Matzah?

Does anybody know where I could find gluten-free oat matzah?

I can't imagine not having something to use at the seder, but I also don't want to eat something that might sicken me. I'm an Orthodox Ashkenazi Jew, so it needs to be 100% kosher for Passover, and I don't eat rice or corn during Passover.

Are you aware that most oats contain gluten? I don't know what to say, as I'm trying to figure this one out myself...but I can have rice. So I'll bring rice crackers, but there are CC problems, etc.

Rice crackers are a problem for me, religiously, on Passover. I would not allow any guests to bring rice products into my kosher-for-Passover kitchen.

Thanks for the link!

My other option is to try spelt matza. I know it's not gluten free, but it's lower in gluten than wheat and maybe I could tolerate it for one week a year. Or maybe it will make me very sick and I'll feel lousy for all of Passover. :(

Spelt is not a good option for someone following a gluten-free diet. I hope you can use the gluten-free oat ones instead.

Be careful out there.

Ok, a friend of mine who lives close by was doing shopping in one of the "kosher stores" about a 40 minute drive away, and she was able to pick up the gluten-free oat matza for me. :) It cost $30 for a one pound box, so I'm just getting the one box this year; I'll still get the cheaper matzah for other family members so the oat matzah won't get used up quite as fast.

Had it been cheaper, I would have gotten enough oat matzah for everybody and kept the house 100% gluten-free for Pesach. I'm definitely not planning to do any cooking with matzah of any kind, but I won't limit the kids if they want matzah with butter, cream cheese, and/or jelly.

      Build muscle back feeling weak?

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      I put on over 12kg by eating protein with every meal, 3 to 5 times a day. Eggs, Chicken, Tuna, Turkey etc. I stay away from too much red meat as it can be inflammatory. Scott is correct. I've come across a bunch of Coeliac PT's on Tiktok and Instagram. They all say the same thing, the key is getting enough protein and consistency.

      Build muscle back feeling weak?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's great to hear that eliminating gluten has helped alleviate symptoms like eye burning, which is a significant and positive change. The first and most important step is to ensure you're consuming enough protein throughout the day to support muscle repair and growth, which can be challenging with a busy schedule. Since you're already physically active at work, adding focused strength training just 2-3 times per week can make a major difference. Bodyweight exercises like squats, push-ups (modified if needed), and lunges, or using resistance bands at home, are excellent, efficient places to start. Remember, consistency with these short sessions and prioritizing post-workout recovery, including good sleep and hydration, are just as crucial as the workouts themselves. It's a smart, gradual process at any age.

      suggest gluten free food

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Trader Joe's carries a good variety of affordable gluten-free foods like bagels, hamburger buns, pasta, etc. I like Franz Gluten Free bread, which is available at my local Costco. Food For Life and Little Northern Bakehouse (advertisers here) also make excellent gluten-free breads. Costco also sells gluten-free pizzas, crackers, gravy, etc.
