Organic Options?

In my research (which I will admit is not extensive) I am not seeing a lot of organic options for gluten-free flours and products. If my son (3 yo) does have it it seems like I am going to have to choose between gluten-free and organic and I HATE that! I have spent the last 3 years of his life being very mindful of what and where his food comes from. I hope I am just not looking in the right places for gluten-free organics.

I googled:

Open Original Shared Link

https://www.celiac.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=106

Also saw organic coconut flour, Arrowhead Mills organic brown rice flour.

There are some certified organic gluten-free flours at Open Original Shared Link, though not all of their gluten-free flours are organic. Sad but true.

Caution about Arrowhead Mills flours: Several members of this board (including myself) have reported CC (Cross-Contamination) issues with their so-called gluten-free products. Last I checked, they are not processed in dedicated gluten-free facilities.

Organic Quinoa is a complete gluten-free protein and is readily available in both white and red at health food stores and at some main stream supermarkets like Wegman's.

Thanks for all the input!

As I am looking more and more I see some options but it just doesn't seem like much. If we have to go gluten-free (still trying to navigate the tests) all the packaged stuff requires eggs or milk and butter and stuff which we can't do.

whole natural foods can be both organic and gluten free. Broccoli, lettuce, carrots, green peppers, beef, chicken, apples, strawberries, etc etc etc...

You don't have to eat packaged gluten free foods to be gluten free. Mother Nature made a whole bunch of stuff already! :D

Sorry, I should have been more specific. I was looking for things like baking mixes and flours as well as pastas.

      I see it everyday on my feeds. They go out and buy gluten-free processed products and wonder why they can't heal their guts. I don't think they take it as a serious immune disease. They pick up things off the internet which is so far out in left field. Some days I would just like to scream. So much better when we had support groups and being able to teach...

      Thank you for the kind words!

Click the links to compare nutritional values.  Both are made with sugar, not high fructose corn syrup.  I use them as a gluten free substitute for a peanut butter sandwich.  Try her on grass fed, pasture fed milk. While I get heartburn at night from commercial dairy milk, I do not from 'grassmilk'.

I just had an EMA blood test because I haven't had one since my Doctor moved away.  Got test results today, doctor ordered a D3 vitamin test.  Now you know what  type of doctors we have.  Now I will have to pay for this test because she just tested my D3 end of December, and still have no idea about my EMA.

      Thank you for the kind words! I keep thinking that things in the medical community are improving, but a shocking number of people still post here who have already discovered gluten is their issue, and their doctors ordered a blood test and/or endoscopy for celiac disease, yet never mentioned that the protocol for such screening requires them to be eating gluten daily for weeks beforehand. Many have already gone gluten-free during their pre-screening period, thus their test results end up false negative, leaving them confused and sometimes untreated. It is sad that so few doctors attended your workshops, but it doesn't surprise me. It seems like the protocols for any type of screening should just pop up on their computer screens whenever any type of medical test is ordered, not just for celiac disease--such basic technological solutions could actually educate those in the medical community over time.
