Bob's Red Mill

Just curious on everyones opinion on Bob's Red Mill products. I am newley diagnosed and have made several BRM products and have gotten sick on all of them!!

I made the cake-got super sick

I made the bread-got sick

I made the pizza crust-you guessed it got sick. the only two things i used from BRM that didnt hurt me were the pancakes and the brownie mix.

What gives!!!!!! I find myself getting so discouraged. I feel like i am groping in the dark. Are there some good books maybe?? I dont know how to keep myself healthy!

Read the labels on the packages and see if any of the ingredients are different. This might give you a clue as to what's bothering you.

Since you are still new to the gluten-free diet, look for how much dairy and soy you are eating. Some people need to avoid these while they heal.

Myself as well as many others react from Bob's Red Mill products...

I react to the BRM whole-grain bread, but so far, that's it. I haven't tried much of their stuff, though. I tend to go for Pamela's when there's an option.

I had problems with BRM years ago before they changed their factory, and their cc issues. I buy the packages that are clearly labelled gluten-free and I have not had any problems in the past year. Try to figure out if there is one ingredient bothering you. I couldn't eat dairy for the first year or so of being gluten-free. For some reason, tapioca bothers me.

I suppose i will try reducing my dairy intake and i will be certainly staying away from BRM from now on. Thanks for the help everyone!

I really love Bob's Red Mill and think they make some great products. I think it can cause some problems for people because they use a lot of bean flours, and the added fiber creates some upset in some people. And I think beans are something that some people are more sensitive to than others.

I actually just had the pizza crust tonight. I loaded it with toppings, and sometimes when I go a little overboard I get digestion problems.... What else can you expect from cheese, peperoni (hormel's is gluten-free), sausage (Jones breakfast sausage, pepers, onions, garlic, and more cheese. It's a lot to handle, and sometimes I dive in without remembering to take a digesting tablet. (Enzymedica Digest Pills)

That's the only time BRM pizza crust bothers me... but I highly doubt it is the crust. hehe

I totally agree Wendy! For me, I am also intolerant of soy and think that I cross react with the bean products and guar gum that BRM uses since they are all legumes like soy, thats the only thing I can figure out as to why I react to their products.

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions...

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!
