Cookbooks-nutrition Info

Hi,

I need cookbooks with nutrition information. I have to watch my fat grams due to another problem with my digestive ducts. (They actually found the celiac by accident when they were doing an endoscopy for my digestive ducts.) I thought Gluten-free Gourmet healthy and fast would have nutrition info and it doesn't! And some reviewers have said that those recipes aren't really healthy or reduced fat. Does anyone know if Connie Sarros (i don't know about the spelling) Wheat-free, Gluten-free Reduced Calorie cookbook is any good?

Any other suggestions?

Thanks,

Nikki

Bette Hagman's cookbooks come to mind when I think of nutritional info, but I think your best bet is doing it yourself - it's so easy. Sign up for a free account at Open Original Shared Link and enter in all the ingredients of the dish, then divide by how many servings it makes. This way you will get more accurate information because you're using the individual nutrtional info of the actual ingredients you're using, which might have different calories/fat than the exact stuff an author used.

You should also look at Open Original Shared Link for recipes. They give the nutritional info and their recipes are very good and easily adaptable... plus, they'll be naturally lower in fat, so you'll find more things you can eat!

Carol Fenster's Wheat Free Recipes and Menus has nutritional info at the bottom of each recipe. The recipes are all wheat/gluten free.

I love Connie Sarros' (I think that's the correct spelling) Wheat-Free, Gluten-Free Cookbook for Kids and Busy Adults. Most of the recipies only have a few ingredients and are actually things that real people can make in a reasonable amount of time and enjoy. I can't remember if it has nutrition information for each recipe or not. It's definitely worth checking out.

Good luck!

I know what you mean. Since diognosed with Celilac, I have gained weight. I want to eat healthy, but all the recipes have white rice flour and potato flour.

      Some of the Cocomels are gluten and dairy-free: https://cocomels.com/collections/shop-page

      Thank you for the kind words! I keep thinking that things in the medical community are improving, but a shocking number of people still post here who have already discovered gluten is their issue, and their doctors ordered a blood test and/or endoscopy for celiac disease, yet never mentioned that the protocol for such screening requires them to be eating gluten daily for weeks beforehand. Many have already gone gluten-free during their pre-screening period, thus their test results end up false negative, leaving them confused and sometimes untreated. It is sad that so few doctors attended your workshops, but it doesn't surprise me. It seems like the protocols for any type of screening should just pop up on their computer screens whenever any type of medical test is ordered, not just for celiac disease--such basic technological solutions could actually educate those in the medical community over time.

      The rate of damage to the villous lining of the SB and the corresponding loss of nutrient absorbing efficiency varies tremendously from celiac to celiac. Yes, probably is dose dependent if, by dose dependent you mean the amount of exposure to gluten. But damage rates and level of sensitivity also seem to depend on the genetic profile. Those with both genes HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8 seem to be more sensitive to minor amounts of gluten exposure than those with just one of those genes and those with only DQ2 seem to be more sensitive than those with only DQ8. But there are probably many factors that influence the damage rate to the villi as well as intensity of reaction to exposure. There is still a lot we don't know. One of the gray areas is in regard to those who are "silent" celiacs, i.e. those who seem to be asymptomatic or whose symptoms are so minor that they don't garner attention. When they get a small exposure (such as happens in cross contamination) and have no symptoms does that equate to no inflammation? We don't necessarily know. The "sensitive" celiac knows without a doubt, however, when they get exposure from cross contamination and the helps them know better what food products to avoid.

      Help!  My 5 year old daughter just stopped eating dairy and gluten due to her EoE and Celiac.  Her favorite candy in the world is tootsie rolls.  I did some research, and it sounds like these are the only options for finding something similar, but I can't find them anywhere to actually purchase.  Have they been discontinued??  Does anyone have another recommendation for a gluten-free/DF tootsie roll option?

      I wonder how long it usually takes and if it is dose dependent as well... or if some ppl have a more pronounced reaction to gluten than others   thanks again for all the great info
