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.

      Dang......did it again and yeah I should admit I am 63 with clumsy phone thumbs. I started feeling better quickly and a doctor a year later said I had to eat  poison (gluten) every day for a month so he could formally diagnose me and NO FREAKING WAY. I couldn't then and can't imagine putting my body through that crap (no pun intended) on purpose ever again.  Why ingest poison for a month to have some doctor say Hey, All you Have To Do Is Never Eat poison Again..

      15 years ago my best friend 'diagnosed' me as Celiac. Her little nephew had been formally diagnosed and her observations of me dealing with brain fog, stomach problems and other stuff had her convincing me to try going gluten free. Oh my heavens, within 3 days, no lie, I felt human again. Took me about a y

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. 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:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.
