if you will be undergoing an endoscopy/biopsy, it is critical that you do not begin efforts to reduce gluten beforehand. Doing so will render the results invalid as it will allow the small bowel lining to heal and, therefore, obscure the damage done by celiac disease which is what the biopsy is looking for.

      Violent reaction to gluten after going gluten-free?

      Seeking advice on potential gluten challenge

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      That’s a really tough situation. A few key points: as mentioned, a gluten challenge does require daily gluten for several weeks to make blood tests meaningful, but negative tests after limited exposure aren’t reliable. Dermatitis herpetiformis can also be tricky to diagnose unless the biopsy is taken from normal-looking skin next to a lesion. Some people with celiac or DH don’t react every time they’re exposed, so lack of symptoms doesn’t rule it out. Given your history and family cancer risk, this is something I’d strongly discuss with a celiac-experienced gastroenterologist or dermatologist before attempting a challenge on your own, so risks and benefits are clearly weighed.

      By Greymo · Posted

      https://celiac.org/glutenexposuremarkers/    yes, two hours after accidents ingesting gluten I am vomiting and then diarrhea- then exhaustion and a headache. see the article above- There is research that shows our reactions.

      EMA Result

      By trents · Posted

      Concerning the EMA positive result, the EMA was the original blood test developed to detect celiac disease and has largely been replaced by the tTG-IGA which has a similar reliability confidence but is much less expensive to run. Yes, a positive EMA is very strong evidence of celiac disease but not foolproof. In the UK, a tTG-IGA score that is 10x normal or greater will often result in foregoing the endoscopy/biopsy. Weaker positives on the tTG-IGA still trigger the endoscopy/biopsy. That protocol is being considered in the US but is not yet in place.
