Is Flourless Sprouted Whole Grain Bread Ok?


Melzee

Recommended Posts

Does anyone know if the Ezekiel flourless sprouted whole grain bread is OK? I have been searching for a bread that has the same texture as "regular" bread, but still haven't found anything that is gluten free and good. The Ezekiel would be acceptable if it is in fact gluten-free. Or does anyone have any suggestions on a decent bread or recipe?? HELP!

If you read the ingredient list, you'll see that the Ezekiel bread is still made from grains we can't have, which means that it is *not* safe.

I don't have a good alternative for you as I've opted to do without bread - it was a fairly easy adaptation.

Hi, do a bit of a search on this forum and you'll see some bread recipes recommended. I personally am using one that was posted here that is made on the fast cycle of a bread machine. We like it and I have served it to several non gluten-free people who were very surprised it was gluten-free.

Hi 'Melzee',

A lot of people don't want to or have not got the time to make bread from scratch, they prefer to use

bread mixes ! I on the other hand have developed delicious bread made from scratch.

.

If you have time and are interested in making bread that behaves like wheat bread and tastes great

here are a couple of links, (you even get a photo of the finished product).

Dave-Thanks for the tip on the bread recipes. I have tried both from scratch and mixes, not to mention store bought bread and still haven't found any that my hubby will eat. I'll give these two a shot. Actually the Crusty artisan bread looks pretty good from the picture. It's my husband that has Celiac and he's always been a picky eater too, a double whammy for me as the chief cook here at home. Keep your fingers crossed that he might like one of these!! Thanks again!!

As stated that bread is not safe, the one bread company I have found that has a bread with the same texture as the poison stuff is Kinnikinnick. They can be ordered from on line and some stores may be able to stock it for you. They have an italian white and a brown rice that are really good as well as pizza crusts and oreo type cookies that you can actually bite into.

I really like www.glutenfree4me.com

Their bread comes thinly sliced, and it is delicious. I also like using their hot dog buns...not for hot dogs, but for slicing it up and using with dips, etc.

Not safe. I fell for that one when daughter was first diagnosed. Lady at the health food store insisted it was safe because when sprouted, it becomes a "live" food. And that may be. But it's still wheat or spelt or whatever grain it is. Daughter got really sick from the stuff.

      @Colleen H   I am just curious,  when you were tested for coeliac disease, did the doctors find out if you had any deficiencies? Sometimes muscle pain can be caused by certain deficiencies, for example, magnesium, vitamin D, calcium, and potassium.   Might be worth looking into having some more tests.  Pins and needles can be neuropathy, again caused by deficiencies, such as iron and B12,  which can be reversed if these deficiencies are addressed. In the UK where I live we are usually only tested for iron, B12 and vitamin D deficiencies at diagnosis.   I was very iron anemic and supplementation made a big difference.  B12 was low normal, but in other countries the UK's low normal would be considered a deficiency.  My vitamin D was low normal, and I've been supplementing ever since (when I remember to take it!) My pins and needles definitely started to improve when my known deficiencies were addressed.  My nutritionist also gave me a broad spectrum supplement which really helped, because I suspect I wasn't just deficient in what I mention above but in many other vitamins and minerals.  But a word of warning, don't take iron unless blood tests reveal you actually need it, and if you are taking it your levels must be regularly monitored because too much can make you ill.  (And if you are currently taking iron, that might actually be making your stomach sore - it did mine, so my GP changed my iron supplementation to a gentler form, ferrous gluconate). Lastly, have you been trying to take anything to lessen the pain in your gut?  I get a sore stomach periodically, usually when I've had too much rich food, or when I have had to take an aspirin or certain antibiotics, or after glutening.  When this happens, I take for just a few days a small daily dose of OTC omeprazole.  I also follow a reflux or gastritis diet. There are lots online but the common denominators to these diets is you need to cut out caffeine, alcohol, rich, spicy, acidic food etc and eat small regularly spaced meals.   When I get a sore stomach, I also find it helpful to drink lots of water.  I also find hot water with a few slices of ginger very soothing to sip, or camomile tea.  A wedge pillow at night is good for reflux. Also,  best not to eat a meal 2-3 hours before going to bed. If the stomach pain is getting worse, though, it would be wise to see the doctor again. I hope some of this helps. Cristiana

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed that I feel nauseous after possibly being glutened. I think the thing that I have got better at is knowing what to do when I feel wiped out after a gluten 'episode'. I drink loads of water, and have just started drinking peppermint tea. I also have rehydration powders to drink. I don't feel like eating much, but eventually feel like I need to eat. Gluten free flapjacks, or gluten free cereal, or a small gluten free kids meal are my go to. I am retired, so luckily I can rest, sometimes even going to bed when nothing else works. So I feel that I am getting better at knowing how to try and get back on track. I am also trying to stick to a simpler menu and eat mostly at home so that I can be more confident about what I am eating. THANKS TO THOSE WHO REPLIED ABOUT THE NAUSEA .

      Thanks. Since the back and forth and promises of review and general stalling went on for more than six months, the credit company will no longer investigate. They have a cutoff of maybe six months.

      Is this the same restaurant? https://www.facebook.com/TheHappyTartFallsChurch/ Is it too late to take this up with your credit card company? Normally you have a few months to do a chargeback with them. It seems very odd that they are taking this approach with someone who is likely to be a regular customer--not a good business-minded way of handling things!

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.
