Bionaturae Organic Gluten Free Pasta


Roda

Recommended Posts

Roda Rising Star

I recently saw this at our local health food store and decided to try it. I have tried Tinkyada, Deboyles, and Ancient Harvest and have not been too impressed, so I was not going to get my hopes up on this one. Well I cooked some tonight and it was really good the best I have tried yet. The only suggestion I have is to cut the amount of salt it calls for in half at least or it will be too salty. Of course some people may like that. Unfortunately for all of you that are soy intolerant it does have soy in it. Here is the link: Open Original Shared Link

I swear I've seen this at Hy-Vee (midwest grocery chain) before. Next time I go grocery shopping, I'll double check. Thanks for the tip

Many regular stores carry Bionaturae products, but not the gluten-free. I liked Bionaturae gluten-free the first few times I tried it, but then must have run into a couple of bad batches. Switched to Tinkyada and never went back.

This is by far my favorite of all the gluten-free pastas I have tried, I regularly have at least a couple bags of the penne and spaghetti in my house.

It works great whether you want to make a baked pasta, regular red sauce, or maybe even some butter/cheese type deal. I have just recently been eating the spaghetti more, and I actually am starting to like that even more than the penne which is great. First "normal" tasting pasta (in my opinion) yet, I really don't like the Tinkayda for some reason, some wierd taste to it that I can never get past.

Also, if anyone ever makes baked mac and cheese, they do have elbow macorini (I've only found this at one store) but the penne actually works REALLY well with making baked mac and cheese, the cheeses melts right into the lines in the pene and into the tubes themselves and just comes out delicious. Just a reccomendation :-)

I love bionaturae. It's pretty much the only kind of pasta I buy now.

      Since I've been a member of this forum,  I've seen some people write that they have not been able to tolerate corn, and others nightshades - tomatoes, potatoes, eggplant, and peppers (including bell peppers, chili peppers, and paprika).    However, intolerances can be short term, just while you are healing.    So bear this in mind if you start dropping certain foods from your diet - you may well be able to eat them again once you are healed.

      Welcome to the forum, @Izelle! Normally, the diagnosis of celiac disease involves two stages.  The first stage involves a simple blood test that looks for antibodies that are pretty specific to celiac disease. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that attacks the lining of the small bowel which produces antibodies that can be detected in the blood with tests specifically designed for this purpose. There are a number of these tests that can be run. Some are more specific for celiac disease and thus more reliable than others. The two most common antibody tests ordered by physicians when diagnosing celiac disease are the "total IGA" and the "tTG-IGA" test. At least these two should always be ordered. Here is a an article outlining the subject matter of celiac antibody tests:  If the tTG-IGA levels are 10x normal then it is becoming common practice in some countries to grant a celiac diagnosis on the bloodwork alone. The second stage involves an endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining to look for the damage to the small bowel lining typically caused by celiac disease's inflammatory process over time. This is usually done in response to one or more positives from the blood antibody testing and constitutes confirmation of the antibody testing to eliminate the possibility of false positives.

      Hi there, Please can you tell me exactly how this disease is diagnosed? I am also from South Africa Regards Izelle

      Thank you for saying that. That doctor diagnosed me with IBS with no follow-up so the relationship is already concluded. If I pursue diagnosis further I'll request someone else.

      Hey everyone. Thanks again for your suggestions. I wanted to give an update and ask for some follow-up suggestions from you all.  So I did go through all of my food items and stopped eating things that were “gluten free” and switched over to the “certified gluten free” ones (the ones with the g symbol). I also stayed away from restaurants except once and there I ordered something raw vegan and gluten free hoping for the best. I also stayed away from oats and soy and dairy. I've also been increasing my vitamin B complex. I've been doing this for about 12 days and while I know that's not that long, I'm still getting sick. Sometimes having diarrhea. Sometimes getting headaches and having necklaces. Sometimes waking up feeling horrible brain fog. I did go to my GI doc and they did a blood test and found my TtG-IgA was in the negative range (and a lower number than I'd had before). I also had normal levels of CRP. My stool showed no elevation of calprotectin and no pathogens. My GI doc said the symptoms could be related to a gluten exposure or to IBS. I'm keeping a food diary to see if I can narrow down whats going on. I know I have good days and bad days and Im trying to isolate what makes a good day versus a bad day. Generally so far it looks like if it eat something super cautious like raw vegetables that I chopped myself into a salad and almonds, im fine but if I eat something more complex including, say, chicken and rice (even if packaged and certified gluten free or made by me with gluten free ingredients), it may not go so well. I may end up with either a headache, neck tension, brain fog, and/or diarrhea that day or the morning after. Any other thoughts or suggestions? I am planning to start tracking my foods again but I wanted to do it in more detail this time (maybe down to the ingredient level) so are there any common ingredients that celiacs have issues with that you all know of that I should track? I've got dairy, oats, soy, eggs, corn, peas, lentils on my “watch list”. Other things I should add? I'm hoping if I track for another two weeks I can maybe pin down some sensitivities. Appreciate the help and tips. Thank you so much!!
