Rice Pecan Bread

At my local market (!!!!) I saw in the freezer two loaves of Good For Life gluten free bread....a plain rice one and a rice-pecan one. Has anyone tried these? They seemed very dense and heavy. I'm looking for something that will toast decently.

I tried them both early on--they were the first gluten-free bread I found. The white was terrible--even toasted. The Rice Pecan was ok toasted, but I never bought it again. Another thing was that I kept them in the freezer and it was impossible to get the slices apart. Sorry to anyone who likes it :ph34r:

That was pretty rude of me to not even suggest an alternative! If you have a Whole Foods nearby, their Gluten Free Bakeshop Cinnamon Rasin Bread and the Sandwich Bread are very good.

I agree, the Food for Life breads are awful. I got through about half a loaf then couldn't take any more, so I pitched it in the trash.

I haven't found any good sandwich breads at all, but Glutino's cinnamon raisin bread is nice toasted with peanut butter on it.

I had some Sterk's bread toasted last night with tuna on it and even that was terrible. I think I've given up on sandwich bread forever... :(

I didn't like the pecan rice bread either, it was my very first thing gluten-free and my hubby brought it home for me. Let me tell you I could have killed someone with that bread. It was the worst I have ever eaten.For a breakfast bread I like the black china rice bread but it is hard to find--- I know whole foods carries it and I do like it with peanut butter or cream cheese.

I like challah bread from either Mr. Ritts in Philly or Everybody Eats in Brooklyn.My fav is anna's bread mix. I always keep a couple of different kinds in my freezer.. Also I have used and liked the bread from The Grainless Baker in Pa. I make reuben's out of there mock rye..

Oh Darn!

I have some of that right now in my freezer that I just bought! It sounded good- because of the nuts and all...

YUCK!!

I love the kinnikinick Tapioca Raisin one that I have already started. It is fabulous. Reminiscent of a challah bread or sweet bread with raisins. Love it!

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
