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.

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
