I bought some but don't know what to do with it. There are no real instructions on the package.

Sounds interesting. I looked up the ingredients:

Gluten Free Gluten Replacer

Superfine rice flour, pea extract, maize starch, potato starch, vegetable derived gums and cellulose: guar gum, methylcellulose, carboxymethylcellulose, monoglycerides from vegetable

I've used it before. I use it in small amounts, like if the recipe called for zantham gum or guar gum it would be a small amount in ratio to the entire amount of dough/batter. It does help hold things together. I may have had better luck if there were clear directions on the bag.

It was OK but I started using pre-made gluten free flour (gluten free pantry or kinniknick) and I don't think it is neccessary to add this ingredient. If I ever try something like cinnamon rolls I would use anything to get closer to the right texture.

How do you get this stuff? I can't find it on their website and a Google search doesn't help either.

I read about it on their website, THEY say it is better than xanthan gum. But I don't mind xanthan gum I don't have any complaints with anything I've made. They say it is cheaper than xanthan gum but once you add the VERY high shipping, it's more. The company is overseas. I found xanthan gum online for a whole lot cheaper than buying in the store even with the shipping.

On another forum I was reading someone posted that they liked it way more than xanthan gum. I'll look up the website, I think I bookmarked it.

I got it online but I don't remember where.

I've seen it on amazon.

If you are going to order you can go through goodsearch . com and donate a percentage of your net purchase to a charity that you choose.

      Hi,  My 7 year daughter has complained of this in the past, which I thought were part of her glutening symptom, but more recently I have come to figure out it's part of her histamine overload symptom. This one symptom was part of her broader profile, which included irritability, extreme hunger, confusion, post-nasal drip. You might want to look up "histamine intolerance". I wish I had known of this at the time of her diagnosis, life would have been much easier.  I hope you are able to figure out.

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior?

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.
