what bread maker do you suggest? bready seems like it does all the work for you with limited cleaning but there are only a few bread choices... and the others.... WHAT SHOULD I DO!?!?!

I finally took the plunge and purchased a Zojirushi BBCCX20.I have been thinking about it for about a year....it's expensive $200. Have not had a chance to try it out yet....it arrived late in the day yesterday, and we had a 3 hour electrical outage!!

I have an assortment of bread makers...about 4 at last count, and will donate them all to the Goodwill except 1, which will be my husband's machine. There's no reason why you can't use an inexpensive bread machine....I have an Oster, Chefmate, Zo (old one) and Homebaker, or something like that.....all purchased almost new at thrift stores. I've used all of them to make gluten free bread with OK results. Am still looking for the perfect recipe that suits my taste, and am coming close to that. None of my previous machines would allow me to choose just 1 rise. Often I would use the machine to just mix the dough, and then pop it into a loaf pan, let it rise, then into the oven. I had so many machines because 2 were left on the motorhome,2 at home. I prefer the removable kneading blade, which I remove ....when I remember!

I think Friday will be the day I try out the Zojirushi...would like to try adding some Expandex to a recipe, and have not decided which one to use yet.

Ginsou, I have the same Zoji and I **love** it!!

It's easy to program and you are going to use the Memory cycle almost exclusively unless you do cakes. This way you can set a certain number of minutes to preheat, knead, rise (rise 3 only) and bake. And off you go. You are going to love it.

As for the Expandex, though, it has been suggested to me by someone who is better at baking that I am, that it doesn't work all that well in the bread machine and that you are best off using Expandex in combination with a regular oven. But if you experiment, please let me know how it went. The only loaf I made with Expandex in the bread machine collapsed in the middle though it did bake through. And the texture was most def. more spongy.

      Hi all I’ve been celiac for 4 years now, I’ve done pretty well to avoid it thus far. Last night I took the wrong pizza out of the freezer and ate the whole lot!! The non gluten and gluten pizza boxes are both very similar.   2 hours later I was throwing up violently on my hands and knees over the loo.  .horrendous stomach pains,  My hair was wet from sweat every part of my body was wet. What an awful experience, just had a bad headache today  fortunately.    Is their any products/pills anyone takes if they have realised they have just been glutened to make the symptoms a little less worse.  thanks

      Yes, do take your B Complex with Benfotiamine or Thiamax.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins in the B Complex to make energy and enzymes, so best to take them together earlier in your day.  Taking them too close to bedtime can keep you too energetic to go to sleep.   The Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine is Benfotiamine and Thiamine Hydrochloride, another form of thiamine the body likes.  The Thiamine HCl just helps the Benfotiamine work better.   Read the label for how many milligrams are in them.  The Mega Benfotiamine is 250 mgs.  Another Benfothiamine has 100 mgs.  You might want to start with the 100 mg.    I like to take Thiamax in the morning with a B Complex at breakfast.  I take the Benfotiamine with another meal.  You can take your multivitamin with Benfotiamine at lunch.   Add a magnesium supplement, too.  Thiamine needs magnesium to make some important enzymes.  Life Extension makes Neuro-Mag, Magnesium Threonate, which is really beneficial.  (Don't take Magnesium Oxide.  It's not absorbed well, instead it pulls water into the digestive tract and is used to relieve constipation.)  I'm not a big fan of multivitamins because they don't always dissolve well in our intestines, and give people a false sense of security.  (There's videos on how to test how well your multivitamin dissolves.).  Multivitamins don't prevent deficiencies and aren't strong enough to correct deficiencies.   I'm happy you are trying Thiamax and Benfotiamine!  Keep us posted on your progress!  I'm happy to answer any questions you may have.

      I looked further into Thiamax Vitamin B1 by objective nutrients and read all the great reviews. I think I will give this a try. I noticed only possible side affect is possibly the first week so body adjusts. Life Extensions carries Benfotiamine with Thiamine and the mega one you mentioned. Not sure if both in one is better or seperate. some reviews state a laxative affect as side affect. SHould I take with my super B complex or just these 2 and multivitamin? I will do further research but I appreciate the wonderful explanation you provided on Thiamine.

      Thanks I am mostly looking for everyday staples and easy meal ideas nothing too specialty if possible.

      There are other Celiac genes. HLA DQ 2 and HLA DQ 8 show up in people from Northern European descent.   People of Mediterranean descent have HLA DQ 7.  People of Asian descent have HLA DQ 9.   There's other Indigenous populations that have other HLA genes that code for Celiac disease.   Are you still having symptoms?   What do you include in your diet?  Are you vegetarian? Are you taking any prescription medication?  Omeprazole?  Metformin?   Do you have anemia?  Thyroid problems? Are you taking any vitamins or herbal supplements?
