In a dry 8" fry pan, pour millet, and put on medium heat. Shake millet around to

toast evenly and keep from burning, for about 5-10 minutes, until you get a nice

I am not rice intolerant but have been using a 3 way mixture of amaranth, sorghum, and millet flour in a lot of baking experiments, and getting nice results, especially if mixed with some almond meal and another "white" starch such as cornstarch or potato or tapioca. I'm using oil instead of butter. Makes a quick bread that tastes whole-grain like, especially if some honey or agave is added for sweetener. It works perfectly in the small cast iron skillet but the last loaf pan came out ever so slightly crumbly without dairy, so I'm going to try tweaking it just a little more.

I'm not sure what will happen if I add flax meal, as I don't do well with flax oil and have been hesitant to experiment unless I have somebody else to feed the results to.

Can you do eggs, I think, from your signature?

yumm yumm yumm

as soon as I get the blood sugar back down where I can have any carbs -- this is on top of the list.

the 3 japanese milets are all different sizes.. guess I should translate the carbs on the label.

maybe you just have to visit japan or hawaii and pick up some of this stuff!

Not really -- its only been 2 weeks and i'm still unable to get myself balanced to where I can stop passing out and have at least a little energy to accomplish something. Been limiting myself to steamed veggies dipped in mustards. ( really is yummy) and soups I make. no carbs at all.

i am looking forward to trying new things once I can get beyond this current thing. Much harder to deal with than I would have thought.

Thanks much -- and I was serious if you want to email me an address. Some of these things I will not be able to have for a long time

if at all and I'm sure you would like playing with the nuka, awa and konnyaku.. that is if I explain them <G>

Suspect Margy is handling things better than I am. She broke both sides of her ankle early in the year so I had to wait on her -- all in all I prefer that than to have to be waited on!

Do have to take insulin pills now -- they are still playing with types and mg. as well as once or twice a day.

Just cant find the balance so the other symptoms go away.

Did make a great dinner tonight. steamed fresh beet greens & stems, gold beets with a few turnips.

a few chopped pea pods, bok choy and drizzled in a miso garlic sauce.. I can still eat miso and garlic!.

1 gram of carb in the miso and that was it.

need to see how nutso my glucose goes tonight.

take care

------------------------------

OH NO, Ken! I hate passing out! Your poor wife- she must me sick about all this!

Do you have to take insulin? Or just dietary restrictions?

I hope you can eat more substantial food very very soon. B)

Thank you Ken for the offer- you take care of yourself right now-

:)

I can't have potato but I can have tapioca & cornstarch!

Hey Sickchick,

Thanks for the great sounding recipe. I too am nightshade intolerant and I sub arrowroot flour in when potato flour is in a recipe. I also sub sorghum for rice flour regularly (I just like the taste better, so far not rice intolerant. I'm gluten, dairy, legume, nightshade and carregeenan intolerant that I know of so far).

I tried this tonight. I did like the flavor of this but was not fond of the consistency. I like the millet less creamy. I like it drier and more firm. I guess I could cut back on the broth.

Try halfing the liquid and cooking it @ shorter time? :)

Thanks for being a trooper though~ :lol:

Wonka carageenan is the devil isn't it? LOL!! :ph34r: it does worse things to my body than dairy! :lol:

Ken....I love beets- I oven roast them on sheet pan w a teeeny bit of olive oil and salt.

      This may be the problem. Every time you eat gluten it is like giving a booster shot to your immune system, telling it to react and produce antibodies again.

      Scott, I am mostly asymptomatic. I was diagnosed based on high antibodies, low ferritin (3) and low vitamin D (10). I wasn't able to get in for the biopsy until 3 months after the blood test came back. I was supposed to keep eating gluten during this time. Well why would I continue doing something that I know to be harmful for 3 more months to just get...

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      I was undiagnosed for decades. My ferritin when checked in 2003 was 3. It never went above 10 in the next 20 years. I was just told to "take iron". I finally requested the TTgIgA test in 2023 when I was well and truly done with the chronic fatigue and feeling awful. My numbers were off the charts on the whole panel. they offered me an endoscopic biopsy ...

      Is it gluten?

      Scott, I agree with everything you said except the term "false negative". It should be a "true negative" just plain negative. I actually looked up true/false negative/positive as it pertains to testing. The term "false negative" would be correct if you are positive (have anti-bodies) and the test did not pick them up. That would be a problem with the "test...

I wasn't able to get in for the biopsy until 3 months after the blood test came back. I was supposed to keep eating gluten during this time. Well why would I continue doing something that I know to be harmful for 3 more months to just get this test? So I did quit gluten and had the biopsy. It was negative for celiacs. I continued gluten free with iron supps and my ferritin came back up to a reasonable, but not great level of around 30-35.  Could there be something else going on? Is there any reason why my antibodies would be high (>80) with a negative biopsy? could me intestines have healed that quickly (3 months)?  I'm having a hard time staying gluten free because I am asymptomatic and i'm wondering about that biopsy. I do have the celiacs gene, and all of the antibody tests have always come back high. I recently had them tested again. Still very high. I am gluten free mostly, but not totally. I will occasionally eat something with gluten, but try to keep to a minimum. It's really hard when the immediate consequences are nil.  with high antibodies, the gene, but a negative biopsy (after 3 months strict gluten-free), do i really have celiacs? please say no. lol. i think i know the answer.  Asa

My numbers were off the charts on the whole panel.  they offered me an endoscopic biopsy 3 months later, but that i would need to continue eating gluten for it to be accurate. so i quit eating gluten and my intestine had healed by the time i had the biopsy (i'm guessing??). Why else would my TTgIgA be so high if not celiacs? Anyway, your ferritin will rise as your intestine heals and take HEME iron (brand 4 arrows). I took 20mg of this with vitamin c and lactoferrin and my ferritin went up, now sits around 35.  you will feel dramatically better getting your ferritin up, and you can do it orally with the right supplements. I wouldn't get an infusion, you will get as good or better results taking heme iron/vc/lf.

I actually looked up true/false negative/positive as it pertains to testing. The term "false negative" would be correct if you are positive (have anti-bodies) and the test did not pick them up. That would be a problem with the "test" itself. If you were gluten-free and got tested, you more than likely would test "true" negative or just negative. This means that the gluten-free diet is working and no anti-bodies should be present. I know it sounds confusing and if you don't agree feel free to respond.
