It's seems like forever since I've been here. and I can already hear the gasps over this question. I don't know if its just me or everyone, but has anyone else seen a site on your facebook timeline about EINKORN flour? Has anyone actually had the nerve to try it? They say its an ancient wheat flour. So, no its not an alternative to wheat. It IS wheat. But its not modern wheat and they say it has 14 chromosomes to the gluten structure versus modern wheat flour having 42 chromosomes. It's not been modified and engineered. Supposedly. So, "THEY" aren't saying its glutenfree but they SUGGEST it could be a lot easier on us. I was just wondering if anyone had tried it.

It still has gluten.  Not for Celiacs

There was some older evidence that suggested that it could possibly be safe for those with celiac disease:

However, more recent research seems to contradict this:

Since there are so many good gluten-free options out there I wouldn't go that direction.

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      Thankfully those are normal. B12 was on the low end of the normal range when I first got diagnosed. When I last got it checked, it had come up a lot (455 last time checked).

      mystery gluten?

      You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/  I didn't notice any gluten ingredients in Kirkland Almond non-dairy beverage, however it does contain Locust Bean Gum. Some gums may cause IBS-type issues in some people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity:

      For the past few months, I've been taking several supplements (a multi-vitamin, an iron supplement, a vitamin C supplement, and a magnesium supplement), all of which state that they are gluten free on the label.
