gluten-free Bread

A common complaint I notice from time to time is the lack of a bread you can buy which comes close to the same flavor/texture as traditional bread. Recently my wife brought home some bread by "Glutino". It is made in Quebec, Canada. The reason I don't think we bought it before was because of the name on the package. It said Corn Bread. The only thing in it that relates to corn is corn starch. It looks like white sandwich bread and has the texture and flavor of sourdough when toasted. It is light in weight. I think the name is what throws some people off. I called them and mentioned how much it tastes like regular bread. Their response is that they have been working on the product for a long time. They also make a flax seed bread which is also good. I have been looking at maybe buying a case (12 loaves) and freezing. I have tried the main gluten-free breads available and will not mention names because I appreciate any company who tries to make a gluten-free product. The light weight and texture of this product make it far superior in my opinion. Has anyone else tried this product and what was your response. The phone number for Glutino is 1-800-363-3438. Any questions about the ingredients could be answered. The label does mention that traces of soy may be in the bread.

I haven't had their bread yet. I can't find it locally(out here in the sticks), and I'm afraid to order a case from the co-op that I order from. I have had their bagels(plain and cinnamon raisin), and they are first rate. The are a bit denser than a "normal" bagel, but the texture is pretty close to those toxic bagels I used to enjoy so much. They are normal sized too, not like the mini-bagels that Enjoy Life turns out. I would be interested in getting ahold of a loaf to try.

Yes, Glutino is a great product. Everything Ive tried was excellent. They even make gluten-free ice cream cones. :P

Im in the middle of healing so Im passing on the bread only because I think I react to the yeast. Ill have to wait a while to try that. Wholefoods market and mostly all health food stores carry Glutino products.

Glutino and Gluten Free Pantry merged, so now I've been seeing more Glutino products locally. I think that is helping to get Glutino out with the distribution GFP has. I haven't bought anything yet, but it looks like I should!

Thanks for the heads up on the "corn" bread AND the ice cream cones. I've only tried a couple of Glutino's products, just the chocolate breakfast bars which tasted like prunes to me, and the bread sticks, which were just okay. I just hadn't thought to try their bread yet. And I never would have thought to try their cornbread while looking for a sandwich or toast type bread.

Thanks again!

Gotta go place an order now!

I've not tried the bread yet, but I definitely will! I love everything I've ever had from both Glutino and GFP, so I'm glad they've merged. I'll have to find more ways to get ahold of the stuff!

      I don't see how cornstarch could alter the test results. Where did you read that?

      For pain relief I take a combination of Thiamine (Benfotiamine), Pyridoxine B 6, and Cobalamine B12.  The combination of these three vitamins has analgesic effects.  I have back pain and this really works.  The B vitamins are water soluble and easily excreted.   Hope this helps!  Keep us posted on your results!

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Xravith. I experienced similar symptoms before my diagnosis.  Mine were due to the loss of vitamins and minerals, essential nutrients we must get from our food.  With Celiac Disease, the intestinal lining, made up of thousands of villi, gets damaged and cannot absorb essential vitamins and minerals, especially the eight B vitamins.  The loss of Thiamine B 1 can cause muscle loss, inability to gain weight, edema (swelling), fatigue, migraines and palpitations.  Low thiamine can cause Gastrointestinal Beriberi with symptoms of nausea, abdominal pain and bloating.   Thiamine is only stored for a couple of weeks, so if you don't absorb enough from food daily, as the thiamine deficiency worsens physical symptoms gradually worsen.  If you're eating lots of carbs (like gluten containing foods usually do), you need more thiamine to process them (called high calorie malnutrition).  Thiamine works with all the other B vitamins, so if you're low in one, you're probably getting low in the others, too, and minerals like iron, magnesium, zinc, and calcium, as well as Vitamin D..  Talk to your doctor about checking for nutritional deficiencies.  Most doctors rarely recognize vitamin deficiency symptoms, especially in thiamine. Get a DNA test to see if you carry any Celiac genes.  If you do not have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably IBS.  If you do have genetic markers for Celiac, it's probably Celiac.  I was misdiagnosed with IBS for years before my Celiac diagnosis.   Keep us posted on your progress. P. S. Deficiency in thiamine can cause false negatives on antibody tests, as can diabetes and anemia.

      No she didn't because if I want to ask I have to pay 700$ for 1 hour appointment so I couldn't even ask. I read that fillers like cornstash can alter the result and tylenol contains it so that's why I tried to find someone who can answer.

      Did the GI doc give you any rational for stopping the Tylenol during the gluten challenge? I have never heard of this before and I can't imagine a good reason for it. Ibuprofen, maybe, because it is an anti inflammatory but acetaminophen?  I don't see that it would have any impact on the test results to take Tylenol.
