Bette Hagman Recipes Still Hurt...

Hi. I'm gluten and lactose intolerant, and I'm a huge fan of Bette Hagmann's Gluten Free Gourmet bakes bread (and makes desert) - that is, if I could eat it.

Every recipe I've tried from both books still give me the same gluten intolerant symptoms - definitely not as much as regular bread, but still enough for me to stay away.

Does anyone else have this problem? Has anyone experimented for long enough to know what the cause is? I've tried eliminating ingredients one at a time for awhile, but it seems like nothing is really working.

I really want it to work!!

I would've felt that way due to the yeast, assuming it's used.

Intestinal candida/yeast overgrowth was the culprit and it seems somewhat common around here.

I would say that you probably have an intolerance or allergy to another ingedient besides lactose and gluten. sounds like something else is going on. Either that or you're getting either of those in an ingedient that you don't realize.

I dont have that book, but a decent number of celiacs cannot tolerate tapioca, which is in almost every flour mix. the last time i ingested tapioca (from frozen rice dream), i was in pain for over a week. You should be able to sub any starch for it, but I think the tapioca is responsible for the best textured breads :angry:

I have had problems tolerating gluten free baked goods. I have been gluten free for one year and I can eat a little more of them than I could earlier this year.

I find I do better with mostly rice flours. White rice, sweet rice and brown rice are all easier on me. I use some corn starch, potato flour/starch, and tapioca, too, in smaller amounts. Even with these flours though, I have to limit the amount I eat. I cannot eat baked goods on a daily basis. When I do eat them, I try not to eat a large amount.

I find sorgum, teff and some of the bean flours to be particularly troublesome. I have to be very careful with oats. I can only tolerate a very small amount.

It seems to be fairly common to have problems with the gluten free baked goods, particularly while you are doing the initial healing.

For some yeast is a problem, too. I find that yeast does not make a difference for me. It does not matter whether it is bread, cakes, cookies, or pancakes. I just cannot eat it daily.

How about your pans - are they gluten free...I have had gluten issues for almost 4 years and finally bought myself a set of my own baking pans - muffin pan, loaf pan, and cookie sheet because the gluten free mixes still got me...it worked.

Do you have this problem with any store bought baked item? If not, I would say it is something in your process . . . pans (like NorthernElf suggested), mixer, ingredients that you may be using that were cc'd prior to going gluten free (such as baking soda/sugar) rubber spatula or wooden spoon, etc . . . are you storing your flours or sugar in a container that used to store wheat flour?

I have to use my own flour mix with her recipes when I use them. I can't tolerate potato or GMO corn or cornstarch. If I remember right she has a corn free mix and a potato free mix but not one that is free of both. In addition if you use cornstarch it may or may not contain sulfities which is an issue for some people as well.

      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

      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.
