Arrowhead Mills Gluten Free Brownies are by far my favorite so far. Superb flavor,very moist. I baked these at a high altitude, and also at low altitude, and they were perfect each time. I used an 8 x8 pan....these were cake like, which I prefer. Their chocolate chip cookies were a disaster....more like peanut brittle spread all over the place. I honestly wanted to contact this company and ask for a refund.

I'm also fairly new at this and have a stash of different brands to try. Pamela's Brownies were a disaster...I misread the directions and will try them again.

Glutino honey nut and apple cinnamon cereal shaped like cheerios were superb. Their crackers that look like Ritz crackers also look good....I bought some, but haven't tried them yet.

Redbridge beer with a lime in it.....great, especially with corn tacos. ! Their website is a bit wacky. Not up to date. I'm presently in Cottonwood, AZ (I travel) and found it at Walmart. Their website said the nearest supply was Phoenix or Flagstaff. Not true.

Kinni-Kwik Bread and Bun mix was a disaster. There is no yeast in the mix, and my loaf of bread was 3" high. I will try it again, because there is some mix left over. Next time I will use warm Vance's Dari Free, and yeast and try it in the bread machine.

For those with casein/lactose problem such as me...I've been using Fleishman's Unsalted margarine for years....not always available. For some reason, certain supermarkets carry the regular Fleishman's, but not the unsalted. Never could understand that. I'm sure the store manager could order it. Smart Balance or Benecol ...the kind used for cooking and baking...will work also.

Living with my food issues is becoming easier every day. I'm still trying to perfect bread and hamburger buns "from scratch". I have found 4" Wilton miniature spring form pans at Michael's Craft Store, and they are perfect for making buns.

Tinkyada pasta hands down!

Glutino pretzels also get my vote. Even my non-gluten-free friends chow on em if I share.

Also, for those of you who aren't dairy free, if you miss a Stouffer's style frozen mac-n-cheese, Amys makes a great one!

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      I take both Benfotiamine and TTFD. You might want to start with the Benfotiamine for a few days and then add in the TTFD. You can look for NeuroMag (Magnesium Threonate). A magnesium glycinate is fine, too. Doctor's Best is a good brand. Don't take more than 300mg total per day of magnesium or it may have a laxative effect. Be sure...

      Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine has 100MG of Ben and 25 of Thia..... Do you think this is the one I should take or Objective Nutrients Thiamax (TTFD) which has 100MG Thiamine. How much magnesium should I look for? I take the womens 50+ multivitamin since consumerlabs stated and tested that it has the right amount of vitamins and not too much for...

      Glutened

      Hi all I’ve been celiac for 4 years now, I’ve done pretty well to avoid it thus far. Last night I took the wrong pizza out of the freezer and ate the whole lot!! The non gluten and gluten pizza boxes are both very similar. 2 hours later I was throwing up violently on my hands and knees over the loo. .horrendous stomach pains, My hair was wet fro...

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      Yes, do take your B Complex with Benfotiamine or Thiamax. Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins in the B Complex to make energy and enzymes, so best to take them together earlier in your day. Taking them too close to bedtime can keep you too energetic to go to sleep. The Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine is Benfotiamine and...

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      I looked further into Thiamax Vitamin B1 by objective nutrients and read all the great reviews. I think I will give this a try. I noticed only possible side affect is possibly the first week so body adjusts. Life Extensions carries Benfotiamine with Thiamine and the mega one you mentioned. Not sure if both in one is better or seperate. some reviews state...

How much magnesium should I look for? I take the womens 50+ multivitamin since consumerlabs stated and tested that it has the right amount of vitamins and not too much for men and doesn't have BHT which has shown to cause liver cancer in animals. I was never big with multivitamins as well as doctors I just read when I was first going gluten free to take a multi but I think I will stop them and work on trying the super B Thia and Ben, Mag.

      Hi all I’ve been celiac for 4 years now, I’ve done pretty well to avoid it thus far. Last night I took the wrong pizza out of the freezer and ate the whole lot!! The non gluten and gluten pizza boxes are both very similar.   2 hours later I was throwing up violently on my hands and knees over the loo.  .horrendous stomach pains,  My hair was wet from sweat every part of my body was wet. What an awful experience, just had a bad headache today  fortunately.    Is their any products/pills anyone takes if they have realised they have just been glutened to make the symptoms a little less worse.  thanks

      Yes, do take your B Complex with Benfotiamine or Thiamax.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins in the B Complex to make energy and enzymes, so best to take them together earlier in your day.  Taking them too close to bedtime can keep you too energetic to go to sleep.   The Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine is Benfotiamine and Thiamine Hydrochloride, another form of thiamine the body likes.  The Thiamine HCl just helps the Benfotiamine work better.   Read the label for how many milligrams are in them.  The Mega Benfotiamine is 250 mgs.  Another Benfothiamine has 100 mgs.  You might want to start with the 100 mg.    I like to take Thiamax in the morning with a B Complex at breakfast.  I take the Benfotiamine with another meal.  You can take your multivitamin with Benfotiamine at lunch.   Add a magnesium supplement, too.  Thiamine needs magnesium to make some important enzymes.  Life Extension makes Neuro-Mag, Magnesium Threonate, which is really beneficial.  (Don't take Magnesium Oxide.  It's not absorbed well, instead it pulls water into the digestive tract and is used to relieve constipation.)  I'm not a big fan of multivitamins because they don't always dissolve well in our intestines, and give people a false sense of security.  (There's videos on how to test how well your multivitamin dissolves.).  Multivitamins don't prevent deficiencies and aren't strong enough to correct deficiencies.   I'm happy you are trying Thiamax and Benfotiamine!  Keep us posted on your progress!  I'm happy to answer any questions you may have.

Not sure if both in one is better or seperate. some reviews state a laxative affect as side affect. SHould I take with my super B complex or just these 2 and multivitamin? I will do further research but I appreciate the wonderful explanation you provided on Thiamine.
