It seems pretty pricey - $25 for 6 #. Is there anything I could use instead?

(Bette Hagman's 4 flour blend calls for it...)

I couldn't get Authentic Foods stuff here in KS without ordering it on the internet so I used Bob's Red Mill Garbanzo Fava Bean Flour. I made Bette's 4 flour blend with it and we are really pleased. I got a small bag at our health food store and then ordered a bunch directly from Bob's Red Mill. (Shipping wasn't the cheapest but it was still cheaper than buying a bunch of little bags at the store and simpler) I noticed they now carry it on Amazon and currently have a grocery special where if you spend $49 on groceries you get $10 off instantly. (and of course free shipping) :D

If you can tolerate beans (my husband and son can) you will love the four flour blend. I used it for other of my normal recipes and it seems to work really well. We also like the bread and muffins made with it.

I am trying to get amazon to come up but our dial up internet is taking forever so I guess I'll let you price it yourself. I know when I checked earlier this year Bob's Red Mill was cheaper for me than Authentic Foods. :) Kendra

Ok--internet finally is coming through here. 88 ounces or 5.5 pounds of Garbanzo Fava Flour is $14 on amazon. (Free shipping if you spend $25 and $10 off if you spend $49 just on groceries which isn't hard to do if you are buying gluten-free stuff!)

      Hi Colleen H,   I suffered with the pins and needles/burning feeling in my legs and feet for at least  6 years until my Nephrologist figured out that I had to go on a low salt diet.  He said my kidneys weren't strong enough to remove the salt.  The simple fix was a diuretic, but that med leaves the uric acid behind, so that wasn't an option.  On the bright side the low salt diet lowered my BP over 20 points and and the pins and needles/burning feeling went away.  Good Luck and hope this helps.

      Yes this is very frustrating for me ... not sure what to think.  Feels like I'm having reactions to a lot of things  Now applesauce?? I don't understand 😞

      I did ... But aren't we going to be vitamin deficienct if we are not eating due to being sick ?? If the food we eat is gluten free and we have other sensitivities , how do we get out of the cycle??  Thank you

      Anyone else get pins and needles. ??? Burning feeling ? Heat makes it so much worse 😔  Winter is here.  I had to lower my thermostat because I couldn't take that hot air feeling 😔  Hopefully it goes away soon

      I assume that you already know that genetic testing for celiac disease cannot be used to confirm a celiac diagnosis. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. It can be used to rule out celiac disease with a high degree of confidence, however, in the case where the genetic testing is negative for the genes. Until and unless you are actually diagnosed with celiac disease I would not raise this as an issue with family. However, if you are diagnosed with celiac disease through blood antibody testing and/or endoscopy with positive biopsy I would suggest you encourage first degree relatives to also purse testing because there is a significant chance (somewhere betwee 10% and almost 50%, depending on which studies you reference) that they will also have or will develop active celiac disease. Often, there are symptoms are absent or very minor until damage to the small bowel lining or other body systems becomes significant so be prepared that they may blow you off. We call this "silent celiac disease".
