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.

      I refused to do the gluten challenge for a long time because I knew how sick I would be: I have always had and still have positive antibodies and have so many symptoms my  GI was 💯 sure I would have a positive biopsy. I didn’t want to make myself sick to get a negative biopsy and be more confused by all this.  He couldn’t guarantee me a negative biopsy meant no celiac bc there may not be damage yet or it’s possible to miss biopsies where there’s damage but he was so sure and convinced me I needed that biopsy I went back on gluten. It was a terrible experience! I took pictures of the bloating and swelling and weight gain during the challenge. I gained 9 pounds, looked pregnant, was in pain , couldn’t work or function without long naps and the brain fog was debilitating. And in the end he didn’t get a positive biopsy… so I wish I had never wasted my time or health going through it. I haven’t been truly straightened  out since and I am currently battling a shingles infection at 43 and I can’t help but wonder if the stress I put my body under to try and get an official diagnosis has caused all this. Best of luck to you - whatever you decide. It’s not a fun thing to go through and I still don’t have the answers I was looking for

      It's completely understandable to struggle with the gluten challenge, especially when it impacts your health and studies so significantly. Your experience of feeling dramatically better without gluten is a powerful clue, whether it points to celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity. It's very wise of you and your doctor to pause the challenge until your holidays, prioritizing your immediate well-being and exams. To answer your questions, yes, it is possible for blood tests to be negative initially and become positive later as the disease progresses, which is why the biopsy remains the gold standard. Many, many people find the gluten challenge incredibly difficult due to the return of debilitating symptoms, so you are certainly not alone in that struggle. Wishing you the best for your exams and for obtaining clearer answers when you're able to proceed.

      It's smart that you're seeing the gastroenterologist tomorrow. While it's possible this is a severe and persistent inflammatory reaction to gluten, the fact that the pain is movement-dependent and localized with tenderness is important for your specialist to hear. It could indeed be significant inflammation, but it's also worth ruling out other overlapping issues that can affect those with celiac disease. Is it possible you got some gluten in your diet somehow? This could be a possible trigger. Hopefully, tomorrow's appointment will provide clearer answers and a path to relief so you can get back to your lectures and enjoy your weekend. Wishing you all the best for the consultation.

      Hello, I'm back with a second post. The first time I wrote, I mentioned the possibility that my symptoms were related to gluten. I did a genetic test in which I resulted to have the predisposition, but the results of my blood test were all negative without IgA deficiency. My doctor suggested that it was necessary to do a biopsy to rule out Celiac Disease. However, he said, because of my family history and my symptoms were strongly related to gluten, it was very possible that my Celiac Disease is developing and my antibodies may become positive in the future.  I tried to continue the gluten challenge for the biopsy, around 2-3 g of gluten per day, but it was enough to make me feel worse each passing day. I started developing anemia and other mild nutritional deficiencies, and it was really affecting my daily life. I'm a student and exams are coming up, so my doctor suggests me to strictly remove gluten until I feel better so I could study without problems until I could do the gluten challenge when I come back home for holidays. Since going gluten free, I feel like a completely different person. My mind is clearer, I have no stomach pain during the day, and even my nails improved within just two weeks. It could also be Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity, but of course I’ll need the biopsy to know for sure. I was wondering, has anyone else had negative blood tests at first and later tested positive? And has anyone struggled with the gluten challenge because of symptoms?
