Ener-g

I haven't been "glutened" in a long time now, but I've been "corned" many times. It seems that I'm noticing a greater presence of corn in products than gluten.

Anyway, I always relied on Ener-G for egg replacer, but now that I'm corn intolerant also, I need to find a gluten-free, CF egg replacer.

I didn't even check the ingredients on the Ener-G Egg Replacer because I wasn't always corn intolerant.

Does anyone know of a dairy free, gluten free, corn free egg replacer?

Thanks,

Scott

i posted this the other day in this thread: Open Original Shared Link

my rules of thumb:

for eggs, there are two functions, as a binder or a leavener.

as a binder in bread, i use 1 tbsp. flaxseed + 3 tbsp. warm water; or 1 tbsp. gelatin + 3 tbsp. warm water; or 3 tbsp. pureed prunes.

for leavening, i use ener-g egg replacer, or 1 tbsp. baking power + 1 tbsp. vinegar (or oil) + 1 tbsp. water.

i generally use the flax method, prune method, or egg replacer methods

I just bought a box of Ener-G egg replacer - I don't see anything in the ingredients list that would include corn. What are you referring to?

Ingredients:

Potato starch, tapioca flour, leavening (calcium lactate, calcium carbonate, citric acid) cellulose gum, carbohydrate gum. Calcium lactate is not dairy derived. It does not contain lactose.

artgirl - the citric acid is corn derived.

DARN! :angry: good thing I didn't open it so I can return it.

      But yes seeing all those negatives does give me a bit of doubt! I feel confident but those results give me a seed of doubt. Especially since it's a lifelong diet for him!

      When I originally posted I hadn't talked to the pediatrician yet and didn't realize about the budosinide. Now I feel pretty confident. I was concerned that all of the tests didn't come back positive - that seemed kind of ambiguous to me. I didn't realize that was common. Do a lot of people on here have a positive tTG but negative other tests? I thought the EMA was pretty "gold standard."  And yes I do now wonder about the asthma! I hope being gluten free will improve that!

      @lizzie42, So, I'm confused with what you are uncertain about. Do you really have any doubt that your 5 year-old son has celiac disease? Is it because he isn't exhibiting anemia and the rash as did your daughter? The genes are certainly there and the antibody testing certainly indicates celiac. And given the fact that he was on a reduced gluten diet and on a steroidal medication (which would likely suppress immune responses) do you really have any doubt? If you can't afford the GI consult with endoscopy/biopsy, why would you consider a gluten challenge after removing the remainder of the gluten from his diet? Have you considered that his asthma and "sickness" may be tied to celiac disease?

      These are my sons results. My daughter was high positive on everything and maxed out the tests in addition to being anemic, bad rash, etc.  Yes, he has been eating mostly gluten free (not completely). He was also on a high dose of budosinide at the time of testing due to some asthma and sickness. I didn't realize that affects the results.  This test along with my daughter being so sick with it prompted the pediatrician to diagnose him. We can always do a gluten challenge in the future. We will do that with our 1 year old. We will have her eat school lunch when she goes to prek and then test after a couple months.

      @lizzie42, Are the results you posted above for your daughter or for your son? If these are for your 5 year-old son, they are strongly positive and definitely suggest celiac disease. The ttg-iga is the centerpiece of celiac disease antibody testing and at 59 it is a strong positive. If you are wondering why some of the other tests are negative, you need to know that is normal. Seldom are all the antibody tests positive on a complete celiac panel.
