Deby's Gluten Free Hits The Big Time!


Galilee

Recommended Posts

Galilee Newbie

Hi. My name is Doug. Many of you know my wife, Monica, who owns Deby's Gluten Free Bakery and Cafe in Denver, Colorado. I believe her login name is Deby.

Anyway, today, in the Rocky Mountain News, we got a write up of the restaurant, including a recipe for gluten free Bacon Cheddar Stuffing.

If we did, I would at leastt be able to watch my Jets more. I've been a Jets fan since 1981.

Oh, wait, they are 2-9. Nah! :D

I have been getting Deby's items for the past few months at my local gluten-free store. I love her products!!! I have a three year old who has celiac and sometimes it id difficult to find items he will like and not have to pay an arm and leg for. Deby's products are priced reasonably so it okay to try them out. So far he has liked...chicken nuggets, chicken soup, dinner roll, pig in a blanket, and white bread.

We tried the pecan pie, cookie dough, biscuits, and stuffing mix. My son did not like them, but my husband and I who are not gluten-free enjoyed all of them.

My only suggestion is we need a more inexpensive waffle cone!

Hey! I live in Denver and have been to Debys once and their gluten-free Pizza is fantastic as well as their gluten-free Breads and other items, had a gluten-free Chicken cordon blue which was superb with rissoto. Only problem is I live off of colfax andDebys is clear down south, wayyyy down south. :( Otherwise I would have gone back more often, especially since they have a restaurant thats 100% gluten-free!

Absolutely!!! I'll even help move. I just don't do painting : )

Galilee Newbie

Well it keeps getting better!!

As of January, we will be in ALL 18 Vitamin Cottage stores in Colorado, 7 Whole Foods stores, AND they are putting in a proposal to get us into King Soopers (One of the big 3 chain stores all over the state. We live right by store #69, to give you an idea). Also, we are very close to getting into all 12 Sunflower Market Stores (we are already in one).

I've heard great things about your pizzas from Mrs. Ford. She works at the prison here inSterling. I only wish it wasn't so expensive to get your products shipped here. Sterling Health Foods is considering carrying your products, but that doesn't sound too promising. My son 18, was diagnosed with celiac disease after 7 years and we are feeling the pains of trying to buy good tasting, gluten free foods. Whole Foods carries some things, but again they are located between 100 and 150 miles from us. If you ever have any tips on baking a simple banana bread gluten free, [please let me know. I have no ideas how to begin to bake gluten free. Thanks,Keep up the good work:> B)

Hi and I am very excited about your products, but for a different reason. My daughter attends CU in Boulder and we have had a very difficult first semester, trying to get safe food for her to eat on campus. But thanks to the diligence and devotion of some very wonderful parents and community members, your store is providing gluten-free meals for the handful of celiacs on campus. That's right!! What a blessing to know that my daughter can go in and eat and not worry about ingredients, contamination, etc. Thank you so much for providing this service!

I've made a pretty good banana bread from scratch. Honestly, when I bake, i just modify gluten recipes. So, in my better homes and garden book, I take their recipe, and replace the flours, and a tsp of zanthan gum to make it all gluten like. LOL

My usual flour combo is with rice flour/tapioca flour/potato starch.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Raising you vitamin D will increase absorption of calcium automatically without supplementation of calcium.  A high PTH can be caused by low D causing poor calcium absorption; not insuffient calcium intake.  With low D your body is not absorbing calcium from your food so it steals it from your bones.  Heart has priority over bone. I've been taking 10,000 IU D3 a day since 2015.  My doctor says to continue. To fix my lactose intolerance, lots of lactobacillus from yogurts, and brine fermented pickles and saurkraut and olives.  We lose much of our ability to make lactase endogenosly with maturity but a healthy colony of lactobacillus in our gut excretes lactase in exchange for room and board. The milk protein in grass fed milk does not bother me. It tastes like the milk I grew up on.  If I drink commercial milk I get heartburn at night. Some experts estimate that 90% of us do not eat Adequite Intake of choline.  Beef and eggs are the principle source. Iodine deficiency is a growing concern.  I take 600 mcg a day of Liquid Iodine.  It and NAC have accelerated my healing all over.  Virtually blind in my right eye after starting antihypertensive medication and vision is slowly coming back.  I had to cut out starches because they drove my glucose up into the 200+ range.  I replaced them with Red Bull for the glucose intake with the vitamins, minerals and Taurine needed to process through the mitochodria Krebs Cycle to create ATP.  Went from A1c 13 down to 7.9.  Work in progress. Also take B1,B2,B3,B5,B6. Liquid Iodine, Phosphatidyl Choline, Q10, Selenium, D and DHEA.     Choline supplemented as phosphatidylcholine decreases fasting and postmethionine-loading plasma homocysteine concentrations in healthy men +

      @catnapt, Wheat germ has very little gluten in it.  Gluten is  the carbohydrate storage protein, what the flour is made from, the fluffy part.  Just like with beans, there's the baby plant that will germinate  ("germ"-inate) if sprouted, and the bean part is the carbohydrate storage protein.   Wheat germ is the baby plant inside a kernel of wheat, and bran is the protective covering of the kernel.   Little to no gluten there.   Large amounts of lectins are in wheat germ and can cause digestive upsets, but not enough Gluten to provoke antibody production in the small intestines. Luckily you still have time to do a proper gluten challenge (10 grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks) before your next appointment when you can be retested.

      Hello, @asaT, I'm curious to know whether you are taking other B vitamins like Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3.  Malabsorption in Celiac disease affects all the water soluble B vitamins and Vitamin C.  Thiamine and Niacin are required to produce energy for all the homocysteine lowering reactions provided by Folate, Cobalamine and Pyridoxine.   Weight gain with a voracious appetite is something I experienced while malnourished.  It's symptomatic of Thiamine B1 deficiency.   Conversely, some people with thiamine deficiency lose their appetite altogether, and suffer from anorexia.  At different periods on my lifelong journey, I suffered this, too.   When the body doesn't have sufficient thiamine to turn food, especially carbohydrates, into energy (for growth and repair), the body rations what little thiamine it has available, and turns the carbs into fat, and stores it mostly in the abdomen.  Consuming a high carbohydrate diet requires additional thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  Simple carbohydrates (sugar, white rice, etc.) don't contain thiamine, so the body easily depletes its stores of Thiamine processing the carbs into fat.  The digestive system communicates with the brain to keep eating in order to consume more thiamine and other nutrients it's not absorbing.   One can have a subclinical thiamine insufficiency for years.  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function, so the symptoms can wax and wane mysteriously.  Symptoms of Thiamine insufficiency include stunted growth, chronic fatigue, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi (diarrhea, abdominal pain), heart attack, Alzheimer's, stroke, and cancer.   Thiamine improves bone turnover.  Thiamine insufficiency can also affect the thyroid.  The thyroid is important in bone metabolism.  The thyroid also influences hormones, like estrogen and progesterone, and menopause.  Vitamin D, at optimal levels, can act as a hormone and can influence the thyroid, as well as being important to bone health, and regulating the immune system.  Vitamin A is important to bone health, too, and is necessary for intestinal health, as well.   I don't do dairy because I react to Casein, the protein in dairy that resembles gluten and causes a reaction the same as if I'd been exposed to gluten, including high tTg IgA.  I found adding mineral water containing calcium and other minerals helpful in increasing my calcium intake.   Malabsorption of Celiac affects all the vitamins and minerals.  I do hope you'll talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing all eight B vitamins and the four fat soluble vitamins because they all work together interconnectedly.

      Hi Jane: You may want to try the D3 I now take. I have reactions to fillers and many additives. Sports Research, it is based in the USA and I have had no bad reactions with this brand. The D3 does have coconut oil but it is non GMO, it is Gluten free, Soy free, Soybean free and Safflower oil free.  I have a cupboard full of supplements that did not agree with me -  I just keep trying and have finally settled on Sports Research. I take NAKA Women's Multi full spectrum, and have not felt sick after taking 2 capsules per day -  it is a Canadian company. I buy both from Amazon. I wish you well in your searching, I know how discouraging it all is. Florence.

      highly unlikely  NOTHING and I mean NOTHING else has ever caused me these kinds of symptoms I have no problem with dates, they are a large part of my diet In fact, I eat a very high fiber, very high vegetable and bean diet and have for many years now. It's considered a whole foods plant based or plant forward diet (I do now eat some lean ground turkey but not much) I was off dairy for years but recently had to add back plain yogurt to meet calcium needs that I am not allowed to get from supplements (I have not had any problem with the yogurt)   I eat almost no processed foods. I don't eat out. almost everything I eat, I cook myself I am going to keep a food diary but to be honest, I already know that it's wheat products and also barley that are the problem, which is why I gradually stopped eating and buying them. When I was eating them, like back in early 2024, when I was in the middle of moving and ate out (always had bread or toast or rolls or a sub or pizza) I felt terrible but at that time was so busy and exhausted that I never stopped to think it was the food. Once I was in my new place, I continued to have bread from time to time and had such horrible joint pain that I was preparing for 2 total knee replacements as well as one hip! The surgery could not go forward as I was (and still am) actively losing calcium from my bones. That problem has yet to be properly diagnosed and treated   anyway over time I realized that I felt better when I stopped eating bread. Back at least 3 yrs ago I noticed that regular pasta made me sick so I switched to brown rice pasta and even though it costs a lot more, I really like it.   so gradually I just stopped buying and eating foods with gluten. I stopped getting raisin bran when I was constipated because it made me bloated and it didn't help the constipation any more (used to be a sure bet that it would in the past)   I made cookies and brownies using beans and rolled oats and dates and tahini and I LOVE them and have zero issues eating those I eat 1 or more cans of beans per day easily can eat a pound of broccoli - no problem! Brussels sprouts the same thing.   so yeh it's bread and related foods that are clearly the problem  there is zero doubt in my mind
