Know Anything About Agvantage Flours?

Open Original Shared Link

Because of nut allergies in our family, we cannot use Bob's Red Mills. I am really wanting to get some sorghum flour but will have to order. This site says they are gluten free and nut free. The prices seem reasonable compared with other brands. Has anyone tried them? I'm not expecting it to be like the superfine versions but if it's good enough, that's good enough. lol

I did call and talk to a lady there who was very nice. When she found out we are new to gluten-free eating, she offered to send me some recipes and such.

Well, I haven't tried Agvantage, but I'm not impressed with their prices anyway.

Have you checked Open Original Shared Link? I know they are careful about CC with gluten, so I'd like to think there wouldn't be a problem with nuts either.

Also check Open Original Shared Link. I think sorghum is all they do.

And of course there's the Open Original Shared Link.

Thanks for the input! I called Barry Farms and they could not tell me any info on nut contamination since they just repackage it. However, Twin Valley was able to tell me that there would not be any nut contamination since they don't handle nuts at all. And their prices are better, as you indicated.

Thanks! It's hard to remember to keep both gluten free AND nut free in mind as I'm searching out products. Last week, I was so excited to find that some Chex cereals are gluten-free that I also bought the chocolate one, which has a nut warning. Learning along the way!

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.    
    • Scott Adams
      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?

      @JettaGirl, "Coeliac" is the British spelling of "celiac". Same disease. 
    • JettaGirl
      This may sound ridiculous but is this supposed to say Celiacs? I looked up Coeliacs because you never know, there’s a lot of diseases related to a disease that they come up with similar names for. It’s probably meant to say Celiacs but I just wanted to confirm.
