I've been doing some research into some cook books and came upon this one:

Gluten-free, Sugar-free Cooking: Over 200 Delicious Recipes to Help You Live a Healthier, Allergy-Free Life

by Susan O'Brien, Robert H. Lerman, Barb Schlitz

Do any of you have this one? The only thing I don't see mentioned in the review is if this cookbook offers help for those that have egg allergy and not having to use an egg replacer as I have not had much luck with them. I've been living gluten free for about a year and a half now so I am good with the basics but I also struggle with cholesterol and I'm also trying to shed about 30 unwanted pounds so the above cookbook looks like a good possibility but isn't available in the local bookstores for me to check out before I buy it.

If any of you can recommend another book it would be great too!

Thanks

Hi Ariauna,

I don't have the cookbook you mentioned, but you can view some of it on: Open Original Shared Link

A cookbook I do have that I love is The Gluten Free Almond Flour Cookbook by Elana Amsterdam.

Although many of her recipes include eggs, there are many that don't, including: pecan pie, fruit crisps and crumbles, many of her cookies, shortbread squares. She also has many amazing frostings and dessert sauces that don't have eggs.

So even if I couldn't eat eggs I would still love this book, and I highly recommend it to you. The recipes are so good I think you will be inspired to make the ones work that do have eggs.

Best wishes!

Pat

      Celiac symptoms but negative endoscopy and antibody test + family history of gastro problems

      By NoriTori · Posted

      @Scott Adams No one said anything about eating gluten consistently until testing, the appointment was scheduled and an address was given. I don't even have access to the results as it stands. I was just told "everything looks fine, but slight irritation." I don't know if they took a biopsy because I have no access to the results. I don't know how many samples they took (I recently learned they're supposed to take more than one), I don't know what things looked like internally, it was just word of mouth and I didn't know any better to pry and get copies of everything. And I know! I also have chronic Anemia, never truly resolved UNTIL I went gluten free, and low vitamin D (fairly normal in black community), and low creatine (also resolved with gluten free diet). I plan to request a new dermatologist! As well as a referral to Gastro. Food/symptom diary is a great idea though. I have no way of cooking as it stands, so even just the basics wouldn't work for me.

      @NoriTori, "gluten intolerance" is a general term that can refer to either celiac disease or NCGS. NCGS is often referred to as "gluten sensitivity" for short. Though, admittedly, there is still a great deal of inconsistency in the use of terms by the general public.

      @trents A gluten intolerance is a real possibility! I never ruled it out, but am keen on finding out the EXACT cause. I'd want testing done again to be sure it's not celiac, or SIBO (which I've considered) or other digestive disorder. Celiac seems the most pertinent considering its implications.

      Thanks so much Scott. I would be incredibly grateful to the gluten gods if eliminating oats was the magic cure. In the meantime, it's nice to have moral support!

      Eating gluten before blood test

      By trents · Posted

      Understood. And don't beat yourself up about this. Many are in the same boat as you, having experimented with the gluten-free diet before getting formerly tested. It is a logical, common sense approach when you don't have the knowledge about how testing works or you don't have the healthcare resources to afford testing. And some experience such severe reactions to gluten that it is impossible to get through the gluten challenge in order to get tested. So, they must live with the ambiguity of not knowing for sure if they suffer from celiac disease or NCGS. But at the end of the day, the antidote is the same for both. Namely, life-ling abstinence from gluten. Recently there was an article on posted on this forum about the develop of a new testing method for diagnosing celiac disease that do not require a gluten challenge. It is still in the developmental stage and probably years away from becoming main streams even if it pans out. But there is hope at least.
