Can anyone reccomend a good gluten-free granola? I saw a couple at the store but they are very expensive and I would hate to buy it and it taste bad.

some people really like the Enjoy Life Foods granola... personally I think it has a weird taste, but you never know, you may like it. I love other products they have, just not that one. It's not terrible, just not something I personally like.

You may find a recipe for one that you can make yourself. My mom used to make home made granola when I was growing up, I'm sure it could be easily converted to gluten free.

Im one of the "Enjoy Lifers"-- i love the stuff.. i like the cinnamon crunch flavor and a box at my local store (same size as a cereal box) is only $4.15 (same price as a box of cereal). But, ive heard there is some inconsistency w/ this brand- some people have said they have bought boxes that tasted absolutely horrible? Ive never experienced this. I like it with milk or w/ yogurt-- sometimes i add flaxseed to it but this is not necessary as all the brands have 6 or 7 grams of fiber.

The best granola we've tried is Energy brand " Trail Mix". Frankly, I'm not too keen on a lot of Energy's prepared items....mostly I just use their flours; but this granola is really great. Now they have granola bars too-but that's not what we buy. The Trail Mix is in a box about the same size as their flours come in and its really great to sprinkle on top of yogurt, etc. My granddaughter actually cooks it as a hot cerial and loves it.

      It is more likely code for “we think there really was a good response to the treatment, but it was small or in a small percent of subjects so it would take a large clinical trial to try to prove it.”

      Thank you so much for your replies. Luckily the rash went away when I completely swore off gluten. It took several months but I have not had a flare in months. So a biopsy is no longer possible. The itch was terrible and apart from bleaching my skin the steroid lotions and potions did nothing. The Gliadin is for accidents and shall be a part of my travel kit from now on. This past exposure has made a me a little leery about eating anything that was not cooked in my kitchen or a dedicated gluten-free restaurant. As much as I used to love baked goods, I am cured and have become quite the gluten free baker to the point that friends and family forget that my cakes/cookies/and bread are not "real". I guess I will have to wait for the new blood test to come out to get confirmation but I have a suspicion that the rash was dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Hello, I just wanted to share with the frustration of skin issues and seeing dermatologist and medications not working for years, I did my own healing experiment. As of last week I have been taking a drop internally under the tongue of Vetiver and putting on topically on sores Yellow/Pom.I am seeing a extreme difference at a rapid time.Im also noticing my nails a little harder. Ive always been into natural properties because I feel its safer for the body.I know short time, but really seeing a difference. I also feel the the trapped gases that causes bloating helps break down as well.Curious if any body else can benefit from and has tried. Products is made by Doterra by Dr Hill

      I agree with @trents, and the rash you described, especially its location and resistance to steroids, sounds highly characteristic of dermatitis herpetiformis, which is the skin manifestation of celiac disease. The severe and prolonged reaction you're describing five days after a small exposure is, while extreme, not unheard of for those with a high sensitivity; the systemic inflammatory response can absolutely last for several days or even weeks, explaining why you still don't feel right. Your plan to avoid a formal gluten challenge is completely understandable given the severity of your reactions, and many choose the same path for their well-being. While experiences with GliadinX (they are a sponsor here) are mixed, some people do report a reduction in the severity of their symptoms when taken with accidental gluten, though it is crucial to remember it is not a cure or a license to eat gluten and its effectiveness can vary from person to person. For now, the absolute best advice is to continue being hyper-vigilant about cross-contamination—buffets are notoriously high-risk, even with good intentions. Connecting with a gastroenterologist and a dermatologist who specialize in celiac disease is essential for navigating diagnosis and management moving forward. Wishing you a swift recovery from this last exposure. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:
