Safe packaged foods

Hi, I am wondering if there are any safe packaged foods that work for you all on the super sensitive forum?  Foods that, in addition to being wheat free, are also rice, corn and potato free?  We eat mostly along "from the farm" guidelines, but I'd love to figure out if there is anything processed that is also safe.  So far King Soba buckwheat noodles look good, but we just had to give up Van's products.  It's tough to find starchy carbs to round out the diet, and most grains are run on lines with other things that can cause cross-contamination.  Thanks!  (Daughter is super sensitive and I organize family eating around what works for her.  The boys eat out when they want other stuff.)

Considering the amount of foods that you need to omit, I doubt you will find many, if any, that are safe for your daughter to consume.  Most people, even sensitive ones like myself, only need to omit gluten and maybe one other
food group and for that, there are many carb foods that are safe. I have been gluten-free for many years and don't know of any that are free of everything you list. That's a tough one!

Sweet potatoes are an option.  Some people use a ricer to make cauliflower "rice".

Quinoa might work, but make sure you rinse it well.

      Your doctor is most likely correct here, and if you had high tTg-IGA and villous atrophy you likely have celiac disease and need to be gluten-free. If regular small amounts of gluten get in your diet, it will prevent recovery. Eating out in restaurants is the primary source of such contamination.

      Mostly trial and error and noticing the effects of the supplements over time. It's important to look at the bottom of my original post in this thread to see nutrients that can be toxic in higher does, especially over long periods of time.

      As @trents mentioned, removing gluten if you have celiac disease would be key to villi recovery, and if you still are having issues trying to identify other triggers would be the next step, even though the additional intolerances will not likely contribute to villi recovery. This study indicates that a majority of celiacs don't recover until 5 years after diagnosis and starting a gluten-free diet: Mucosal recovery and mortality in adults with celiac disease after treatment with a gluten-free diet However, it's also possible that what the study really shows is the difficulty in maintaining a 100% gluten-free diet. I suspect that if you looked closely at the diets of those who did not recover within 2 years might be that their diets were not 100% gluten-free. Perhaps they ate out more often, or didn't understand all of the hidden ingredients where gluten can hide. Either way, it shows how difficult recovery from celiac disease can be for most people. According to this study: This article explores other causes of flattened villi:

      Well, it certainly seems reasonable to get checked for Crohn's since you have a family member with it and SIBO. You might also consider talking to your physician about a trial on an immunosuppressant, like prednisone, to see if numbers go down and symptoms subside. Sometimes, just interrupting the inflammatory cycle can effect a reset and put you on the road to health.

      I am wondering how you developed this supplementation regimen? Was it just through trial and error? Did you base this trial and error on blood tests or symptom improvement? It cost me $300 for the blood tests, so I would prefer not to do those regularly
