Safe Brand Of Brown Rice Flour

Recommended Posts

I am very sensitive when it comes to cross contamination. I don't trust Bob's Mill and I wanna find a Brown Rice Flour that is safe. Do you have a brand that you use that you trust and can recommend?

Thanks!

Well I use Bobs but how about Authentic Foods? They are pretty pricey though.

Why don't you trust Bob's Red Mill brand? Have people had problems with their gluten-free flours? We've been using Bob's brown rice, white rice, tapioca, potato, amaranth, sorghum and teff flours.

I thought it would be safe because they test the product to verify that it is gluten-free. Unfortunately, I don't seem to have any noticeable reactions to gluten so I wouldn't know if I'm being glutened or not.

There are some people who have reacted to it.

Even though I am extremely sensitive (rarely eat out bc I get so sick), I have used Bob's Red Mill for the past year or so and absolutely love it. I use many of their products and have not reacted. I personally trust them.

I use Ener-g flours--rice flours and potato starch. Never a problem--

bob's red mill makes their gluten free products in a dedicated facility----so there really should not be a problem with cross contamination.

I haven't had any problems with Arrowhead Mills flours, though I do use Bob's Red Mill flours as well, and so far no problems there either.

I use Lundberg Farms brown rice flour. I buy it in 25 lb sacks from my health food store and get a discount.

I use Kinnikinnick's flours. They are made in a gluten free facility and I've had much better success with them than most other flours. For some reason my baked goods tend to turn out better if I'm using them rather than other brands. Perhaps it has something to do with the texture or something. I don't know. Anyway, you can buy them online at www.kinnikinnick.com or other gluten free websites that sell Kinnikinnick. Many of their items are also dairy free. Each item on the website tells you what it's free of (ie: corn, soy, casein, gluten free). Perhaps you will be able to find something else that your system can tolerate, though I think they use potato starch in most of their baked goods. I might be wrong. Worth checking into if you're really limited.

Thank you everyone for your replies. I have tried some Bob's Mills stuff and somethimes it's been fine but a few times I felt sick after. Not a lot, so I am not sure. I saw other people saying that they reacted to them on here so I thought I'd try something else.

I'll check all of your suggestions. Thanks again.

      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.

      Are Bobresmill gluten free oats ok for sensitive celiacs?
    • jenniber
      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.
