Gluten Free And Non Candida Feeding Baking


Guest adamssa

Recommended Posts

Hi~

I like to bake something once a week or so, I love muffins. But I'm finding it hard to find recipes that are both gluten free and either low/or non sugar--I am afraid of feeding the candida. What do you guys suggest? Would you use recipes that are just low sugar, use aspartme (bad I know),or use honey or maple syrup instead? I guess that my candida was only moderate and now I've gone through die off and have it under control. So I don't want to make the candida a problem again, but I don't want to live without baked goods if I don't have too. How much sugar/honey/aspartme is too much? Any suggestions?

Hey Sara how did you kill it off. My doc said we "would talk at my next appt. about candida testing.

I have all the symptoms. Just started to have the signs of another yeast infection.. IT IS SO FRUSTRATING!!

Hi,

I went on a low sugar, low carb diet, and took a supplement called Candidase. For sure, there was improvement. But, now my nutritional balancer says it is the reason I am still having problems, so I guess I haven't killed it off as thorougly as I'd hoped. I think I am going to start taking 3 Lac, have you heard of it? It's supposed to be extremely effective attacking and killing the evil yeast, and AMAZINGLY you can eat what you want, and can order it online. Seems worth a shot. Some even say you can eat sugar again after using it.

oh hey, have you heard of using the spit test to diagnose yourself?

i would do that if you haven't yet, and then you won't have to wait for your doctor. it's supposed to be accurate too.

The Body Ecology Diet kills yeast off pretty well. What is the spit test?

You should check in with the lowcarb folks of the world. I'm both gluten free and starch/sugar free (as much as is possible) and I often bake. I use almond flour, flax meal, coconut flour and stuff like that.

Here's a good forum for you: Open Original Shared Link?

There's a huge recipe section down towards the bottom with years of recipes. Use the search engine to find things you might like.

      Thank you for the clarification and for taking the time to explain the terminology so clearly. I really appreciate your insight, especially the distinction between celiac disease and NCGS and how anemia can point more toward celiac. This was very helpful for me.

      Hi,  My 7 year daughter has complained of this in the past, which I thought were part of her glutening symptom, but more recently I have come to figure out it's part of her histamine overload symptom. This one symptom was part of her broader profile, which included irritability, extreme hunger, confusion, post-nasal drip. You might want to look up "histamine intolerance". I wish I had known of this at the time of her diagnosis, life would have been much easier.  I hope you are able to figure out.

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior?

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.
