My parents went there and brought us back goodies. Go there if you're ever in town! It's a bakery which offers great gluten-free goodness.

Yes, I received my order yesterday. Before going gluten-free, I loved Great Harvest's breads. Now, that I am gluten-free, I love them even more! Their basic white is moist and by far the cest gluten-free bread you will find! The blueberry muffins and bread are great too! Must try this stuff!

My local Great Harvest chain makes a gluten-free bread. I tried it once shortly after dx and liked it. However, the risk of cc is way too high for my sensitve gut.

The ones here in Northern VA make gluten-free bread twice a month. They clearly state that they are a wheat bakery and they try to avoid cross-contamination but don't make guarantees.

I generally find it too sweet for most sandwiches but occasionally buy it for toast. I intentionally bought a loaf the week before my last blood test. I don't see the doctor to get results until next week.

I tried it last week. The Great Harvest by my house makes it once a week. I was scarfing in down because I hadn't had bread that good in so long. But I'm pretty sure in made me sick. I didn't even get through half the loaf. Sad day. So I would be careful for cross contamination. I didn't think I was that sensitive. But maybe I am...

Our Great Harvest doesn't even try. Which is guess is a service since they truly believe that they cannot make a true gluten-free bread due to CC... but I do miss their breads. That was some good stuff!!!

      Heat intolerant... Yikes

      By captaincrab55 · Posted

      Hi Colleen H,   I suffered with the pins and needles/burning feeling in my legs and feet for at least  6 years until my Nephrologist figured out that I had to go on a low salt diet.  He said my kidneys weren't strong enough to remove the salt.  The simple fix was a diuretic, but that med leaves the uric acid behind, so that wasn't an option.  On the bright side the low salt diet lowered my BP over 20 points and and the pins and needles/burning feeling went away.  Good Luck and hope this helps.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By trents · Posted

      I assume that you already know that genetic testing for celiac disease cannot be used to confirm a celiac diagnosis. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. It can be used to rule out celiac disease with a high degree of confidence, however, in the case where the genetic testing is negative for the genes. Until and unless you are actually diagnosed with celiac disease I would not raise this as an issue with family. However, if you are diagnosed with celiac disease through blood antibody testing and/or endoscopy with positive biopsy I would suggest you encourage first degree relatives to also purse testing because there is a significant chance (somewhere betwee 10% and almost 50%, depending on which studies you reference) that they will also have or will develop active celiac disease. Often, there are symptoms are absent or very minor until damage to the small bowel lining or other body systems becomes significant so be prepared that they may blow you off. We call this "silent celiac disease".
