Looking For gluten-free Food Translations Into Spanish

Does anyone out there know how to translate these gluten-free ingredients in Spanish? I can't seem to find them in Lima.

Fava flour (Is this made from ava beans? There are a lot of these out there.)

Sorghum flour (Translation software says this is sorgo or zahina, but no one in the health food

stores knows what this is. Perhaps it goes by another name. Please help me out.

If these are not available, what can I substitute to make bean flour?

While I don't have a direct answer to your question, I did a little searching and sorgo seems to be correct as far as the translation goes. I looked on

Open Original Shared Link

and it was listed on the right hand side if you scroll down.

Here's a link with lots more information.

Open Original Shared Link ( Open Original Shared Link )

That link goes in-depth about cereals and grains.

Here's an email address I found online of a person in Peru, I'm not sure where, who was advertising homemade gluten free breads. They might be able to help you out.

I found in Mexico that a lot of people at the health food stores had never heard of a lot of things that were out of the norm. You might want to search for a celiac group in Peru or another Latin American country that could council you over email. I don't know anything about the bean flour unless you could find garbanzo bean flour there. Also, if you do online searches, be aware that sometimes you will find things under celiaca and other times under celiaco, so it's a good idea to run searches for both of those words.

I don't know if that's much help or not, but it gives you a few more links to check on.

Quinoa flour is pretty versatile, or so I've heard, and should be widely available.

They also grow amaranth there, so it also may be easier to find.

Not sure how well they sub for a bean flour, if the application is particular.

      Celiac getting dentures

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      Fighting for a name

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.
