Hey Karen, I got that issue a couple of weeks ago and wrote to the magazine. I said that I thought it was great that they were promoting Celiac and gluten-free recipes, but that I wished the article had focused less on the "classic" symptoms, mentioned some symptoms kids/adults might have: irritability, anemia, brain fog, etc. and told them to keep up the good work. I had to send it by snail mail though, the e-mail had a limit on words used.

I thought some of the ingredients were a bit out there. Like the bean flour made of some bean paste I've never heard of and I can't remember the name and I'm too lazy to walk to the kitchen to look it up. And almond flour...pricey! Give us recipes with cheaper ingredients, so when my 6 year old won't it them, I don't feel like I've wasted a ton of $$$.

I might write to Kraft Kitchens and encourage them to do some gluten-free recipes, too.

There's a link to three other gluten-free recipes from Canadian Living that AREN'T in the article in the April issue.

Hmm. Link won't work. Google Canadian Living and then in the recipe search type in GLUTEN. Not gluten free or else all the other dairy free, sugar free, whatever free recipes will come up. There was a butter tart bar, crepes and something else that I've forgotten in the last 2 minutes since I closed the website down.

I know! Adzuki beans. What the heck is that??? :huh:

I have already written to Kraft, but the more letters they receive the better! I just received my "What's Cooking" magazine from them today (it comes out 5 times a year and it is free!).

Adzuki beans are a red bean used often in Japanese cooking. I thnk they are sold dried, but I'm not sure--I'll ask DH when he gets home, but he's 3rd generation, doesn't cook, and is a true American glutenaholic, so he probably won't know.

All those recipes sound fantastic. I'm getting hungry just imagining them....

I see cans of adzuki beans all the time. I just picked up the magazine and they have some of my favorite Cuban foods also that don't contain gluten.

Well for the article, I think they were truly just focasing on recipes rather than on the symptoms of the disease and the effects.

      Her result for the TTG Ab (IgA) was 19. Lab range 0.0 - 0.7. U/ml.

      TTG would refer to a blood antibody test. Not valid if you are already eating gluten free or mostly so. DQH would refer to a genetic test to see if you possess either or both of the two genes that have been connected most strongly to developing active celiac disease. The genetic test is more of a rule out measure than a diagnostic test as about 40% of the general population have one or both of those genes but only about 1% of the general population develops active celiac disease. If you don't have the genes but gluten causes you issues then the conclusion is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. So, the genetic testing helps with a differential diagnosis. I don't know about the 2P. 2 Pairs of genes?

      Tell him to get me a case...just kidding! I wonder why they are not labelled gluten-free here in the USA? They don't have gluten ingredients.

      Glad this helped. There are lots of alternative breads out there, so someone has likely made some sort of paleo bread with no grain. And if you bake, experiment with some of the alternative flours to see what you can come up with. If you commit to the gluten-free diet 100%, you may want to do a bit of research on some of the tricker aspects of getting gluten out of your diet, such as cross contamination in the home kitchen (pots and pans, cutting boards, toaster, airborne flour). Don't feel you have to do everything at once, or let this overwhelm you. I've always said that going gluten free is a process, not a moment. The reason I mention this is that, if you think you are gluten-free, but still having symptoms, you may realize that even minute amounts of gluten cause a reaction for a while. Let me know if you have any questions.  Pam

      The doctor was correct--if you are gluten-free the blood panel for celiac disease will not work, you would need to go on gluten challenge in order to be tested. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.
