Yummy Quinoa And Rice

I am enjoying leftover quinoa and rice for lunch. I cooked up a turkey breast last night and I was looking for a side dish. I remembered that i have an open box f quinoa in the pantry. I decided to mix it up a bit, so I mixed the quinoa in with about twice as much Lundburg's wild rice mix (1 c. rice to about 1/2 c. quinoa 2 1/2 c. H20) and cooked it up in Chicken broth made from powder (about a Tbsp of HerbOx). While that was boiling I chopped (more like diced) up a carrot, half and onion and some small broccoli florets. I sauteed them for a couple minutes until they were just soft and tossed them in the quinoa/rice once it was finished. YUMMY! :D

I have to give myself a pat on the back while I'm at it. I made gravy for the turkey, and it didn't turn to paste! :)

This is precisely why I like being coeliac, well not really, but being coeliac has opened up new doors in the pantry so to speak. It has forced me to try new and different foods, that I would never have thought of trying in a million of years. Gone are the days, where we will have this and that, now I think oh I would like to try that, and maybe see what I can do with this. It is bringing out the inventiveness in me. I'm no longer a predictable cook, nobody quite knows what is going to be on the table next. I've had to brush up on my cooking skills, but there's nothing wrong with that either.

Quinoa is one of those things I have discovered,and is so versatile, as in can be used for breakfast lunch and tea. But with rice, I never ever thought of mixing the two, but I will give it a go.

      Your high lactulose test, indicating out of control Small Itenstinal Bacterial O,vergrowth is one symptom.  You likely have low vitamin D, another symptom.  Unless you get lots of sun.   Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption, often leading to subclinical vitamin deficiencies.  A lot of people have these symptoms just before an acute phase of Celiac Disease.  Each of the symptoms can have multiple causes that are not celiac disease,  but when you start having multiple symptoms,  and each symptom is treated as a separate disease,  you have to think, maybe these are all one cause. celiac disease. There is a misconception that Celiac Disease is  a gastrointestinal disease and symptoms are only gastro related.  Wrong.  It is an autoimmune disease and has many symptoms that usually are disregarded.  I made that mistake until 63 y.o.  It can cause a dermatitis herpetiformis rash,  white spots on the brain.  It caused my alcoholism, arthritis, congested sineses, protein spots on my contacts lenses, swollen prostate, symptoms that are "part of aging". You may be tolerating gluten, the damage will happen. Of curiosity though, your age, sex, are you outside a lot without sunscreen?

      It would be interesting to see if you were tested again for blood antibodies after abandoning the gluten free diet for several weeks to a few months what the results would be. Don't misunderstand me. I'm not necessarily suggesting you do this but it is an option to think about. I guess I'm saying there is a question in my mind as to whether you actually ever had celiac disease. As I said above, the blood antibody testing can yield false positives. And it is also true that celiac-like symptoms can be produced by other medical conditions.

      Thank you for the reply In the early 2000's I did not have the endoscopy nor the biopsy I do not have those initial records I have only consulted a GI drs in the USA

      Welcome to the forum, @numike! We sometimes get reports like yours from community members who believe their celiac disease has "gone away." We think there can sometimes be cases of remission but not long term healing and that continued consumption of gluten will eventually result in a relapse. This is the state of our knowledge at this point but there is still a lot we don't know and celiac disease continues to surprise us with new findings on a frequent basis. So, we would not advise you to abandon a strict gluten-free diet. Perhaps you can draw consolation from the fact that at the present time you seem to be able to consume gluten without consequences when in situations where you do not have the option to eat gluten-free. But I would advise you to not generalize your recent experience such that you throw caution to the wind. But I want to go back to what you said about being diagnosed by blood test in the early 2000's. Did you not also have that confirmed with an endoscopy and biopsy of the small bowel lining? Normally, a celiac disease diagnosis is not concluded based on a blood test alone because there can be false positives. What kind of doctor did this testing? Was it done in the U.S. or overseas? In the last few years, it has become common in the U.K. to grant a celiac diagnosis from blood testing alone if the antibody test scores are 10x normal or greater. But that practice has not caught on in the U.S. yet and was not in place internationally in the early 2000's. Do you have a record of the tests that were done, the scores and also the reference ranges for negative vs. positive for the tests?
