Low Fat, High Carb, Gluten Free/dairy Free Recipes Preferrably For Christmas

Ever since going gluten free, it's been a BIG pain finding good things to carb-up on (a training thing. One day of very low fat, high carbs). At first I thought it was easy, but this time I actually read the labels and found out most everything I was eating was pretty fatty.

The only thing I could find this week was pancakes, cereal, and pasta. All of which were kind of boring, and the pasta was definitely not my bag.

My next carb-up happens to fall on Christmas and I'd greatly appreciate it if you all share some low fat treats.

BTW how do you use that search function? I do the "search item site:www.glutenfreeforum.com" thing, but the results are always very poor. Is that just what I have to deal with?

grains, legumes, starchy vegetables are all higher in carbohydrates and fat free or almost fat free.

How about rice or fruit?

It's best to avoid fiber and fructose as much as you can during a carb-load.

Last night I did a lot of searching on the net and decided to go with a Mexican Christmas. Lots of rice, corn tortillas, quinoa (hope it doesn't have too much fiber), and sugary stuff.

White rice has less fiber than brown rice.

Quinoa I believe has quite a bit of fiber, as well as some protein. If it's ok, there is a quinoa/corn blend pasta that is really tasty imo.

What about potatoes?

There have been a few threads in the sports/fitness section that might be helpful to you for gluten-free carb loading ideas, here is an example:

Potatoes are fine, it's just that I was starting to get really into my carb ups and all. All those tasty little pastries I was discovering are now a thing of the past, and sadly can never be eaten again. Now I'm stuck with oats, potatoes, corn, and other less elaborate things.

Thanks for that link by the way. I'll be sure to look all over that forum for some ideas. So far it looks like they haven't had much more than what I found so far. :(

.... Oh well, at least I have my bacon. :D

      Burning sensation when I wake up

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Please be sure to try Benfotiamine or Thiamine Hydrochloride.  The form Thiamine Mononitrate is not absorbed nor utilized well.  Benfotiamine is much more bioavailable.  Perhaps Thiamine Mononitrate was in your previous B Complex supplements, explaining why they didn't work for you.   All the B vitamins work together.  Thiamine needs the other B vitamins to make enzymes and ATP, so you will need to take them.  Taking them in individual supplements is fine.  I've done the same.  Just remember you need all eight.   Let me know how it's going for you!

      Thanks! I am currently trying B1 out on its own. I tried many brands of B-complex and they always make me feel nauseous and tired. I think I may have to try taking each B vitamin on its own.

      Are you supplementing any vitamins?  Recently added medications? the ones that helped me the most noticibly was increasing vitamin D blood level to 80 ng/ml and Iodine to 500 mcg once or twice a day, Thiamine, Choline, and Iodine, B6 speeds up gastric motility, gastric motility, which is the movement of food through the stomach, is primarily achieved through peristalsis. Moving food faster helps bloating. 10,000 IU vitamin D 500 mg Thiamine or more Choline  brain fog, fat digestion.  Since the recommended reduction in red meat and eggs, experts estimate that only 10% of the population eats the minimum RDA., 500 mg.  Choline is a large percentage of bile.  Many Celiacs are first diagnosed as Gall Bladder surgery candidates.  It works for a while, fut the the symptoms come back. Iodine – 600 to 1200 mcg of Liquid Iodine Vitamin B2 helps break down proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. It plays a vital role in maintaining the body's energy supply.  500 mg Pantothenic Acid vitamin B5 Low fat yogurt.  My favorite brand is Stonyfield.  Pasture fed means an omega 6:3 ratio of 1:1.  Comercial dairies feed grains and have omega 6:3 ratio  of 5:1.  Omega 3 is healing, omega 6 is inflammatory. No fat yogurts, including greek style has various gums added to replicate the fatty mouth feel, and these gums like guar gum can have several side effects, especially if low vitamin B6 causes poor gastric emptying. Omega-3 and Omega-6 Fatty Acids in Vegetables  Eating more of the vegetables low in omega six and high omega 3 can reduce inflammation. The American diet is fortified.  Gluten free foods are not.
