Lillie: Ener-G has a wide variety of different breads. Unfortunately local stores only carry a few versions. I'm lucky enough to live within driving distance (about 20 minutes) from their bakery/factory, so I have discovered some of their breads that I LOVE. If you're looking for 'Wonder Bread' consistency, they even have a few really light breads like that. If you're looking for heavy, dense 'whole wheat' consistency their "Harvest Bread" tastes very much like 'whole wheat'. They offer a variety sampler pack of 9 different breads in 2 slice packages, if you would like to try other varieties of their breads. However, you must order that online. Actually, ordering online will give you access to their best products. I also like their brown rice sweet potato English Muffins and a 'corn loaf' which is very low calorie, high fiber bread--good for sandwiches with high calorie fillings. :lol: 'Sorry if I sound like an ad for Ener-G. :unsure: I also love 'Food For Life' Brown Rice Pecan bread which is available in many 'Whole Foods' and Trader Joe's and is less expensive than Ener-G's Harvest Bread, but tastes very similar.

well i did buy a loaf of the plain white bread some time ago, and it was so horrible. it was really hard ( not soft like bread should be) and had a really weird taste. Im thinking i may have just gotten a bad loaf, becuz i hear other people mention liking that bread.

i guess i will take a chance and buy this loaf. I just hate to pay 6.00 for something that i wont like.

thanks for the info!!

the tapioca bread (and likely the rice bread) work fine for stuffing. ;-)

Lillie: My husband is trying the Ener-G bread sampler pack. He hates the white rice, brown rice breads and anything with rice flour as the first ingredient. He did like the tapioca bread, though. I won't touch anything that looks like Wonderbread, so I prefer the Food For Life Rice Pecan or Ener-G's dark Harvest bread. The sampler pack might be a good way for you to try 10 different varieties without investing in a whole loaf. I like breads with corn or potato flour as their first ingredient, but I prefer heavy, rather than light, fluffy breads. :lol:

The rice breads taste their best when toasted.

      Thank you for responding and for prayers. So sorry for your struggles, I will keep you in mine. You are so young to have so many struggles, mine are mild by comparison. I didn't have Celiac Disease (celiac disease) until I had my gallbladder removed 13 years ago; at least nothing I was aware of. Following surgery: multiple symptoms/oddities appeared including...

      When I accidentally consume gluten it compromises the well-being of my heart and arteries. Last time I had a significant exposure, about six months ago, I had AFib for about ten days. It came on every day around dinner time. After the ten days or so it went away and hasn't come back. My cardiologist offered me a collection of pharmaceuticals at the time...

      Hi! I had my first episode of AFib last May when I was 30 (I have had some heart stuff my whole life but nothing this extreme). I was not diagnosed with celiac until the beginning of this month in October of 2025. I was in the early stages of celiac, so I'm not sure if they were related (maybe!) All of my heart tests came back normal except for my electrolytes...

      I followed the Autoimmune Protocol Diet which is really strict for a while, but later other foods can be added back into your diet. Following the AIP diet strictly allows you digestive system to heal and the inflammation to calm down. Sort of like feeding a sick baby easy to digest food instead of spicy pizza. It's important to get the inflammation...

      Thank you for responding and for prayers.  So sorry for your struggles, I will keep you in mine.  You are so young to have so many struggles, mine are mild by comparison.  I didn't have Celiac Disease (celiac disease) until I had my gallbladder removed 13 years ago; at least nothing I was aware of.  Following surgery: multiple symptoms/oddities appeared including ridges on fingernails, eczema, hair falling out in patches, dry eyes, upset stomach constantly and other weird symptoms that I don't really remember.  Gastro did tests and endoscopy and verified celiac disease. Re heart: I was born with Mitral Valve Prolapse (MVP) and an irregular heartbeat, yet heart was extremely strong.  It was difficult to pick up the irregular heartbeat on the EKG per cardiologist.  I had Covid at 77, recovered in 10 days and 2 weeks later developed long Covid. What the doctors and nurses called the "kickoff to long Covid, was A-fib.  I didn't know what was going on with my heart and had ignored early symptoms as some kind of passing aftereffect stemming from Covid.  I was right about where it came from, but wrong on it being "passing".  I have A-fib as my permanent reminder of Covid and take Flecainide every morning and night and will for the rest of my life to stabilize my heartbeat.

      Hi! I had my first episode of AFib last May when I was 30 (I have had some heart stuff my whole life but nothing this extreme). I was not diagnosed with celiac until the beginning of this month in October of 2025. I was in the early stages of celiac, so I'm not sure if they were related (maybe!) All of my heart tests came back normal except for my electrolytes (potassium and magnesium) that were low when the AFib occurred. I also became pregnant with our third and last baby a couple weeks after I came back from that hospital stay. I had no heart complications after that whole thing. And I still haven't over a year later. It was definitely scary and I hope it doesn't happen again. I drink an electrolyte drink mix about every day, and I'm sure being on a gluten-free diet will help my body even more! I will pray for you in this. Taking care of our bodies is so challenging but Jesus is with us every step of the way. He cares and He sees you!

      I followed the Autoimmune Protocol Diet which is really strict for a while, but later other foods can be added back into your diet.  Following the AIP diet strictly allows you digestive system to heal and the inflammation to calm down.  Sort of like feeding a sick baby easy to digest food instead of spicy pizza.   It's important to get the inflammation down because chronic inflammation leads to other health problems.  Histamine is released as part of the autoimmune response to gluten.  High histamine levels make you feel bad and can cause breathing problems (worsening asthma), cardiovascular problems (tachycardia), and other autoimmune diseases (Hashimoto's thyroiditis, diabetes) and even mental health problems. Following the low histamine version of the AIP diet allows the body to clear the histamine from our bodies.  Some foods are high in histamine.  Avoiding these makes it easier for our bodies to clear the histamine released after a gluten exposure.   Vitamin D helps regulate the immune system and calm it down.  Vitamin D is frequently low in Celiacs.  The B Complex vitamins and Vitamin C are needed to clear histamine.   Supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals boosts your intestines' ability to absorb them while healing.   Keep in mind that gluten-free facsimile foods, like gluten-free bread, are not enriched with added vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts are.   They are empty calories, no nutritional value, which use up your B vitamins in order to turn the calories into fuel for the body to function.   Talk to your doctor or nutritionist about supplementing while healing.  Take a good B Complex and extra Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine (shown to promote gut health).  Most B Complex vitamins contain thiamine mononitrate which the body cannot utilize.  Meats and liver are good sources of B vitamins.   Dr. Sarah Ballantyne wrote the book, the Paleo Approach.  She's a Celiac herself.  Her book explains a lot.   I'm so glad you're feeling better and finding your balance!
