Favorite/best Online Store To Purchase Food?

Hi everyone,

I was wondering which gluten free online store has the best selection and best prices? I'm looking to buy an amaranth product (either the grain or a hot cereal, etc.) online, but I'd like to buy it from a source that is known to have good prices and a nice selection, so I could perhaps order something else to ship with it.

Thank you!

I order from the big on-line place that "shall not be named" here because of spam to the site. (You know, big river)

Free delivery with the super saver discount. Make sure the seller is not an outside source or the shipping $ will cut out any of the savings of the ordering in bulk quantities.

I also order from lizlovely. The have some gluten free, egg free chocolate fudge cookies that will put you into chocolate coma. code: lizrocks gets you a discount. The cookies are not cheap, but they are worth the $.

You might try VitaCost.com. They don't have everything, but their prices are pretty good.

I'd try this site here. Not sure if they carry that product or not.

I think the Gluten Free Mall that sponsors this site has one of the better online selections. I've always found their prices reasonable and stuff ships really fast. Open Original Shared Link

Amazon's prices on gluten-free products are fairly competitively priced.

For gluten-free grains, flours and other things, I find Open Original Shared Link has a nice selection and comparatively good prices.

But do be careful with amaranth. In my experience, both the grain and flour seem quite prone to mold. Smell it as soon as you get it, to make sure it's ok. I generally keep most of it frozen so it won't spoil before I get a chance to use it. Prepackaged ready-to-eat cereals are probably not so susceptible, unless the manufacturer started with moldy grain.

I'm a big fan of Nuts Online. Their Open Original Shared Link is certified gluten free. They have a ton of other gluten-free products as well, including some Open Original Shared Link. Shipping is pretty fast and I've been very satisfied with the products.

      Struggling to get into a good pattern

      By cristiana · Posted

      I think going back to your GI isn't a bad idea - my visits to the GI did not stop following my diagnosis as I had annoying issues on and off for some time.  Thankfully he is a fantastic GI, with  a great sense of humour, so it wasn't a chore to see him again although I'd rather not have had to, obviously!  But I needed my mind to be put at rest as my symptoms didn't seem to go away overnight as I'd hoped they would.  Initially I recall he recommended I went Dairy Free for three weeks, and he told me it would take that time to see an effect.  At that time, even lactose free milk went straight through me, so it is important, I would say, to even avoid that during a Dairy Free trial. My ongoing symptoms were bloating which did respond a bit to that trial.   However, within about 18 months there was a return to a very sore stomach, plus various aches and pains.   It turned out some gluten was sneaking in with my iron supplement (I was buying Floradix instead of Floravital), but I also think the dishwasher, the oven and eating out were contributors, too. Before my numbers normalised (from memory, about eight years!) I had several follow up appointments and a few more tests, but things gradually did get better.  Having read many accounts on this forum over the years, I don't think it is uncommon for symptoms to get a bit worse before getting better, that was certainly the case with me.  Your gut is damaged so you may well have issues digesting other food in the short term. But do try to be as scrupulously gluten free as you can possibly be as a first step, and I'd definitely try a three week Dairy Free trial.   Your villi because they are damaged are not able to create the lactase required to digest dairy at this time so you may well see some improvement if you come off dairy for a while.  Perhaps keeping a food diary of what you eat, where you eat it, whilst a bit onerous to do, will help identify foods that are causing issues.  For a while, apart from oats, I found peas, lentils and soya products hugely aggravating.  Things should calm down.

      Thankfully those are normal. B12 was on the low end of the normal range when I first got diagnosed. When I last got it checked, it had come up a lot (455 last time checked).

      mystery gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/  I didn't notice any gluten ingredients in Kirkland Almond non-dairy beverage, however it does contain Locust Bean Gum. Some gums may cause IBS-type issues in some people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity:

      Have you had B12 levels checked?

      For the past few months, I've been taking several supplements (a multi-vitamin, an iron supplement, a vitamin C supplement, and a magnesium supplement), all of which state that they are gluten free on the label.
