gluten free bakery

I had just read of Sami's bakery not being gluten free.  Honestly, I'm from North Dakota so I am not familiar with Sami's bakery.  However, there is a certified gluten-free bakery in Fargo, ND that I and a celiac friend of mine that go to regularly for the goodies that are considered hands-off due to gluten.  The store's name is Mehl's gluten free bakery.  They now have a website by the address Open Original Shared Link. Haven't tried their mixes yet, but I plan to go the local grocery stores to take a peek.  Last week, I had the first cupcake for ages it seemed and it tasted wonderful.  On the website, it has the different locations they ship out to.  Most of the stores they ship to is Mid-western and Eastern coast, so I guess you could say they have gone nationwide now.

This part is confusing to me. " for the goodies that are considered hands-off due to gluten."  Is that a typo or are you eating goodies with gluten?  Worded oddly?

What I meant by it being "hands-off" is that the foods that normally have gluten are made gluten-free at this bakery having the taste and texture of its glutenized cousin.

      @Whyz, I take a combination of Thiamin (Benfotiamin), B12 Cobalamine and Pyridoxine B6 for my pain and headaches.  Really works well without hurting the digestive tract.  Riboflavin B2 also helps with migraines.  Most newly diagnosed people have vitamin and mineral deficiencies.  Check with your doctor and nutritionist.   If you follow the updated gluten challenge guidelines, you can wait until two weeks (minimum) before your appointment, then eat lots of gluten, like six slices of gluten containing bread or "name your poison".   Here's the Updated Gluten Challenge Guidelines: Recommended intake of gluten should be increased to 10 grams of gluten per day for at least two weeks. Or longer. While three grams of gluten will begin the immune response, ten grams of gluten is needed to get antibody levels up to where they can be measured in antibody tests and changes can be seen in the small intestine.   Keep in mind that there are different amounts of gluten in different kinds of bread and gluten containing foods.  Pizza crust and breads that are thick and chewy contain more gluten than things like cake and cookies.   References: https://www.beyondceliac.org/celiac-disease/the-gluten-challenge/ And... Evaluating Responses to Gluten Challenge: A Randomized, Double-Blind, 2-Dose Gluten Challenge Trial https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7878429/?report=reader  "In our study, limited changes in Vh:celiac disease (villi height vs crypt depth - aka damage to the small intestine)  following 14-day challenge with 3 g of gluten were observed, in accordance with Sarna et al.  While the 3 g dose was sufficient to initiate an immune response, as detected by several biomarkers such as IL-2, the 10 g dose was required for enteropathy within the study time frame. Based on our data, we would suggest that gluten challenge should be conducted over longer durations and/or using doses of gluten of ≥ 3 g/day to ensure sufficient histological change can be induced." Keep us posted on your progress!

      I don't believe that existing life insurance policies require such notifications--health checks are typically done before such policies are obtained. I believe it would primarily affect any new policy you get, and perhaps any policy renewal.

      You could go gluten-free now, and then start eating lots of gluten for at least 2 weeks before your endoscopy--just be sure to tell your doctor about this beforehand. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet, it is further evidence of celiac disease and/or non-celiac gluten sensitivity.  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      If I'm not mistaken, you need to count by the grams of GLUTEN, not the gram weight of the bread.  So, instead of counting each slice of bread as 35 grams, it would be counted as 2 grams, so that's why the recommendation is 5 slices a day = 10 grams.  One of the moderators can correct me if I'm wrong on that!

      Question re: life/health insurance: if you're already under these policies, do you have to notify them if you receive an official diagnosis, or is that only for new policies?  I have had two active term life insurance policies for many years that I pay a set amount into.  And my employer covers my health insurance.  So, do I need to let them both know if I do become officially diagnosed?  I'm glad I read this, because that would certainly be marked off in the "disadvantage" box for me!
