Does anyone on this site subscribe to the "gluten free baking" website? There is a $34.99 membership fee. Just wondering if it is worth the money?

I'm new to posting on this forum, I have been reading quite a bit though.

I've been signed up for the gluten free baking website and I have to say for me it was well worth it. I have found the Tom Sawyer baking flour and also came across the Better Batter flour which I haven't tried yet. The tom sawyer flour so far has been a great substitute for regular flour. I have only tried a choc. chip cookie square so far with it and that turned out really good.

That being said, I still use her recipes. I started with the free cookie recipe before signing up and it was an awesome replacement. I have since learned a few tricks about cooking with gluten free flours. According to her website, she doesn't use a special mix because breads, cookies and cakes, etc. require different flours in different amounts.

She has many categories of recipes including bread, quick bread, cake, cookies, breakfasts, etc. I know if you have a recipe you've tried to recreate gluten free, you can send her the original recipe and she will try to duplicate it. sometimes it may take a while to duplicate recipes, but it could be well worth it if you miss something foodwise. She is a culinary chef-and I think it is her hubby who has celiac-not her, so she can make the recipe using normal wheat ingredients, then makes it gluten free also so she knows it tastes the same.

just my 2 cents worth, but i would definately renew my subscription when it runs out.

Hey Heather, welcome to the site. I have learned so much here. Hope you do also. Thanks for your input. I am still not sure if I want to spend the money. Have you ended up with a lot of spam once you joined her site?

      Concerning the EMA positive result, the EMA was the original blood test developed to detect celiac disease and has largely been replaced by the tTG-IGA which has a similar reliability confidence but is much less expensive to run. Yes, a positive EMA is very strong evidence of celiac disease but not foolproof. In the UK, a tTG-IGA score that is 10x normal or greater will often result in foregoing the endoscopy/biopsy. Weaker positives on the tTG-IGA still trigger the endoscopy/biopsy. That protocol is being considered in the US but is not yet in place.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @mike101020! First, what was the reference range for the ttg-iga blood test? Can't tell much from the raw score you gave because different labs use different reference ranges. Second, there are some non celiac medical conditions, some medications and even some non-gluten food proteins that can cause elevated celiac blood antibodies in some individuals. The most likely explanation is celiac disease but it is not quite a slam dunk. The endoscopy/biopsy is considered the gold standard for celiac disease diagnosis and serves as confirmation of elevated blood antibody levels from the blood testing.

      Vitamin D status in the UK is even worse than the US.  vitamin D is essential for fighting bone loss and dental health and resistance to infection.  Mental health and depression can also be affected by vitamin D deficiency.  Perhaps low D is the reason that some suffer from multiple autoimmune diseases.  In studies, low D is a factor in almost all of the autoimmune diseases that it has been studied in. Even while searching for your diagnosis, testing your 25(OH)D status and improving it my help your general wellness. Vitamin D Deficiency Affects 60% in Britain: How to Fix It?

      Hi, I recently was informed by my doctor that I had scored 9.8 on my ttgl blood test and a follow up EMA test was positive.   I am no waiting for a biopsy but have read online that if your EMA is positive then that pretty much confirms celiac. However is this actually true because if it it is what is the point of the biopsy?   Thanks for any help

      Hey there, have you been tested for allergies? You may not only have celiac disease but be allergic. I have celiac disease and am allergic to Barley, wheat and rye.
